Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influencesbiographical, historical, and literaryto enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. 0in 0in 0pt">one of the most influential books in the Western philosophical and literary tradition, Sir Thomas More ’s Utopia appeared in 1516. The formidable Henry VIII had recently assumed the throne in England, and conflicting ideas about religion were fueling the Reformation throughout Europe. A scathing satire, Utopia was hugely successful and vaulted More to the forefront of the growing humanist movement. The story of Utopia is told by a mysterious sailor named Raphael Hythloday, who travels to the New World with the Italian explorer Vespucci and remains at a fort built at the farthest point reached. From there, he discovers a strange island kingdom named Utopia, a pagan and communist city-state in which language, social customs, dress, architecture, and education are identical throughout the country’s fifty-four cities. The Utopians have eliminated wealth, the nobility, and currency. Labor and goods are distributed equally and property is held in common. And there are no monasteries, alehouses, or academies to tempt a person to withdraw from society. Given More’s satiric leanings and eventual execution, is Utopia simply an attack on Europe’s wickedness? or is it a philosophical tract extolling the ideal way to live? Ultimately, Utopia navigates a course between the desire to create perfection and the pragmatic understanding that perfection, given the fallibility of mankind, is impossible. Wayne A. Rebhorn is Celanese Centennial Professor of English at the University of Texas at Austin. He has written extensively on Renaissance literature in English, Italian, French, Spanish, and Latin, on authors from Boccaccio through More and Shakespeare down to Milton.
莫尔的两难 莫尔在介绍乌托邦的社会制度之前,并不是按照一般学术著作开篇谋局,对乌托邦作一总揽,让读者以俯瞰的方式观其大概,进而抽丝剥茧,逐条剖析其内部机理,而是从乌托邦的地理特性入手,着重强调乌托邦暗礁密布、航道莫测、城防坚固,乌托邦国民握据天险屏障,军事上...
评分有一部电视剧名叫《爱在哈佛》(2004),在哈佛法学院的课上,法学教授问一名学生:What novel has deeply impressed your mind?那名学生愣了一下回答说Utopia by Thomas More。教授扬了扬眉头说道:It is a book which every judicial person must read,what part of the bo...
评分接触阿姨学以后,我慢慢有了种感觉,那就是资本主义尽管是从封建主义孕育出来的法权体系,但是资本主义并不是封建主义的高级版本,反倒更像封建主义与绝对主义乃至共产主义之间的历史中间物,它是不稳定的量子状态,有点像薛定鄂的猫,终将朝某一个极端演化,而不是始终自成一...
评分严肃作品不一定都是难读难懂的,学术经典里面也有让普通人读着轻松的,托马斯·莫尔的《乌托邦》(戴镏龄译,商务印书馆1982年第2版)就是这样一部作品。 莫尔的写作手法很有意思。他利用一个“凭空捏造”出来的人物拉斐尔·希斯拉德来表达自己的观点,乌托邦的情况就是由拉菲...
评分读过乌托邦才发现,马克思老先生对于共产主义的设想,至少在某种程度上是在抄袭乌托邦,甚至某些观点而言,马氏依然无法脱离莫尔的理论,比如物质的极大满足,劳动是人们的第一需要。 等等。 乌托邦是虚拟出来的世界,但不代表它没有一定的可行性。它的出发点是,当今的世界...
