Über den Autor

Sir Thomas More (1478-1535) was an eminent English lawyer, social philosopher, author, statesman, and noted Renaissance humanist. He served as an important councillor to Henry VIII and was later honored as a saint and martyr by the Catholic Church after his beheading for refusing to acknowledge the king as the Supreme Head of the Church of England. More’s literary contributions are profound, with his most famous work being ‚Utopia‘ (1516), a socio-political satire that coined the term ‚utopian‘ and propelled discussions on the ideal society. Similarly, ‚Dialogue of Comfort Against Tribulation‘ (1534), written during More’s imprisonment in the Tower of London, offers a poignant exploration of endurance in the face of suffering, with a focus on spiritual consolation. More’s literary style often fused a sharp wit with a humanistic concern for justice, education, and the moral health of society. His writings have left an indelible mark on literature and political thought, capturing the complexity of his insights into human nature and governance. Despite the controversy surrounding his political and religious choices, Thomas More remains a pivotal figure in literary history, whose works continue to be studied for their rich ethical and philosophical implications.
