More · Utopia (9781316595039)

This is a fully revised edition of one of the most successful volumes in the Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought series. Incorporating extensive updates to the editorial apparatus, including the commentary, introduction, notes and further reading sections, this third edition of More's Utopia has been comprehensively re-worked to take into account recent scholarship published since the second edition in 2002. The vivid and engaging translation of the work itself by Robert M. Adams includes all the ancillary materials by More's fellow humanists that, added to the book at his own request, collectively constitute the first and best interpretive guide to Utopia. Unique series features include a chronology of More's life, footnotes, and marginal notes throughout to provide students with an accurate and accessible introduction to one of the most influential works in the Western philosophical and literary tradition.
