Summary

Step into The New Atlantis, Francis Bacon’s timeless masterpiece that blends exploration, philosophy, and early science fiction into one visionary work. Written in the 17th century, this classic novella follows the journey of European sailors who discover the mysterious island of Bensalem—a hidden civilization thriving on knowledge, discovery, and divine order. Through vivid storytelling and profound insight, Bacon presents a utopian society centered around Salomon’s House, a proto-scientific institution devoted to research, innovation, and the betterment of humanity. 
Ideal for fans of dystopian and utopian fiction, philosophical literature, and the roots of scientific thought, The New Atlantis offers a thought-provoking glimpse into the future of society as imagined by one of history’s greatest minds.
