It was a super happy place where he always had family and friends over. More was portrayed as the embodiment of Christian Humanism. He was overall looked at as a good person who spent his life's work on something he was passionate about. 

Someone that More looked up to was a man named Giovanni Pico della Mirandola. Like Pico, More prized the life of the mind. He carried on a productive correspondence with other thinkers, performed numerous tasks for friends like Desiderus Erasmus, who spread the idea that the key to improving society is by spreading the Bible and also defended Humanist literatures from suppressing criticism (Thomas More) and (Howard). ]]> 2022-10-13 17:47:35 UTC https://padlet.com/canzaldo26_1_1/kzocfiilco6ks69/wish/2339207031 canzaldo26_1_1 https://padlet.com/canzaldo26_1_1/kzocfiilco6ks69/wish/2340808987 More was a significant figure during the Renaissance who accomplished many great achievements.

Thomas More was also born with three siblings but was the only one who survived. More's interests sent him to Oxford University where he spent two years mastering Latin and undergoing a thorough drilling in formal logic. He grew up studying math and history and learned the flute and viola. After some time, his love for humanistic learning died out (Some of the Most Memorable Geographic Places, with Distinctive Landscapes, Languages, and People, Never Existed).

Utopia came from the Greek word meaning that "More is coming." In Utopia he describes a person who does not follow one of the main world religions. His story was told by a mysterious traveler named Raphael Hythloday, an old, sunburned man from Portugal who was a fictional character in Thomas More's Utopia. This book takes place in a communist city-state where everything is set out to be perfect and is governed by what makes sense at the time. This story was made to take place in a utopian society but much like many other stories, it was closer to a dystopia (Some of the Most Memorable Geographic Places, with Distinctive Landscapes, Languages, and People, Never Existed) and (Howard). ]]> 2022-10-18 02:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/canzaldo26_1_1/kzocfiilco6ks69/wish/2344333248 canzaldo26_1_1 https://padlet.com/canzaldo26_1_1/kzocfiilco6ks69/wish/2345291395 2022-10-18 14:56:24 UTC https://padlet.com/canzaldo26_1_1/kzocfiilco6ks69/wish/2345291395
