Overview

De optimo reipublicae statu deque nova insula Utopia libri duo, or ""On the Best State of a Republic and on the New Island Utopia,"" is Sir Thomas More's most famous and influential work. Written in Latin and first published in 1516, it describes a fictional island society and its religious, social and political customs. This edition offers readers access to More's original vision, allowing them to engage directly with the text that coined the term ""utopia"" and sparked centuries of debate about the ideal state. More's exploration of governance, social structures, and individual happiness remains remarkably relevant to contemporary discussions about societal reform and political philosophy.
