In den WarenkorbHard Cover. Zustand: Near Fine. Near Fine. Reissue. Reissue. Includes publisher's slipcase and Sandglass insert. Slipcase edges slightly faded, two small blemishes on one slipcase panel, otherwise an excellent copy. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1963 Hard Cover. [x], 164, [2] pp. Translated into En…glish from the original Latin by Ralph Robynson, with an introduction by H.G. Wells. "Utopia is a fictional work by Thomas More published in 1516. English translations of the title include A Truly Golden Little Book, No Less Beneficial Than Entertaining, of the Best State of a Republic, and of the New Island Utopia (literal) and A Fruitful and Pleasant Work of the Best State of a Public Weal, and of the New Isle Called Utopia (traditional). The book, written in Latin, is a frame narrative primarily depicting a fictional island society and its religious, social and political customs. Despite modern connotations of the word "utopia," it is widely accepted that the society More describes in this work was not actually his own "perfect society." Rather he wished to use the contrast between the imaginary land's unusual political ideas and the chaotic politics of his own day as a platform from which to discuss social issues in Europe.

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. Hardback Book Condition: Very Good considering its age. Good binding and clean, unmarked pages. 164 pages. There is age spotting on outside page edges and wear n tear shown on covers but a very solid book. Illustrations ; 26 cm. The Heritage Press operated from 1937 - 1982 and was create…d by George Macy. Heritage reprinted the lovely volumes of the Limited Editions Club. Heritage was established to give these works a wider audience by making them more affordable and widely available. Every book was selected by Heritage's editors as a classic in its field, chosen from the world's best-known and most enduring literature. The 500th anniversary of the first publication of Thomas More's Utopia invites a reappraisal of its significance, not just as an ironic and playful fiction, but as a serious contribution to social and political thought. More delivers a searing critique of the injustices of his time and imagines a radical alternative based on common ownership and representative government. In this new interpretation, Wilde surveys the context from which Utopia emerged and analyses its key themes politics, economics, social relations, crime and punishment, war and religion. Although the society of the Utopians is created as a remedy to the ailments of the old world, there are restrictions on individual freedom which reflect More's suspicion of human nature's innate fragility. Wilde argues that this should not detract from the power of the book in challenging the root causes of inequality and oppression. The true legacy of Utopia lies in its plea for social justice in the face of a world driven by greed and the lust for power. A compelling case is made for the continued relevance of this masterpiece, a legacy that should not be diminished by attempts to discredit More's character, which are dealt with here in the epilogue. Offering a new perspective on this important historical text, this book is essential reading for students and scholars working in radical politics, the history of social thought and literature, as well as anyone interested in learning more about this fascinating work.

G. Wells. - Utopia - Erstdruck 1516 unter dem Titel: Libellus vere aureus, nec minus salutaris quam festivus, De optimo rei publicae statu deque nova insula Utopia ("Ein wahrhaft goldenes Büchlein, nicht minder heilsam als unterhaltsam, Von der besten Verfassung des Staates und von der neuen Insel Utopia") - ist ein von Thomas Morus (1478-1535) in lateinischer Sprache verfasster philosophischer Dialog, der Anfang des 16. Jahrhunderts zunächst in Belgien erschien. Der Londoner Bürger und Undersheriff, spätere Speaker und Lordkanzler stellt darin die Schilderung einer fernen idealen Gesellschaft vor und gab damit den Anstoß zum Genre der Sozialutopie. Rahmenhandlung ist ein Aufenthalt Morus' in Antwerpen, wo er seinem geschätzten Freund Peter Ägidius und einem Fremden begegnet, der als belesener, weitgereister Portugiese und angeblicher Reisegefährte Vespuccis vorgestellt wird. Morus erinnert sich an ihr Gespräch und gibt Erzählungen und Berichte des Weltreisenden wieder, der eine Zeit lang auf einer Insel namens Utopia bei den dortigen Utopiern gelebt haben will. Die beschriebene Gesellschaft mit demokratischen Grundzügen basiert auf rationalen Entscheidungen, Gleichheitsgrundsätzen, Arbeitsamkeit und dem Streben nach Bildung. In dieser Republik ist aller Besitz gemeinschaftlich, Anwälte sind unbekannt, und unabwendbare Kriege werden bevorzugt mit ausländischen Söldnern geführt. (wiki) // " . It would seem that he began and ended his career in the orthodox religion and a general acquiescence in the ideas and customs of his time, and he played an honourable and acceptable part in that time; but his permanent interest lies not in his general conformity but in his incidental scepticism, in the fact that underlying the observances and recognised rules and limitations that give the texture of his life were the profoundest doubts, and that, stirred and disturbed by Plato, he saw fit to write them down. One may doubt if such scepticism is in itself unusual, whether any large proportion of great statesmen, great ecclesiastics, and administrators have escaped phases of destructive self-criticism, of destructive criticism of the principles upon which their general careers were framed. But few have made so public an admission as Sir Thomas More. A good Catholic undoubtedly he was, and yet we find him capable of conceiving a non-Christian community excelling all Christendom in wisdom and virtue; in practice his sense of conformity and orthodoxy was manifest enough, but in his Utopia he ventures to contemplate, and that not merely wistfully but with some confidence, the possibility of an absolute religious toleration. The Utopia is none the less interesting because it is one of the most profoundly inconsistent of books. Never were the forms of Socialism and Communism animated by so entirely an Individualist soul. The hands are the hands of Plato, the wide-thinking Greek, but the voice is the voice of a humane, public-spirited but limited and very practical English gentleman who takes the inferiority of his inferiors for granted, dislikes friars and tramps and loafers and all undisciplined and unproductive people, and is ruler in his own household.
