The famous myth of Utopia, written by Thomas More in the early 16th century, which has since captivated and intrigued, tackles the eternal philosophical question of the ideal state. More incorporates into his vision of the ideal society elements from Plato, Aristotle, Stoicism, and Epicureanism, and speaks of the abolition of private property, religious tolerance, state welfare, and care for all citizens, with the aim of attaining happiness through the achievement of social peace and justice.
A text that has influenced the philosophical, political, and literary tradition of the West like few others, a brilliant product of Renaissance humanism.
About the author: Thomas More (1478–1535), a knight in England and a saint of the Catholic Church, was a deeply educated humanist, lawyer, politician, and philosopher, as well as a fervent Catholic on the edge of asceticism. This dual identity, with all its tensions, is reflected in Utopia, a work that many consider a precursor to communism. He served as an advisor at the court of Henry VIII, but passionately opposed both the Reformation and the separation of the Church of England from Rome, resulting in his conviction for treason and execution by beheading.
