Within literature, history, politics, philosophy and theology, the
interpretation of utopian ideals has evolved constantly.
Juxtaposing historical views on utopian diagnoses, prescriptions
and on the character and value of utopian thought with more modern
interpretations, this volume explores how our ideal utopia has
transformed over time. Challenging long-held interpretations, the
contributors turn a fresh eye to canonical texts, and open them up
to a twenty-first century audience. From Moore's Utopia to Le
Guin's The Dispossessed, Utopian Moments puts forward a lively and
accessible debate on the nature and significance of utopian thought
and tradition. Each essay focuses on a key passage from the
selected work using it to encourage both the specialist and the
reader new to the field to read afresh. Written by an international
team of leading scholars, the essays range from the sixteenth
century to the present day and are designed to be both stimulating
and accessible.
