Small losses to the original spine labels some light wear and marking to the covers else very good. Upcott p.281. Includes the errata page with a list of plates on the verso at the rear of volume II.

175853321758 Thomas More UTOPIA Socialism Politics Dystopian Marxism Warner Memoir<br />"how can anyone be silly enough to think himself better than other people because his clothes are made of finer woolen thread than theirs. After all those fine clothes were once worn by a sheep and they never turned it into anything better than a sheep." ― Thomas More Utopia <br />Thomas More was one of the most important Catholic philosophers of the late 15th-century. He is remembered for his work 'Utopia' a famous book depicting a fictional island society with its own social religious and political customs. 'Utopia' and More's other works were highly influential to Anabaptists communism and social Marxism. Many aspects of 'Utopia' describe life in a monastery yet still More seems to be criticizing European society – which he considered to have many problems. More a devout Catholic writes of controversial topics which those on the island of Utopia practiced such as divorce euthanasia married priests and female priests. These practices were widely opposed within the Catholic faith but More cites them as commonplace in his writing.<br />'Utopia' is even polarizing in terms of modern politics. It seems to have been influential to Anabaptists communism and social Marxism. Though 'the answer implied by "Utopia" was that political realities must be changed in order to free men." "More was claiming that community pressure could be made to correspond to and to endorse conscience and the way to achieve this was through institutional and legal regulation supervision and control…the environment of the monastery." Davis 57-58.<br />In the 18th-century Church of England clergyman Ferdinando Warner published a memoir of the life of Thomas More in which he supplemented the memoir with 'Utopia'.<br />Item number: #5332Price: $795<br />WARNER Ferdinando<br />Memoirs of the life of Sir Thomas More lord high chancellor of England in the reign of Henry VIII.
