Opera hactenus inedita, Fasciculus 01
No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
The work 'Opera hactenus inedita' by Roger Bacon is a multi-volume series of critical editions of his Latin texts, edited by Robert Steele and others, beginning in the early 20th century. Fasciculus 01 (1909) contains specific Latin treatises (such as the 'Metaphysica'). These volumes are scholarly Latin editions intended for academic study; they are not translations, nor have they been translated into English as a collection or as individual treatises within this specific series. While some of Bacon's works have been translated individually elsewhere, the 'Opera hactenus inedita' series itself remains a Latin-language scholarly resource.

Roger Bacon demands a revolt against intellectual stagnation. He forces readers to choose between the comfortable pursuit of trivialities and the difficult path toward divine truth and the perfection of the soul.
