7Title:  Utopia, limited: romanticism and adjustment   
 Creator:  Nersessian, Anahid, 1982- 
 Notes:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 209-258) and index. What is utopia if not a perfect world, impossible to achieve? Anahid Nersessian reveals a basic misunderstanding lurking behind that ideal. In Utopia, Limited she enlists William Blake, William Wordsworth, John Keats, and others to redefine utopianism as a positive investment in limitations. Linking the ecological imperative to live within our means to the aesthetic philosophy of the Romantic period, Nersessian's theory of utopia promises not an unconditionally perfect world but a better world where we get less than we hoped, but more than we had. For the Romantic writers, the project of utopia and the project of art were identical. Blake believed that without limits, a work of art would be no more than a set of squiggles on a page, or a string of nonsensical letters and sounds. And without boundaries, utopia is merely an extension of the world as we know it, but blighted by a hunger for having it all. Nersessian proposes that we think about utopia as the Romantics thought about aesthetics--as a way to bind and thereby emancipate human political potential within a finite space. Grounded in an intellectual tradition that begins with Immanuel Kant and includes Theodor Adorno and Northrop Frye, Utopia, Limited lays out a program of "adjustment" that applies the lessons of art to the rigors of life on an imperiled planet. It is a sincere response to environmental devastation, offering us a road map through a restricted future.--Publisher website.

9Title:  Divulging Utopia: radical humanism in sixteenth-century England   
 Creator:  Baker, David Weil, 1963- | Horace Howard Furness Memorial Fund | Horace Howard Furness Memorial Library (University of Pennsylvania) 
 Notes:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 175-215) and index. Baker (English, Rutgers U.) examines the 16th-century humanist movement in England, tracing the reception of Sir Thomas More's Utopia (1516) in relation to it. He argues that humanists of the English Renaissance were themselves reading More's Utopia, Erasmus's Praise of Folly, and other works of Continental humanism in much more politically radical ways than scholars have generally recognized.

17Title:  Thomas More's Utopia in early modern Europe: paratexts and contexts   
 Creator:  Cave, Terence 
 Notes:  "For the project, Dislocations: practices of cultural transfer in the early modern period, at the University of Oslo." Originally published 2008. Includes bibliographical references (pages 281-294) and index. "Thomas More's Utopia in Early Modern Europe provides the first complete account of all the editions of Utopia, whether vernacular or Latin, printed before 1650. The reception of the idea of Utopia in early modern Europe has been studied extensively before: what has been lacking is a composite picture of how Utopia moved by means of translation from culture to culture and of the ways in which particular versions offered themselves to their readers ... This book will be of interest to specialists in early modern cultural history and history of the book, to graduate students working in these fields, and to anyone for whom the extraordinary success of More's Utopia as a book published on the European market remains a perennial fascination."--Back cover.

19Title:  Utopia: Latin text and English translation   
 Alt. Title:  Utopia. English & Latin   
 Creator:  More, ThomasSaint, 1478-1535 | Logan, George M., 1941- | Adams, Robert M. (Robert Martin), 1915-1996 | Miller, Clarence H. | Horace Howard Furness Memorial Library (University of Pennsylvania) 
 Notes:  Latin text based on the Froben edition of March 1518, but spelling and punctuation have been regularized in accordance with modern practices. Includes bibliographical references (pages 277-284) and index. First published in Latin in 1516, Thomas More's Utopia is one of the most influential books in the Western philosophical and literary tradition and one of the supreme achievements of Renaissance humanism. This is the first edition of Utopia since 1965 (the Yale edition) to combine More's Latin text with an English translation, and also the first edition to provide a Latin text that is at once accurate and readable. The text is based on the early editions (with the Froben edition of March 1518 as copy-text), but spelling and punctuation have been regularised in accordance with modern practices. The translation is a revised version of the acclaimed Adams translation, which also appears in Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought. The edition, which incorporates the results of recent Utopian scholarship, includes an introduction, textual apparatus, a full commentary and a guide to the voluminous scholarly and critical literature on Utopia.
