Five Hundred Years of Thomas More's Utopia and Utopianism

Lyman Tower Sargent

Abstract

ABSTRACT This article reflects on the author's engagement with More's Utopia and the utopian tradition from when he begins to read utopias as an undergraduate and the way he responds to certain texts and then how he has responded to some of the same texts later in life. The author also argues for the continued importance of utopianism, utopian literature, and More's Utopia in particular.
