Utopia
Thomas More 1516 CE
Utopia is Thomas More's satirical Renaissance dialogue, first published in 1516 in Latin, that depicts an imaginary island society organized around communal property, religious tolerance, and pragmatic social institutions. The book critiques contemporary European politics, social inequality, and legal systems, and has profoundly influenced political philosophy and the literary genre of utopian (and dystopian) fiction.
