Nathaniel Bacon (12 December 1593 – 1660) was an English Puritan lawyer, writer and politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1645 and 1660. He was Judge of the High Court of Admiralty 1653 to 1654. LifeBacon was the son of Sir Edward Bacon of Shrubland, Barham, son of Queen Elizabeth's Lord Keeper of the Great Seal, Sir Nicholas Bacon, by his first wife, Jane Ferneley (d.1552).[1] He was educated at Christ's College, Cambridge. In 1617 he was called to the bar.[2] Bacon was a Parliamentarian, active in support of the New Model Army from 1644,[3] Bacon became Member of Parliament for Cambridge University in 1645, as a recruiter to the Long Parliament until he was excluded after Pride's Purge.[1] Bacon was elected MP for Ipswich for the First Protectorate Parliament in 1654, along with his brother Francis Bacon and the two represented Ipswich together until his death. He also served as an Admiralty Judge and Master of Requests (1657).[1] WorksBacon's Historicall Discourse has been described as the first historical work on Norman England to argue closely from sources,[4] and as "the classical statement of the thesis of Anglo-Saxon liberties".[5] He "presented the ... Saxons as a free people governed by laws made by themselves".[6] Glenn Burgess describes it as "a work of considerable scholarship as well as a piece of political propaganda".[7] It argued continuity of the kingship of William the Conqueror with that of previous kings.[8] It was generally aristocratic and republican in tone, strongly anti-clerical, favouring government by an elected council.[9] The remark Man knows the beginning of sin, but who bounds the issues thereof? cited by John Bunyan in Grace Abounding,[10] as on Francesco Spiera, is misattributed, and is really Bacon's, from his work on Speira.[11][12] Publications

His brother was Francis Bacon, the Ipswich MP.[1] References
