Sobre IBD

One main object of this volume is to set forth the power, beauty, wealth, and wit of language that Francis Bacon possessed, ever since Dr. Samuel Johnson refreshed the English language with sparkling drops of the future when he said: 'A Dictionary of the English language might be compiled from Bacon’s works alone.' And as the quaint old French essayist, Montaigne, has said: 'The flowers I have gathered are from others; the string that ties them together is mine own.' A string to which the author ascribes great worth to be offered to the world of literature.
