This book analyzes Thomas More's thoughts on the statecraft needed to enhance liberty and peace in a culture favoring war.
1. Young Thomas More: why do peace and prosperity require arts of humanitas?; 2. Fashioning peace and prosperity: what are the necessary arts?; 3. Cicero's and More's 'first citizens': how do they avoid faction and civil war?; 4. What were More's earliest views of humanitas, libertas, and respublica, 1500¿6?; 5. More's Life of Pico della Mirandola: a model of libertas and humanitas? (c.1504¿7); 6. More's 1509 coronation ode: artful education of eighteen-year-old Henry VIII?; 7. Political poems of 1509¿16: proposing self-government by 'sound deliberation'; 8. Richard III, c.1513: diagnosing the causes of England's plague of war; 9. Utopia, 1516: a model respublica of peace, liberty, and self-government?; 10. The un-utopian Thomas More Family Portrait: an icon of Morean humanitas?; 11. The arts of liberty: can peace and prosperity be fashioned by 'sound deliberation'?
