""The Burial of Francis Bacon and Its Rosicrucian Significance"" by Walter Conrad Arensberg is a historical and philosophical exploration of the life and death of Francis Bacon, a renowned English philosopher and statesman. The book delves into Bacon's contributions to science, philosophy, and politics, and his involvement with the Rosicrucian movement, which was a secret society that sought to promote spiritual and intellectual enlightenment during the Renaissance. The author examines the circumstances surrounding Bacon's death and burial, which have been the subject of much controversy and speculation over the years. Arensberg argues that Bacon's burial was a carefully orchestrated event that was steeped in Rosicrucian symbolism and ritual, and that it was meant to convey a message about the power of knowledge and the importance of spiritual enlightenment. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the life and work of Francis Bacon, as well as the history of the Rosicrucian movement and its influence on Western thought and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
