Description

Written in 1534 by the Renaissance humanist during the imprisonment that preceded his execution, this work combines political thought and spiritual reflection. Situating his dialogue in Hungary during the Ottoman conquests, Sir Thomas More offers a penetrating exploration of the fleeting nature of pleasure, the essence of worldly power, and Christ's redemptive power.

Author Biography:

Author, philosopher, and scholar Sir Thomas More (1478-1535) served as Henry VIII's Lord Chancellor. More's enmity toward the Protestant Reformation and refusal to acknowledge his king as supreme head of the Church of England led to accusations of treason, resulting in a trial and conviction. While imprisoned in the Tower of London and awaiting execution, More wrote A Dialogue of Comfort Against Tribulation.
