Gadamer I 354
Method/Bacon/Gadamer: [The Interepretation] (...) is intended to allow, through methodically organized experiments, the gradual ascent to the true, lasting generalities, the simple forms of nature. This true method is characterized by the fact that the mind is not left to itself there(1); it must not fly as it wishes. Rather, the requirement is to ascend gradatim (step by step) from the particular to the general in order to acquire an orderly experience that avoids all haste(2). >Induction/Bacon.
Gadamer I 355
GadamerVsBacon: His goal of defeating nature by obeying, the new attitude of attacking and conquering nature, everything that made him a champion of modern science, is only the one programmatic side of his work, to which he hardly contributed anything lasting.

Kuhn I 41
Baconian Method/Kuhn: is to make measurements without ties to any theory - KuhnVsBacon: that it is practically never realized.
