Utopia

Utopia (Libellus vere aureus, nec minus salutaris quam festivus, de optimo rei publicae statu deque nova insula Utopia) is a work of fiction and political philosophy by Thomas More (1478-1535) published in 1516 in Latin. The book is a frame narrative primarily depicting a fictional island society and its religious, social and political customs. Utopia was written (in Latin, for educated people) at a time when Europeans were just beginnings to sail across oceans to previously unknown lands. The book claimed to be a description of such a new land (though the fact that its title is Greek for "no place" gave away that it was fiction - at least to people who new Greek!). For much of the time, More writes as though the way Utopians manage their lives is far superior to the European way. Utopians had no private property and leds lives which were closely controlled by the state. They also practiced religious toleration.
