Synopsis:
The first comprehensive one-volume collection of St. Thomas More’s writing
“[A] tremendous scholarly undertaking. . . . Accessible and transparent to both scholars and the general audience.”―Renaissance and Reformation
In this book, Gerard B. Wegemer and Stephen W. Smith assemble, for the first time in a single volume, the most important English and Latin works of Thomas More (1478–1535). This collection reveals the breadth of More’s writing―key works on theology, political philosophy, and law, as well as his poetry and prose―and includes a rich selection of illustrations and artwork. The book provides the most complete picture of More’s work available, serving as a major resource for early modern scholars, teachers, students, and the general reader.
About the Author: Gerard B. Wegemer is professor of English at the University of Dallas. Stephen W. Smith is dean of humanities and the Temple Family Chair of English at Hillsdale College. Wegemer and Smith cofounded the Center for Thomas More Studies in 2000.
