About this book
A traveler describes a distant island commonwealth called Utopia, where property is held in common, gold is despised, work is shared, and religious tolerance prevails, an imagined ideal society that throws the injustices of More's own England into sharp relief. Witty, ambiguous, and endlessly debated, the book coined the very word 'utopia' (meaning both 'good place' and 'no place') and launched a whole genre of imagined perfect societies. Is it a serious blueprint, a satire, or a thought experiment? Readers have argued for five centuries. Brilliant and provocative, Utopia remains a foundational work of political philosophy and a mirror in which every age examines its own dreams and failings.
