    John Ford, Brian VickersBOOKComplete Works of John Ford2017

    John Ford was one of the leading playwrights of the generation following Shakespeare, best known for such plays as The Broken Heart, 'Tis Pity She's a Whore, and Perkin Warbeck. This is the first collected edition of his works since 1869. Volume 1 contains all of Ford's poems and prose works, mostly written before he became a dramatist. Honor Triumphant and The Monarchs' Meeting (1606) celebrate a visit from the King of Denmark. Fames Memoriall (…

    The speech of Themistocles the Athenian, which was haughty and arrogant in taking so much to himself, had been a grave and wise observation and censure, * applied at large * to others. Desired at a feast to touch a lute, he said, ‘He could not fiddle, but yet he could make a small town a great city.’ These words (holpen * a little with a metaphor) may express two differing abilities in those that deal in business of estate. * For if a true survey…

  • Francis Bacon, Feminist Historiography, and the Dominion of Nature

    Brian VickersARTICLEJournal of the History of Ideas2008Cited by: 3

    Perhaps no major figure has been subject to so many fluctuations in the history of ideas as Francis Bacon. In the 1980s three feminists (Sandra Harding, Evelyn Fox Keller, and Carolyn Merchant) set out to discredit Bacon, and the Scientific Revolution to which he contributed, by alleging that he had advocated "the rape and torture" of nature. Their indictment, which was well received in feminist circles, produced several effective rebuttals from …

  • Pour une véritable histoire de l'éloquence

    Open AccessBrian VickersARTICLEÉtudes littéraires2005

    Certains historiens modernes de la rhétorique mésestiment le rôle de l'éloquence : ils oublient que l' elocutio , exercice verbal de la persuasion, était considérée comme la fonction la plus importante. Au Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance, la rhétorique n'avait rien d'une théorie abstraite : il s'agissait d'un outil. Son ignorance du rôle vital de la rhétorique au XVIe siècle fait de l'ouvrage de Wilbur Samuel Howell, Logic and Rhetoric in England .…

  • Bacon for Our Time

    Brian VickersARTICLEEarly Science and Medicine2004

    This edition is in large part a monument to Graham Rees, who has devoted most of his life to the study of Francis Bacon. In 1971 he wrote a doctoral dissertation for the University of Birmingham on Francis Bacon's Natural Philosophy. In 1975 he published the first of a series of articles outlining what he calls Bacon's speculative philosophy, an element in Bacon's work which, he claims, has been insufficiently recognized by historians of science.…

    This is a major student edition of the text described as 'the first modern classic of English history'. Bacon's penetration into human motives, his life-long experience of politics and government, and his remarkable literary skills, render this History of the Reign of King Henry VII a major work of English literature and an important document in the history of political thought. The introduction places Bacon's History in the context of Renaissanc…
