It remains astonishingly radical ... one of Utopia s most striking aspects is its contemporaniety Terry EagletonIn Utopia, Thomas More gives us a traveller s account of a newly-discovered island where the inhabitants enjoy a social order based on natural reason and justice, and human fulfilment is open to all. As the traveller describes the island, a bitter contrast is drawn between this rational society and the practices of Europe. How can the philosopher reform his society? In his discussion, More takes up a question first raised by Plato and which is still a challenge in the contemporary world. In the history of political thought few works have been more influential than Utopia, and few more misunderstood.Translated and introduced by Dominic Baker-Smith

To find citizens ruled by good and wholesome laws, that is an exceeding rare, and hard thing. Thomas More s Utopia presents an account of an idealised fictional society that has fascinated readers since its first publication in Latin in 1516. It is a scathing critique of More s contemporaries and a hopeful portrait of a better world; a ridiculous satire of the rich and powerful, and a personal exploration of what constitutes a good life.This edition is based on the first English translation of Utopia, produced in the mid-sixteenth century, allowing readers to understand how More was read on publication and the effects of the translator s changes upon the book s legacy. The introduction by Joanne Paul provides insights into More s context and intentions, exploring why this work has been so influential in modern utopian literature and in political theory through the ages.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

In Thomas More’s hugely influential Utopia, a traveller recounts his discovery of an island nation in which the inhabitants enjoy unprecedented social cohesion and justice. The book imagines a community in which laws, personal relations and professional ambition are based on reason, in contrast with the tradition-bound superstitions of Europe, which were, in More’s eyes, impediments to equality and peaceful coexistence. One of the indicators of the profound cultural and political influence of More’s masterpiece is today’s common use of the word “Utopia” – a term he invented. This extraordinary treatise on the values of rationality and reason – here presented in a sparkling new translation by Roger Clarke and accompanied by copious notes and additional texts – questions what a philosopher can do to enact change in society, and how idealized visions can inform political practice. A sparkling new translation by Roger Clarke of one of the most influential philosophical works of all time, which renders the original Latin into an English that is clear, readable and true to the spirit of Thomas More’s writing. Accompanied by: Biographical notes on contemporary figures and an index explaining More’s Utopian vocabulary; a map of the island of Utopia; correspondence relevant to the text (as well as letters of endorsement and even celebratory verses), written by numerous prominent sixteenth-century European humanists. These letters – presented chronologically and translated from Latin – work in conjunction with the detailed notes on Thomas More’s life, the genesis of Utopia and information about the verse metres employed to offer a unique and fascinating insight into the composition and publication of Utopia, which no student of the text should be without. Moreover, they offer a glimpse not only into the character of More, Erasmus and other members of their circle, but also into the world in which they inhabited. Our edition, therefore, offers unprecedented background detail for an accessible mass-market edition.

Beautifully written LITERARY REVIEWBorn into the English Wars of the Roses, educated in the European Renaissance, enthralled by the Age of Exploration and ultimately destroyed by Henry VIII, Thomas More is one of the most famous - or notorious - figures in English history.

Toto je teda v slovenčine prvé kompletné vydanie. Rozprávanie o živote na fiktívnom ostrove Utópia sa začína stretnutím troch postáv, medzi ktorými sa rozprúdi rozhovor tvoriaci vlastný obsah diela. Thomas More a Peter Giles počúvajú rozprávanie fiktívnej postavy, „scestovaného“ Rafaela Hythlodaya o vzdialených krajoch. Dielo Utópia pozostáva z dvoch kníh a záveru a autor naznačuje, ako ho treba chápať. Priznáva, že jeho úlohou bolo len podať istý pohľad na svet bez toho, aby sa s ním stotožnil. Zároveň používa iróniu, ktorá mu umožňuje zaujať stanovisko a pritom nezmeniť Rafaelovu výpoveď. Štát Utópia tvorí 54 miest, pričom každému sú pridelené polia, na ktorých sa rozvíja...

From one of the world s leading economists, a grand narrative of the century that made us richer than ever, yet left us unsatisfied.Before 1870, humanity lived in dire poverty, with a slow crawl of invention offset by a growing population. Then came a great shift: invention sprinted forward, doubling our technological capabilities each generation and utterly transforming the economy again and again. Our ancestors would have presumed we would use such powers to build utopia, but it was not so. When 1870-2010 ended, the world instead saw global warming, economic depression, uncertainty, inequality, and broad rejection of the status quo.Slouching Towards Utopia tells the sweeping story of how this unprecedented explosion?of material wealth?occurred,?how it transformed the globe, and?why?it?failed to deliver us to utopia.?Of remarkable breadth and ambition,?it?reveals how the last century was much less?a march of progress?than?a slouch?in the right direction.

Nejnovější román Davida Mitchella přichází jako samostatný, osobitý příběh, zároveň ale i jako další díl nadrománu jejž autor píše po celý dosavadní život. Tématem a stylem se od závratného mnohovýznamového Atlasu mraků nebo od Tisíce podzimů Jacoba de Zoeta liší, je pevně a s příjemnou konkrétností zasazen do šedesátých let - jde o román o dospívání. UTOPIA AVENUE není ani zdaleka jen mistrně odpozorovaným portrétem hudební scény v Soho na přelomu 60. a 70. let. Zajímá ho, odkud se berou autorské nápady a jak potom putují světem - popová hudba mu k tomu nabízí ideální příležitost. Myslím, že většina spisovatelů závidí hudebníkům přímý kontakt s publikem a okamžité ocenění, říká v jednom rozhovoru, musí to být nádherný pocit! Ať vymyslím jakkoli skvělý výjev, ať napíšu jakkoli dokonalý odstavec, nikdy, nikdy, nikdy tuhle drogu neokusím. Když před publikem přečtete něco nového , co se vám opravdu povedlo, je to jen dost slabá náhražka . Kdo v románu UTOPIA AVENUE dospívá, je hudební skupina stejného jména, nejpodivnější britská kapela, o které jste v životě neslyšeli , a román líčí nejen její vzestup, ale i pád. V první části kapela získává úspěch, nadšené fanoušky a pořádný kus proslulosti… jenže nikoli spravedlivý díl štěstí. Mitchell s dokonalým vcítěním odkrývá pod tlustou vrstvou slávy i její skrytou tvář: z cesty svedené ambice, poraněné duše, lidské ztráty i působení náhod. Muzikanti cítí čím dál větší napětí mezi požadavky publika, odměnami z provozování umění a na druhé straně změtí protichůdných sil závazků, obav ze selhání, kruté nostalgie a na dřeň jdoucího smutku. Láska přichází a promarněna mizí, smrt přichází znenadání. Puzení k hudbě, k jejímu tvoření, je ale nevysvětlitelně stálé, nedá se mu odolat.

From the author of the international bestseller Debt: The First 5,000 Years comes a revelatory account of the way bureaucracy rules our lives Where does the desire for endless rules, regulations, and bureaucracy come from? How did we come to spend so much of our time filling out forms? And is it really a cipher for state violence? To answer these questions, the anthropologist David Graeber--one of our most important and provocative thinkers--traces the peculiar and unexpected ways we relate to bureaucracy today, and reveals how it shapes our lives in ways we may not even notice...though he also suggests that there may be something perversely appealing--even romantic--about bureaucracy. Leaping from the ascendance of right-wing economics to the hidden meanings behind Sherlock Holmes and Batman, The Utopia of Rules is at once a powerful work of social theory in the tradition of Foucault and Marx, and an entertaining reckoning with popular culture that calls to mind Slavoj Zizek at his most accessible. An essential book for our times, The Utopia of Rules is sure to start a million conversations about the institutions that rule over us--and the better, freer world we should, perhaps, begin to imagine for ourselves.

A practical and uplifting vision of better ways to live together, own property, have families and raise children, from the author of Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism. Kristen Ghodsee is back with another splendid insight: utopia can and ought to be an everyday thing. In every home. Invigorating writing for a cheerless era YANIS VAROUFAKIS History is made by the dreamers ... A must-read THOMAS PIKETTY---The traditional nuclear family home is a problem: it places unfair and unnecessary burdens on women (and men too), it entrenches inequalities, it entraps us financially and it hinders certain kinds of child development. Also, it doesn t seem to make us very happy.And yet throughout history and around the world today, forward-thinking communities have pioneered alternative ways of living - from the all-female beguinages of medieval Belgium to the matriarchal ecovillages of contemporary Colombia; from the ancient Greek commune founded by Pythagoras, where men and women lived as equals and shared property, to present-day Connecticut, where new laws make it easier for extra alloparents to help raise children not their own. Some of these experiments burned brightly and briefly; others are living proof of what is possible.Everyday Utopia upends our assumptions and raises our sights by gathering these and many more inspiring examples together, arguing that many of the most important and effective ways of changing our lives and the world are to be found in the home. The result is a radically hopeful and practical vision of more connected - and contented - ways of living. Liberating and inspirational, a sweeping feminist history of society at its most creative ADA CALHOUN, author of Why We Can t Sleep

Until the Age of Enlightenment, utopia was a popular literary genre, but without concrete political effects. However, in the decades leading up to 1789, its status gradually changed from an entertaining thought experiment to a socialist project. Imagining the ideal city took on the task of articulating revolutionary transformation of society towards equality and social justice.In Utopia, Stéphanie Roza explores the nascent ideal of a community of property and labour, not yet called communism, and the thinkers who engaged with it in the lead-up to the French Revolution. These philosophers included Étienne-Gabriel Morelly, a fierce critic of private property and the mysterious author of the Code de la Nature; the Abbé de Mably, a radical republican and interlocutor of Rousseau; and Gracchus Babeuf, who, from the 1780s onwards, defended the natural right to subsistence and dreamed of a more fraternal world.Together, they laid the foundations for modern socialist movements. In the crucible of the French Revolution, ‘real equality’ became the goal of a handful of conspirators gathered around Babeuf, who had meanwhile become the ‘tribune of the people’. The Conspiracy of Equals was considered by Marx to be ‘the first active communist party’: the hopes and questions that ran through the group prefigured those of the militants of later periods, including today.

Most of us worry that we re not very good negotiators - too quick to concede or too abrupt in our approach. But negotiation is present in almost every social interaction - we cannot avoid it. Neale and Lys present a practical new approach that will help you master this crucial everyday skill in every situation. Instead of focusing on reaching agreement at any cost, Neale and Lys reveal how to overcome our psychological biases and assess the hidden value in any negotiation. They explain how to know what a good deal is; when to negotiate and when to walk away; why keeping a straight face can prevent you from getting the best deal; when to make the first offer and when to wait; and why meeting in the middle can result in both sides being worse off. Drawing on three decades of ground-breaking research into behavioural economics, psychology and strategic thinking, Getting (More of) What You Want will revolutionise the way you approach negotiation. Whether you re looking for a better deal on your new car, asking for a pay rise, selling your company or just deciding who does the washing up, this book will help you become a more successful, more efficient negotiator - and get more of exactly what you want.

Autor- futurista, Shakespeare sci-fi žánru, vizionársky predvídal celý rad vynálezov, napr. nástup lietadiel a tankov, cestovanie do vesmíru, jadrové zbrane, satelitné televízie, náznak webovej siete , laser, stroj času, neviditeľnosť, biologické inžinierstvo – vivisekciu, mimozemskú inváziu – teda motívy, ktoré sa neskôr stali súčasťou žánru sci-fi knihách a filmoch, ale mnohé aj súčasťou reality. Predpovedal sexuálnu revolúciu, svetovú vojnu aj nebezpečenstvo rasových teórií. Možno ho zaradiť medzi najväčších sci-fi vizionárov a utopistov. Projektoval utópie aj dystópie, ukázal tak nádeje, ako aj sklamania, ktoré priniesli a môžu priniesť technológie. Poučí sa ľudstvo z Welsových varovaní?

He has a big future shaping the future Observer A more politically radical Malcolm Gladwell New York Times The Dutch wunderkind of new ideas GuardianIn Utopia for Realists, Rutger Bregman shows that we can construct a society with visionary ideas that are, in fact, wholly implementable. Every milestone of civilisation â “ from the end of slavery to the beginning of democracy â “ was once considered a utopian fantasy. New utopian ideas such as universal basic income and a fifteen-hour work week can become reality in our lifetime.From a Canadian city that once completely eradicated poverty, to Richard Nixon s near implementation of a basic income for millions of Americans, Bregman takes us on a journey through history, beyond the traditional left-right divides, as he introduces ideas whose time has come.

That book, which despite its academic style became a New York Times bestseller, focused on what would happen if AI goes wrong.But what if AI goes right? Suppose we succeed in developing superintelligence safely and that we make good use of the almost magical powers this unlocks. We would then achieve full unemployment. More than that, we would transition into a “post-instrumental condition, in which human effort is not needed for any practical purpose. This would be a condition of material abundance. Human nature itself would become fully malleable.In such a solved world, what would be the point of human existence? What could give meaning to our lives? Which old values will we have to sacrifice, and which new values will we be able to realize to wonderful degrees?Deep Utopia—a work that is again years ahead of its time—takes the readers on a journey into some of the most profound questions that arise as we dissolve the limits of our current mode of being. It is a lush, playful, difficult, and human text that interleaves fiction stories and philosophical lectures that show us a glimpse of a different kind of existence–one that might be ours in the not-so-distant future.

Anthropologist Kristen Ghodsee looks at pioneering experiments in communal living to present a rousing argument for rethinking what we mean by home.‘A must-read’ THOMAS PIKETTY‘Just wonderful’ ANGELA SAINIThroughout history and around the world today, forward-thinking communities have pioneered alternative ways of living together, sharing property and raising children. In Everyday Utopia, anthropologist Kristen Ghodsee explores what we can learn from these experiments – from the ancient Greek commune founded by Pythagoras to the trail-blazing feminists of the French Revolution, from the cohousing movement in contemporary Denmark to the flourishing ecovillages of Colombia and Portugal. She shows why utopian thinking is essential to making a fairer world and that many of the best ways of getting there begin at home.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “You Owe You is full of insight and guidance for those seeking their inner selves.”—MICHAEL B. JORDAN No matter your story or your struggle, Eric Thomas—celebrated motivational guru, educator, and problem-solver to many of the top athletes and business leaders—will “help you work harder, discover your real motivation, and crack the code of enduring success” (Ed Mylett, #1 bestselling author of The Power of One More)If you feel like success is for others, that only certain people get to have their dreams fulfilled, Eric Thomas’s You Owe You is your wake-up call. His urgent message to stop waiting for inspiration to strike and take control of your life is one he wishes someone had given him when he was a teenager—lost, homeless, failing in school, and dealing with the challenges of being a young Black man in America. Once he was able to break free from thinking of himself as a victim and truly understand his strengths, he switched the script. And now, with this book, Thomas reveals how you, too, can rewrite your life s script. With support, he recognized that his unique gift is being able to capture the attention of all kinds of people in all kinds of settings—boardrooms, locker rooms, churches, classrooms, even the streets—thanks to his wealth of experiences and command of language. Today, Thomas considers himself blessed to speak to an audience that is as large as it is diverse, from the rich and famous to kids struggling in school to young men in prison hoping for a new start. Thomas’s secrets of success have already helped hundreds of thousands on their journey, but this is his first guide to show you how to start today, right now. These critical first steps include deeply understanding yourself and the world around you, finding your why, accepting that you may have to give up something good for something great, and constantly stretching toward your potential. No matter where you are on your journey toward greatness, you owe it to yourself to become fully, authentically you. And Eric Thomas’s You Owe You can help get you there.
