dc.description.abstractThis study aims to discuss the potential that the epistemology of Fran-cis Bacon has concerning our epistemic actions during the Covid-19 pandemic. In the study, it will be asserted that the thoughts-warnings-disclosures of Bacon on the subject of epistemology will contribute positively to our epistemic actions during the pandemic that we have been experiencing over the last two years. The study concludes that the epistemology of Bacon and especially his doctrine of idols has three positive interrelated contributions which are valid during the pan-demic. Firstly, it is understood that such an epistemology will give epistemic power to the individuals concerning to be able to see and understand the scien-tific realities that are different from the existing and established scientific con-sensus. Secondly, it is concluded that such epistemic power enables to have ep-istemic liberalization which makes it possible to pay attention to the different scientific knowledge during the pandemic. In this regard, it is concluded that we need to be liberated epistemically from the illusions that prevent us from making true judgments during the pandemic. Finally, we conclude that such a liberaliza-tion obtained by Bacon's epistemology helps us to have epistemic healing in that it shows us which scientific knowledge to value and explains the distinctive kinds of illusion forms in our epistemic actions.en_US
