Bacon appears as a moralist in his essays‚ for he preaches high moral principles and lays down valuable guidelines for human conduct. Some of his essays show him as a true lover and preacher of high ethical codes and conducts. For instance‚ in “Of Envy”‚ he puts: “A man that hath no virtue in himself‚ ever envieth virtue in others.” Then‚ in his essay “Of Goodness

    I Introduction: pluralism and the Greeks 1. PLURALISM IN HISTORY To chart the course of pluralism is not a straightforward task.

In this way‚ Berlin
