«Utopía» is the satirical work of fiction and political philosophy by Tomás Moro, published by Planeta in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
Written in Latin in 1516, the work presents Raphael Hythloday, a sailor who describes an imaginary island with common property, religious tolerance, and an elected government. Tomás Moro contrasts this rational order with the European monarchies of his time and reflects with irony on justice, power, and social organization.
This Spanish edition, published in 1996, includes an introduction, translation, and notes by Joaquim Mallafrè.
Reference work for those interested in political philosophy and Renaissance humanist classics, in a Spanish edition with annotated text.
