The Scientific Revolution

In his essay “Of Study” Francis Bacon regards studies as they should be: for pleasure, for self- improvement, for business. He considers the evils of excess study: laziness, affectation, and prosperity. Bacon divides books into three categories: those to read in part, those to read casually and those to be read with care. Studies should include reading; whish gives depth, speaking, which adds readiness of thought, and writing which trains in preciseness. The author ascribes certain virtues to individual field of study: wisdom to history, wit to poetry, subtlety to mathematics, and depth to natural philosophy. This essay has intellectual appeal indeed.

Meanwhile, scientists were demystifying the universe. Nobody knows for sure who invented the telescope, but Galileo Galley had built one of his own. With it he was able to confirm the heretical speculations of Copernicus, Keller that the Sun, not the earth, was the centre of the Universe. The specific origins of the microscope are equally obscure. In the 17th century, Robert Hook used it to describe accurately the anatomy of a flea and the design of a feather; Antony de Leeuwenhoek discovered a world of wriggling organisms in a drop of water. The invention of logarithms and calculus led to more accurate clocks and optical instruments. By 1700 Galileo, Rene Descartes, Sir Isaac Newton and other scientists had clarified the principles which machines work. Mechanical invention led inevitably to another step in the West’s commercial and political hegemony over the world: the Industrial Revolution.

 

a. What categories did Bacon dived books into?

b. Who were the most famous scientists of that time?

c. When did the Industrial Revolution begin?

New York

In 1605 the first Europeans came to Manhattan Island from Holland. In 1626 Peter Minuit, governor of the Dutch settlement in North America known as New Amsterdam bought the island from the Native Americans for a few glass necklaces, valued about 24 dollars today. In 1613 the Dutch built only four small houses on Manhattan as a fur station. It was not until 1623, ten years more, that they started a real settlement, town of Amsterdam in honor of the capital of their country in Europe. In 1644, when the English acquired the island, the village New Amsterdam was renamed New York. Today Manhattan is the heart of America’s business and culture. It is the most important banking century in the world. Fewer than two million of the city’s eight million people live on the island. For the visitors New York means skyscrapers, tremendous traffic, dazzling neon advertisements. Manhattan is full of parallel rows of buildings; those running from north to south are called avenues while those running from east to west are called streets. The avenues and streets have only numbers instead of names. Wall Street from its beginning became the market place of money. It was here that a walled stockade was erected to repulse the Indians, hence its name. As the city expanded the stockade was dismantled as no further use, but the market place for purchase of bonds and securities remained. Like every big city, New York has its own traffic system. Traffic jams can be terrible, and it is usually quicker go by subway. New York is an international city, the place to try something new. It may be an experience you will never forget.

a. What is Manhattan today?

b. What does New York mean for visitors? What can you say about New York traffic system?
