“For if you suffer your people to be ill-educated and their manners to be corrupted from their infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded from this, but that you first make thieves and then punish them?” — Thomas More A radical imagining of a perfect society, Utopia lays out a world where reason, equality, and justice reign. Written in the 16th century by Saint Thomas More, this profound and provocative work challenges readers to confront the failures of their own world and envision something better. In a fictional island society governed by fairness and common good, More explores revolutionary ideas on law, education, religion, and economic equality. This modern translation revives More’s timeless masterpiece for today’s audience—one still in search of answers to inequality, conflict, and corruption.
