作者简介
Sir Thomas More (1478-1535) was an English lawyer, philosopher, and statesman whose life and works have left an indelible mark on Western thought. Born in London, More was a man of profound intellect and moral conviction, navigating the turbulent waters of the Tudor court with a steadfast commitment to his principles. He served as a close advisor to King Henry VIII, eventually rising to the position of Lord Chancellor. However, his refusal to endorse the King's separation from the Catholic Church and the establishment of the Church of England led to his arrest and eventual execution for treason.More's literary contributions extend beyond his political career, reflecting his deep engagement with humanist ideals. He was a contemporary and friend of Erasmus, with whom he shared a vision of a society guided by reason and justice.
