by Peter Sipes (Editor), Thomas More (Author)
Utopia was a satire so dangerous that it had to be published first in Belgium rather than England. There was not even a translation into English for over thirty years. Ever since it has been in print and setting people to think about society and its organization. This edition of Utopia brings More's original Latin text and Burnet's English translation together in one affordable book.
