What did Sir Thomas More write?

• A. The Prince
• B. Utopia
• C. Decameron
• D. The Canterbury Tales

Answer: (B)

Understanding which author wrote which work helps you connect ideas to the people who shaped the period. Sir Thomas More is best known for writing Utopia, published in 1516 as a Latin dialogue describing an imagined island with an orderly, communal society that critiques European politics, property, and religion of his time. More uses this fictional setting to explore ideas about justice, governance, and social reform, and the term utopia itself has come to describe a perfect society. The other works come from different authors: The Prince is by Niccolò Machiavelli, Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio, and The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer. So Utopia is the work associated with More.
