This paper explores Mores" political thought with reference to his main work, Utopia. In particular, I examine it from a historical perspective focusing on the emergence of the modern age. I instigate More"s thought, which contributed to the expansion and development of ideas beyond his times.
First, More displays religious tolerance, which was exceptional in the renaissance and the modern Ages as wee. Personally, More was a very faithful and devoted Catholic. However, he understood Christian belief in different ways from the orthodox. He argues that those who follow the teachings of Jesus in their life and practice are true Catholics, which reminds us of Erasmus"s Christian Humanism. Second, in the debate about the life of the philosopher or the wise, More shows the tension between otium, which is individual freedom from public duty, and negotium, which is participation in real politics. More asks Hytholodaeus, the main character in Utopia, to join political life, but Hythlodaeus says that politics is not a worthwhile and fair job. Third, More points out the harmful effects of the private property system. More implies that for the establishment of justice in society, the abolition of the capitalist system is required.
