Francis Bacon is an Elizabethan essayist whose essays are full of practical wisdom. They give a clear understanding of the affairs of the world and an insight regarding the problems faced by men. They also teach morality and its practical use.
The essay "Of Great Place" starts with the idea that men in a great place are servants three times. They tend to be the servants of the sovereign or state, of fame and of business. Bacon says that it is strange that people seek power and lose liberty. He further talks about the four vices of authority and how they can be avoided.
