Sir Thomas More is a biography written by William Holden Hutton in 1895. The book follows the life of Sir Thomas More, a prominent English statesman and humanist during the Renaissance period. More is known for his philosophical writings, including Utopia, and for his role as Lord Chancellor under King Henry VIII. Hutton's biography explores More's early life, education, and career as a lawyer before delving into his political and religious beliefs. More was a devout Catholic and opposed the Protestant Reformation, which put him at odds with King Henry VIII's decision to break away from the Catholic Church. The book also covers More's personal life, including his marriage and family, as well as his eventual downfall and execution for refusing to acknowledge Henry VIII as the head of the Church of England. Hutton's biography provides a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of Sir Thomas More, shedding light on his political and religious beliefs, his contributions to literature and philosophy, and his role in English history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
