‘In the midst of this unstable background, Elizabeth I came to the throne in 1558. By the time Charles I succeeded to the Throne in 1625, English language had been transformed, and English commerce and trade led the world. America was being colonised, and foundations had been laid for a revolution in political thought and science.
But this remarkable English Renaissance was not a spontaneous happening-not much in history ever is. It was the deliberate design of a small group, led by Sir Francis Bacon. Francis called his plan “The Great Instauration”, or the “Worldwide reformation of the Arts and Sciences.”’ (p. 55).
