Sinopsis

In the "Thomas More Premium Edition," readers are offered a comprehensive exploration of More's seminal works, including his magnum opus, "Utopia," and other varied writings that encapsulate his humanist philosophy and ethical concerns. The literary style is marked by a rich, articulate prose that seamlessly blends narrative, dialogue, and philosophical discourse, set against the backdrop of 16th-century Europe—a period rife with political upheaval and theological debate. More's incisive critiques of contemporary society and vivid imagination come together to create a thought-provoking commentary on the ideal state and human virtue, showcasing his commitment to Renaissance humanism. Thomas More (1478-1535) was a lawyer, statesman, and philosopher, renowned for his unwavering moral integrity and profound intellect. His tumultuous relationship with King Henry VIII, particularly concerning issues of faith and governance, directly influenced his writings. More's experiences in a rapidly changing socio-political landscape, coupled with his deep Catholic faith, fueled his desire to articulate a vision of justice and community that remains relevant. This edition is highly recommended for readers seeking to understand the complexities of More's thought and its implications for contemporary discussions on ethics, governance, and society.

Traces of Enayat

Iman Mersal

"A subtle and universal exploration of identity." —Aida Alami, the New York Times 
 
 
 
Cairo, 1963: four years before her lone novel is finally published, the writer Enayat al-Zayyat takes her own life at age twenty-seven. For the next three decades, it's as if Enayat never existed at all. 
 
 
 
Years later, when celebrated Egyptian poet Iman Mersal stumbles upon Enayat's long-forgotten Love and Silence in a Cairo book stall, she embarks on a journey of reflection and rediscovery that leads her ever closer to the world and work of Enayat al-Zayyat. 
 
 
 
In this luminous biographical detective story, Mersal retraces Enayat's life and afterlife though interviews with family members and friend, even tracking down the apartments, schools, and sanatoriums where Enayat spent her days. As Mersal maps two simultaneous psychogeographies—from the glamor of golden-age Egyptian cinema to the Cairo of Mersal's own past—a remarkable portrait emerges of two women striving to live on their own terms. With Traces of Enayat, Iman Mersal embraces the reciprocal relationship between a text and its reader, between past and present, between author and subject.
