To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Within a year he wrote the "Opus Majus," its supplement, the "Opus Minus,'' and its intra- duction, the "Opus Tertium." How his works were received we do not know. To-day we see in them much that conforms to Scholastic tradition, much that is false or of no consequence when judged by our own standards, much that was novel to his age, yet not championed by him alone. At the same time, in the pages which he has left there breathes a spirit critical of the life and learning of his times, eager to ...discover the causes of human error and to correct them by detailed investigation.
He was impatient of ignorance and pedantry, and he was indiscriminate in his criticism.
A single reference, and that not altogether above sus- picion, tells us that Bacon was imprisoned in 1278. His theology, or his difficult temper, rather than his scientific teaching, probably should be viewed as the cause of his trouble. By 1292 he was writing and teaching again. He died in Oxford and was buried there in 12^4.
