Sir Thomas More (1478-1535) was an English lawyer, social philosopher, author, statesman, and Renaissance humanist. Utopia is a work of fiction and socio-political satire. He wrote Utopia, published in 1516, about an imaginary island society and its religious, social, and political customs. While imprisoned in the Tower of London in 1534, he wrote A Dialogue of Comfort Against Tribulation. It is a fictional dialogue focusing on the comfort of God in distress, the benefits of suffering, atonement for evil acts, faintheartedness and the temptation to suicide.

When 18-year-old Kip Lancaster receives an anonymous text instructing him to bring his track cleats to an unknown address on Blitzhart Road, he has no idea that this is the summons to an adventure that will prey on his fears, hone his skills, and, above all, cause him to recognize and value genuine relationships.

Thomas More's "Utopia" is a complex, innovative and insightful contribution to the development of political thought. The culmination of this work was a description of a country whose society lives according to the laws of nature, but is close to the ideas of the religion of Christianity - they have everything in common and gold is not valuable to them. Based on the ideas of Plato, St. Augustine and Aristotle, the Utopia novel has borne fruit, namely the dawn of new utopian and anti-utopian literature that includes the writings of such writers as Francis Bacon, Herbert Wells, Aldous Huxley and George Ourell.

The book comprises two parts: Dialogue of Council and Discourse on Utopia. It is a work of fiction and satire by Thomas More (1478-1535), depicting a fictional island society and its religious, social, and political customs.

Thomas More (1478-1535) opposed King Henry VIII's separation from the Catholic Church, and refused to acknowledge Henry as Supreme Head of the Church of England. While awaiting execution for refusing to betray his faith, More wrote this fictional dialogue set in 16th century Hungary. The dialogue takes place between a young man, Vincent, and his wise old uncle, Anthony. Vincent fears a Turkish invasion which could force him to either betray his faith or die a martyr.

Thomas More alcanzó la inmortalidad por su rígida postura religiosa contraria a la del rey Enrique VIII. Esto también le costaría la vida. Ejemplo de conducta y convicción, Moro debe su prestigio a una obra fundamental: Utopía (1516), un relato satírico sobre la vida en una isla de ficción llamada así. En esta isla, los intereses de los individuos se encuentran subordinados a los de la sociedad como conjunto, todos sus habitantes deben desempeñar un trabajo, se practica la enseñanza universal y la tolerancia religiosa, y la tierra pertenece a todos.

Hannah More was British playwright, abolitionist, and philanthropist. This allegory is a witty portrayal of peoples’ daily concerns; the story calls on them to keep their mind on their heavenly destination and to prepare for it. “… one would have thought they would have been chiefly employed in packing up, and preparing, and getting everything in order. But this was so far from being the case, that it was almost the only thing which they did not think about.”
