Utopia
(eAudiobook)
Description
In this groundbreaking work of speculative fiction, Thomas More transports readers to the island of Utopia, a society built on rationality, equality, and communal living. Through the eyes of Raphael Hythloday, a traveler who recounts his adventures, More presents a stark contrast to the corrupt, class-stratified world of 16th-century Europe. The Utopians, living in perfect harmony with nature and one another, have abolished poverty, crime, and inequality, while embracing enlightened governance, free education, and religious tolerance. But beneath the idyllic veneer of Utopia lies a deeper philosophical inquiry: what does the perfect society look like, and is it achievable in our own world? More's thought-provoking critique of politics, social structures, and human nature raises timeless questions about justice, individual freedom, and the balance between idealism and practicality.
