Algumas reflexões sobre a função do Livro I em Utopia, de Sir Thomas More
Description
Book I of Utopia is often discarded as the unimportant section of Thomas More´s masterpiece where the author discusses 16th century England´s major problems and criticises the European king´s endless ambitions. The author of this paper seeks to emphasise the importance of Book I in the global and final message of More´s Utopia, analysing the way it establishes the link between reality and unreality, the knowledge it provides us of Raphael Hythloday´s char-acter and the way it introduces the criticai element in the narrative from the very beginning of the book.
