3.1.4 Idols of the Theatre

<<According to the insight that the world is a stage, the Idols
of the Theatre are prejudices stemming from received or traditional
philosophical systems. These systems resemble plays in so far as they
render fictional worlds, which were never exposed to an experimental
check or *TO A TEST* by experience. The idols of the theatre thus have
their origin in dogmatic philosophy or in wrong laws of demonstration.
Bacon ends his presentation of the idols in Novum Organum, Book I ,
Aphorism LXVIII, with the remark that men should abjure and renounce
the qualities of idols, “and the understanding [must be] thoroughly
freed and cleansed” (Bacon, IV [1901], 69). He discusses the idols
together with the problem of information gained through the senses,
which must be corrected by the use of experiments
(Bacon, IV [1901], 27).>>

17th-century References to Shakespeare's Stratford Monument
http://shakespeareauthorship.com/monrefs.html
by David Kathman

<<One of the First Folios in the Folger Shakespeare Library (no. 26
according to the Folger numbering) contains three handwritten poems
on the last end page of the volume, written in a secretary hand
dating from approximately the 1620s. The first of these is
the poem from Shakespeare's monument in the Stratford church

. An Epitaph @ Mr William Shakspeare

.   Stay passenger why go'st thou by so fast
.   read if thou Canst, whom enuious death hath plact
.   within this monument: Shakespeare: with whom
.   quick nature dy'd; whose name doth deck this toombe
.   far more then cost; sith all that hee hath writt
.   leaues liueing art but Page vnto his witt.

The second is not recorded elsewhere, and goes as follows:

. Another vpon the same:

.  Heere Shakespeare lyes whome none but Death could *SHAKE*
.  and heere shall ly till judgement all awake;
.  when the last trumpet doth unclose his eyes
.  the wi{T}tie{S}t po{E}t in {T}he w[O]rld [S]hall *RISE*.
.               [Shakespeare Quarterly 39 (1988):60]

The third poem is the one on Shakespeare's tombstone,
also in the Stratford church

. an Epitaph (upon his Toombe stone incised)

.   Good ffriend for Iesus sake forbeare
.   To digg the dust inclosed heere
.   blest bee the man that pau'd these stones
.   but Cur'sd bee hee that mooues these bones.

Apparently, somebody went to Stratford and transcribed the poems off
the monument and the tombstone, then transcribed them into a copy of
the First Folio along with another epitaph. This writer seems not only
to have believed that the man buried in Stratford was the author of
the First Folio, but that he was "the wittiest poet in the world.">>

http://www.batesville.k12.in.us/physics/phynet/aboutscience/Inductive...

<<Not everyone from 300 B.C. to 1600 A.D. was willing to bow to the
authority of Aristotle. Many of Aristotle's arguments were faulty, but
where did he go wrong, and what was the right way to proceed? About
1600 A.D., it became apparent to several people - Galileo Galilei in
Italy, Francis Bacon in England, Tycho Brahe in Denmark, and others -
that there were no subtle logical errors in Aristotle's use of the
deductive method. The problem was that the deductive method, while
wildly successful in mathematics, did not fit well with scientific
investigations of nature. In order to use the deductive method, you
need to start with axioms - simple true statements about the way the
world works. Then you use these axioms to build your logical system of
nature. If your axioms are true, everything that follows will be true,
but Galileo and his contemporaries realized that the problem was that
it was enormously difficult to determine "simple true statements about
the way the world works". In fact, they realized that it should be the
goal of science - not the starting place - to determine what the
"simple true statements about the way the world works" really are!
Since 1600, the inductive method has been incredibly successful in
investigating nature - surely far more successful than its originators
could have imagined. The inductive method of investigation has become
so entrenched in science that it is often referred to as the
scientific method.>>

An Epistle answering to one that asked
to be Sealed of the Tribe of Ben.

Men that are safe, and sure, in all they do,
   Care not what Trials they are put unto;
They meet the Fire, the *TEST* , as Martyrs would;
   And though Opinion stamp them not, are Gold,

_To William, Earl of Pembroke, Lord Chamberlain_ The Author B. J.

I *HERE* offer to your Lordship the ripest of my Studies,
my Epigrams; which, though they carry danger
in the sound, do not therefore seek your shelter:
For, when I made them, I had nothing in my Conscience,
to expressing of which I did need a *Cypher* .
..........................................................
To King James.

How, best of Kings, dost thou a Scepter bear!
   How, best of Poets, dost thou Laurel wear!
But *TWO* Things Rare, the *FATES* had in their store,
   And gave thee both, to shew they could no more.
For such a Poet, while thy days were *GREEN* ,
   Thou wert, as chief of them are said t'have been:
And such a Prince thou art we daily see,
   As chief of those still *PROMISE* they will be.
Whom should my Muse then fly to, but the best
   Of Kings for Grace; of *Poets for my TEST* ?
