Фре́нсіс Бе́кон — англійський політик, філософ і есеїст.
Фре́нсіс Бе́кон був одним із творців емпіризму — філософського напряму, який твердить, що головне — власний досвід.
Він став лордом канцлером у 1618 році
Того ж року був оштрафований за хабарництво (bribery) на 40000 фунтів та провів 4 дні в лондонській в'язниці.
В своїх філософських роботах він розглядав науковий підхід в освіті, перевизначив завдання природничої науки, бачачи в ній засіб для експериментального відкриття і метод посилення влади людини над природою.
Бекон розробив новий метод наукового пізнання, що ґрунтується на раціональному аналізі дослідних даних.
Визнаючи об'єктивність матеріального світу, вірячи у силу розуму і науки, Бекон все ж робив поступки теології і додержувався вчення про двоїсту істину.
