A Thomas More Source Book Paperback / softback
Edited by Gerard B. Wegemer, Stephen W. Smith
Paperback / softback
Description
This source book brings together texts by and about Thomas More - poet, scholar, statesman, family man, educational reformer, philospher, historian and saint.
In addition to serving as an introduction to More's life and writings for the general reader, this collection is a companion to the study of 16th-century history, literature, philosophy or politics.
The writings focus upon More's views of education, political theory, church-state relations, love and friendship, practical politics and the vexing issue of conscience.
They shed light on the distinctive Christian humanism that More expresses and embodied.
Also included in the book are three famous 16th-century accounts of More's life by Erasmus, Roper and a team of London playwrights including William Shakespeare.
