Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Leather. 8vo. Published by Robert Roberts, Boston, Lincolnshire. 1878. 472 pgs. #289 of a limited edition of 450 copies. Frontispiece portrait of More after Holbein. Bound by Bayntun in full gilt decorated calf leather with raised bands present to the spine. Book is free of ownership marks. Text is… clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. No wear present to the boards. In his most famous and controversial book, Utopia, Thomas More imagines a perfect island nation where thousands live in peace and harmony, men and women are both educated, and all property is communal. Through dialogue and correspondence between the protagonist Raphael Hythloday and his friends and contemporaries, More explores the theories behind war, political disagreements, social quarrels, and wealth distribution and imagines the day-to-day lives of those citizens enjoying freedom from fear, oppression, violence, and suffering. Originally written in Latin, this vision of an ideal world is also a scathing satire of Europe in the sixteenth century and has been hugely influential since publication, shaping utopian fiction even today. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
