Ben Jonson "I have and do reverence him for the greatness that was only proper to himself, in that he seemed to me ever, by his works, one of the greatest men, and most worthy of admiration that has been in many Ages."Ben Jonson in tribute to Francis Bacon In Ben Jonson's Discoveries (1641) he gives Bacon the highest praise, and describes his writings in these peculiar words: "He who hath filled up all numbers and performed that in our tongue which may be compared or preferred to insolent Greece and haughty Rome ....so that he may be named as the mark and acme of our language." Bacon is here compared to Homer and Virgil in the same words that Jonson used about the author of the Shakespeare Folio in 1623: "Leave thee alone for the comparison Of all that insolent Greece and haughty Rome Sent forth.... " "He who hath filled up all numbers," acknowledges Bacon's versification during Elizabethan days such as sonnet, madrigal, blank verse and even cypher numbers. Ben Jonson, the editor of the Shake-speare Folio, is telling posterity in this eulogy from his significantly entitled "Discoveries" that : Francis Bacon is Shakespeare. (Excerpted from The Knights of the Helmet by Martin Pares) "There was one famous contemporary of Lord Bacon, a great and original writer himself, a man of moods and satire, seldom given to lavish praise of others, who acknowledged Bacon to be his "chief." This man was Benjamin Jonson. If ever there was a man of genius, full of suprises, it was Ben. He combined the strangest mixture of coarseness and delicacy. As a private soldier in the Low Countries he challenged and killed with his own hands a champion from the enemy camp; later he killed a fellow actor in a duel. He drank heavily at times, and it is not impossible that Will Shakspers' decease after that famous "merry meeting" was the end of a similar feud. And yet Ben Jonson could write, not only in Latin. not only ribald plays, but some of the loveliest lyrics such as the extravagant, "Drink to me only with thine eyes."

Back to Modern History Sourcebook Modern History Sourcebook: Ben Jonson On Lord Francis Bacon, 1625 Introductory Note Dominus Verulamius [Footnote 1: Francis Bacon, Lord Verulam.] One, though he be excellent and the chief, is not to be imitated alone; for never no imitator ever grew up to his author; likeness is always on this side truth. Yet there happened in my time one noble speaker who was full of gravity in his speaking; his language, where he could spare or pass by a jest, was nobly censorious. No man ever spake more neatly, more presly, more weightily, or suffered less emptiness, less idleness, in what he uttered. No member of his speech but consisted of his own graces. His hearers could not cough, or look aside from him, without loss. He commanded where he spoke, and had his judges angry and pleased at his devotion. No man had their affections more in his power. The fear of every man that heard him was lest he should make an end. [Footnote 1: Severe.] [Footnote 2: Concisely.] [Footnote 3: Choice, disposal.]

Renaissance Quarterly , Summer 2000 v53 i2 p500 Microhistory and Cultural Geography: Ben Jonson's "To Sir Robert Wroth" and the Absorption of Local Community in the Commonwealth [*]. ELSKY, MARTIN. Full Text: Recent interest in the relation between Renaissance cartography and literature provides an opportunity to ask how a literary work projects the geographic place from which it is written. [1] Geographic position as the starting point of literary interpretation is especially interesting during times of geographical change when borders shift across people, when people shift across borders, when borders move centripetally to create a large political formation out of smaller ones, when borders move centrifugally to create smaller formations out of a larger one. Shifts such as these result in changes in the location of personal, social, and political identity as well as changes in the location of cultural authority, especially among rival claimants for the authenticity of centralizing and decentralizing tendencies in politico-geographical formations. Though there may still be disagreement, historians have come to emphasize the symbiotic rather than adversarial relationship between country and court, and this realignment has opened the way for literary historians to see connections rather than contrasts between court and country in late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century literature about the country. Leah Marcus has done the most to reconfigure our understanding of the country-court axis in English literature when she argued that the literary representation of the country promoted James's policy of "repastoralization," a policy aimed at keeping the gentry in the country so they could provide hospitality instead of seeking city pleasures. [3] Kevin Sharpe and Peter Lake state the larger case as follows:
