Description

Thomas More's Utopia is one of the supreme achievements of Renaissance humanism. This is the first edition since 1965 to combine More's Latin text with an English translation, and the first to provide an accurate Latin text. Spelling and punctuation have been regularized, and the translation is a revised version of the acclaimed Adams translation, also published in Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought. The edition includes an introduction, textual apparatus, a full commentary and a guide to the critical literature on Utopia.

Schoeck, The Sixteenth century Journal
