«Utopía» is the political philosophy essay by Tomás Moro, published by Taurus in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
In Utopía, Tomás Moro imagines a remote island where society has achieved a harmonious and just organization. But the title, which literally means «the non-place», reveals the work's critical intent: a satire against the corruption, abuses of power and human flaws of the Europe of his time.
Volume 18 of the Taurus Great Ideas collection, which brings together works by thinkers who have changed the world. Third edition.
For young and adult readers wishing to start with the classics of philosophy and for those interested in political thought and the humanities.
Sir Thomas More, venerated in the Catholic Church as a martyr and saint, was an English lawyer, judge, social philosopher, author, statesman, theologian and Renaissance humanist. He also served Henry VIII as Lord Chancellor from October 1529 to May 1532. He wrote Utopia, published in 1516, which describes the political system of an imaginary island state.
