This volume includes the full text of Mores 1516 classic, Utopia, together with a wide range of background contextual materials. For this edition the G.C. Richards translation has been substantially revised and modernized by William P. Weaver of Baylor University.As with other volumes in this series, the text and annotations in this edition are taken from The Broadview Anthology of British Literature, acclaimed as the new standard in the field. Appendices include illustrations from early editions; relevant passages from the Bible and from Plato; excerpts from Mores 1534 Dialogue of Comfort against Tribulation that have been cited for their alleged relevance to the debate over whether or not More himself espoused the communist principles of the Utopia he imagined.
