Utopia With the 'Dialogue of Comfort'. [With an Introd. by Judge John O'Hagan; Translated by Ralph Robinson

"Utopia," originally published in 1516, is Sir Thomas More's best-known and most influential work. This edition pairs "Utopia" with the "Dialogue of Comfort," offering readers a comprehensive view of More's philosophical and political thought. Presented with an introduction by Judge John O'Hagan and Ralph Robinson's classic translation, this volume makes More's timeless insights accessible to a modern audience.

"Utopia" describes an ideal society on a fictional island, critiquing the political and social norms of 16th-century Europe. Through detailed descriptions of Utopian life, More explores themes of justice, equality, and communal living. The "Dialogue of Comfort" further reveals More's intellectual resilience and spiritual depth during a period of personal and political turmoil.

This edition is invaluable for students of political science, literature, and history, providing both a foundational text in utopian studies and a window into the mind of one of the Renaissance's most significant figures.
