Sir Francis Bacon’s ‘The New Atlantis’ is an Early Modern Utopian novel that explores an idealised view of what human progress can achieve. The novel centres around the Utopian Island of ‘Bensalem’ and its inhabitants, who embody Bacon’s dreams for humanity through their kind-hearted, enlightened, and communal spirit. Throughout this work, Bacon demonstrates the importance of religious freedom in Christian society, as well as the integration of science and ‘The Baconian Method’ into education. ‘Salomon’s House’ represents the apex of Bacon’s vision, a modern research university that focuses on the cutting edge of scientific discovery. ‘The New Atlantis’ was published posthumously in 1628, never completed. Despite this, it still offers a rich vision of what ‘The Father of Empiricism’ believed humanity could become. ‘The New Atlantis’ remains one of the most important works of Utopic Fiction, alongside Sir Thomas More’s ‘Utopia’. Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626) was an English author, philosopher, and statesman. A prolific author, his work has spanned science, religion and literary fiction. His work has had a profound impact on science, and he is often regarded as ‘The Father of Empiricism’. His most important books, ‘Novum Organum’ and ‘New Atlantis’ have a significant legacy. ‘Novum Organum’ was heavily influential to 17th century scholars, particularly Sir Thomas Browne who utilised ‘The Baconian Method’ for much of his encyclopaedia ‘Pseudodoxia Epidemica’. ‘Salomon’s House’ from ‘The New Atlantis’ was frequently used as inspiration for the establishment of ‘The Royal Society’, the United Kingdom’s national academy for sciences.

"The New Atlantis" is a utopian work of fiction by Sir Francis Bacon. The story is told by an unnamed narrator who recounts his voyage to the island of Bensalem, a land where scientific knowledge and religious piety coexist in harmony. Bensalem is a society that is centered around scientific research and discovery. The people of Bensalem have a deep reverence for knowledge and devote their lives to the pursuit of scientific inquiry. They have developed advanced technologies, including flying machines and submarines, that are used to explore the mysteries of the natural world. The people of Bensalem also have a strong religious faith, and their scientific pursuits are guided by their belief in a divine creator. They believe that scientific knowledge can bring them closer to God and that their discoveries are a gift from God. The narrator is impressed by the people of Bensalem and their dedication to scientific research and religious piety. He returns to Europe with a new perspective on the relationship between science and religion and a renewed sense of hope for the future. Overall, "The New Atlantis" is a visionary work that imagines a world where science and religion can coexist in harmony, and where scientific inquiry can be pursued for the betterment of humanity.

In 1958 construction began on Akademgorodok, a scientific utopian community modeled after Francis Bacon's vision of a "New Atlantis." The city, carved out of a Siberian forest 2,500 miles east of Moscow, was formed by Soviet scientists with Khrushchev's full support. They believed that their rational science, liberated from ideological and economic constraints, would help their country surpass the West in all fields. In a lively history of this city, a symbol of de-Stalinization, Paul Josephson offers the most complete analysis available of the reasons behind the successes and failures of Soviet science--from advances in nuclear physics to politically induced setbacks in research on recombinant DNA. Josephson presents case studies of high energy physics, genetics, computer science, environmentalism, and social sciences. He reveals that persistent ideological interference by the Communist Party, financial uncertainties, and pressures to do big science endemic in the USSR contributed to the failure of Akademgorodok to live up to its promise. Still, a kind of openness reigned that presaged the glasnost of Gorbachev's administration decades later. The openness was rooted in the geographical and psychological distance from Moscow and in the informal culture of exchange intended to foster the creative impulse. Akademgorodok is still an important research center, having exposed physics, biology, sociology, economics, and computer science to new investigations, distinct in pace and scope from those performed elsewhere in the Soviet scientific establishment.

The New Atlantis has fired the imaginations of its readers since its original appearance in 1627. Often regarded as the apotheosis of Bacon's ideas through its depiction of an advanced 'scientific' society, it is also read as a seminal work of science fiction. Standing at the threshold of early modern culture, this key text incorporates the practical and visionary, utility and utopia. This volume of eight new essays by leading scholars provides a stimulating dialogue between a range of critical perspectives. Encompassing the fields of cultural history, history of science, literature and politics, the collection explores The New Atlantis' complex location within Bacon's oeuvre and its negotiations with cultural debates of the past and present. Contributors consider the book's use of rhetoric, its narrative contexts, its political and ethical implications, its relation to the natural knowledge of the period, and the function of miracles in New Atlantan society. The politics of colonialism and Jewish toleration, its complex representation of gender, and the role and politics of censorship are also explored. This volume will be the ideal companion to Bacon's The New Atlantis and for all students of literature, politics, history, cultural history and history of science
