Utopia is a satirical work of fiction and political philosophy by Thomas More, originally published in Latin in 1516. The book describes a fictional island society with religious, social, and political customs different from those of medieval Europe. Through the narration of an explorer named Raphael Hythloday, More explores philosophical and political ideals in a community where authorities are elected by popular vote, offering a critique of contemporary societies.
Sir Thomas More, venerated in the Catholic Church as a martyr and saint, was an English lawyer, judge, social philosopher, author, statesman, theologian and Renaissance humanist. He also served Henry VIII as Lord Chancellor from October 1529 to May 1532. He wrote Utopia, published in 1516, which describes the political system of an imaginary island state.
