| Résumé : | Bacon and Hartlib were leaders of an empirically based movement that contributed to the transformation of reform strategies in Ireland. While continuing to rely on changes to land use their claims to scientific objectivity helped alter the reformers goal from civilizing Ireland to improving it by relying on the new learning of the Hartlib Circle. The support of Oliver Cromwell provided unprecedented opportunities to apply theories of political economy on the blank slate of Ireland’s landscape. |
