The edition includes the illustrative material that accompanied early editions of Utopia, full chronologies of the authors, notes, and glossary. - ;Thomas More: Utopia/ Francis Bacon: New Atlantis/Henry Neville: The Isle of Pines With the publication of Utopia (1516), Thomas More introduced into the English language not only a new word, but a new way of thinking about the gulf between what ought to be and what is. His Utopia is at once a scathing analysis of the shortcomings of his own society, a realistic suggestion for an alternative mode of social organization, and a satire on unrealistic idealism. Enormously influential, it remains a challenging as well as a playful text. This edition reprints Ralph Robinsons 1556 translation from Mores original Latin together with letters and illustrations that accompanied early editions of Utopia. Utopia was only one of many early modern treatments of other worlds. This edition also includes two other, hitherto less accessible, utopian narratives. New Atlantis (1627) offers a fictional illustration of Francis Bacons visionary ideal of the role that science should play in the modern society. Henry Nevilles The Isle of Pines (1668), a precursor of Defoes Robinson Crusoe, engages with some of the sexual, racial, and colonialist anxieties of the end of the early modern period. Together these texts illustrate the diversity of the early modern utopian imagination, as well as the different purposes to which it could be put. -</p>...1384665Three Early Modern Utopias: Thomas More: Utopia / Francis Bacon: New Atlantis / Henry Neville: The Isle of Pines6262https://www.gandhi.com.mx/three-early-modern-utopias-thomas-more-utopia-francis-bacon-new-atlantis-henry-neville-the-isle-of-pines-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1094524/bdd7ed6e-c1af-455c-83c4-cd0cde185240.jpg?v=638471734844500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook19999780191606052_W3siaWQiOiJhZmYyMTQxYi1iMjZlLTRkYjMtYTE1MC1mNmE2NGRjMmQ0MGYiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjYwLCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo2MCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDItMDRUMTE6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780191606052_<p>A unique edition of three early modern utopian texts, using a contemporary translation of Mores Utopia and examining the Renaissance world view as shown by these writers.
