$141.99

  1. Two great figures loom on the threshold of Socialism: Thomas More and Thomas Munzer, two men whose fame rang throughout Europe in their lifetimes: one a statesman and scholar who attained to the highest position in his native land and whose works aroused the admiration of his contemporaries; the other an agitator and organizer, before whose quickly collected multitudes of proletarians and peasants the German princes trembled. Fundamentally different from each other in respect of standpoint, method and temperament, both were alike as regards their object - communism, alike in daring and fidelity to conviction, and alike in the end which overtook them - both died on the scaffold. Contents: Age of Humanism and of the Reformation; Rise of Capitalism; Landed Property; The Church; Humanism; Thomas More’s Biographers; More as Humanist; More and Catholicism; More as Politician; Utopia; More as Economist and Socialist; Mode of Production of the Utopians; Families of the Utopians; Politics, Science and Religion in Utopia; The Aim of Utopia
