Synopsis

Utopia was a satire so dangerous that it had to be published first in Belgium rather than England. There was not even a translation into English for over thirty years. Ever since it has been in print and setting people to think about society and its organization. This edition of Utopia brings More's original Latin text and Burnet's English translation together in one affordable book.

À propos de l'auteur

Thomas More (1478–1535) was an English philosopher, lawyer and political figure. He served as Henry VIII's chancellor and was put to death over the split between the Roman and the English church. Erasmus said, "[More's] soul was more pure than any snow."
