"The most interesting thing about it is the evidence it gives of Morris's continuing fascination with the idea of the quest, the journey through outlandish territory, impelled onwards by some supernatural force" (Fiona MacCarthy, WILLIAM MORRIS, 1994, p.564). Morris's translation of THE ODYSSEY was done in his unique quasi-Medieval style, which makes for an enjoyable read for those who appreciate and enjoy his colorful use of language.

Aggiungi al carrelloThe Kelmscott Press limited edition of Sir Thomas More's "quintessential humanist dialogue" (ODNB), first published in Louvain in 1516. Quarto, original publisher's limp vellum with gilt titles to the spine, original silk ties, text printed in red and black in Chaucer and Troy types, 2 full-page woodcut borders and initials des…igned by William Morris. One of 300 copies printed by William Morris and edited by Frederick S. Ellis. William Morris believed that Utopia belonged in every Socialist's library. 40 copies of this edition were "ordered in advance by an Eton master, with the intention of distributing them as prizes among the boys of the college, but when the work appeared with a compromisingly Socialistic introduction by Morris, the order, from motives of prudence, had to be cancelled." Cockerell 16; Peterson A16; Sparling 16. In fine condition. Housed in a custom slipcase. An exceptional example. Thomas Moreâs Utopia (1516) drew on a rich tapestry of intellectual influences, including Platoâs Republic, St. Augustineâs De civitate Dei, Amerigo Vespucciâs accounts of the New World, and Erasmusâs Institutio Principis Christiani. These sources converged in Moreâs portrayal of an idealized society that critiqued the political and social structures of early 16th-century Europe. Utopia was "a tract for the times, to rub in the lesson of Erasmus; it inveighs against the new statemanship of all-powerful autocracy and the new economics of large enclosures and the destruction of the old common-field agriculture, just as it pleads for religious tolerance and universal education" (PMM). William Morris's Kelmscott Press edition of 1893 represented a significant moment in the bookâs reception history, aligning Moreâs humanist vision with the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement. Morris, a socialist and a key figure in the revival of traditional craftsmanship, saw in Utopia a kindred critique of industrial capitalism and social inequality. The Kelmscott edition, with its richly ornamented typography and hand-crafted aesthetic, emphasized the bookâs ethical and artistic value, treating it not merely as a literary classic but as a political and philosophical statement. By publishing Utopia in a form that rejected mass production and celebrated medieval design principles, Morris reinforced the textâs challenge to modern economic structuresâ"much like More had criticized the enclosure movement and the erosion of common-field agriculture in the 16th century.
