Hardback. Condizione: Good. Peter Ackroyd's The Life of Thomas More is a masterful reconstruction of the life and imagination of one of the most remarkable figures of history. Thomas More (1478-1535) was a renowned statesman; the author of a political fantasy that gave a name to a literary genre and a worldview (Utopia); and, most famously, a Catholic martyr and saint. Born into the professional classes, Thomas More applied his formidable intellect and well-placed connections to become the most powerful man in England, second only to the king. As much a work of history as a biography, The Life of Thomas More gives an unmatched portrait of the everyday, religious, and intellectual life of the early sixteenth century. In Ackroyd's hands, this renowned man for all seasons emerges in the fullness of his complex humanity; we see the unexpected side of his character--such as his preference for bawdy humor--as well as his indisputable moral courage.…

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Encuadernación: Rústica Colección: Básica de Bolsillo Utopía ha sido considerada como una de las obras más sobresalientes del utopismo que gozó de gran difusión y reconocimiento en su época. En ella, More ambiciona un modelo de sociedad fundamentado en la justicia social y solidaridad entre los hombres que, como una gran familia, gestionan y disponen de manera equitativa los recursos que producen, puesto que la apropiación del poder, de la riqueza y la propiedad privada, al redistribuir los bienes, divide los intereses de los hombres y a los hombres mismos. More, como Marx, supera el concepto mecánico de justicia y lo traslada a un ámbito profundo y humano, donde la comunión con el gobierno y la participación en la propiedad y disfrute de los bienes erigen una comunidad justa. La fascinación que aún ejerce la utopía moreana estriba en que el proyecto social soñado por él es el que todos los hombres sueñan. Si su ideal fuera imposible, habría que decir adiós a la justicia. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
