Abstract	Bacon, the Elizabethan essayist, sets himself apart from his contemporaries owing to his peculiar traits, including his worldly wisdom and his utilitarian attitude towards life. He calls his essays as “Council, civil and moral.” Terseness of expression and epigrammatic brevity is the part and parcel of his style. Bacon’s genius lies in his “encyclopaedic range of subjects.” All his essays have variety of moods. Some of his essays deal with man in his relation to society such as “Of Great Place”, “Of Friendship”, “Of Parents and Children”, “Of Suitors” and “Of Seditions and Troubles”. Some deal with man in his relations to himself such as “Of Studies”, “Of Ambition” and “Of Revenge”. And some others deal with man in his relation to his Maker, such as “Of Death”, “Of Unity in Religion”, “Of Goodness and Goodness in Nature”.
Keywords	Utilitarian, brevity, worldly wisdom, contemporaries, encyclopedia.
