REALISM AND PLEASURE IN UTOPIA OF THOMAS MORE
Keywords:
Thomas More, Utopia, Realism, PleasureAbstract
The aim of this work will be to reflect on the construction of the link between reality and fiction, between what exists and what should exist, present in Utopia (1516) by Tomás Moro. There we observe a permanent dialectical relationship between the realistic frame of the text and the denunciation of the evils that afflict Moro's time society. Especially, we will analyze the first part of the text and the characterization of authentic pleasures, their real possibility and their social distribution. This will lead us to see how the denunciation of the "false" contemporary pleasures and the exaltation for the concretion in reality of the "true" pleasures favored in Utopia are found on the same level.
