Thomas More: A Lonely Voice Against the Power of the State by Peter Berglar This book explores the conscience and motivation of one of the most admired persons in history: St. Thomas More. Most people know that Thomas More wrote a book called Utopia about a perfect society and got his head chopped off by King Henry VIII. But there was much more to the man. More not only occupied England’s most powerful position under the king as Lord Chancellor, but was also a devoted family man, a Renaissance figure of renown throughout Europe, and the author of works of apologetics as well as poetry, fiction and plays. Even while awaiting execution in the Tower of London, his multi-volume “Tower writings” poured out, evidence of his deep faith and life of prayer. In Gulliver’s Travels, Protestant author Jonathan Swift named More among the six greatest defenders of liberty of all time, “to which all the ages of the world cannot add a seventh.” Erasmus praised him as one “born, created for friendship.” After his death, a popular tune sang the praises of his “gentle heart”: When More some time had Chancellor been, No more suits did remain; The like will never more be seen Till More be there again. Peter Berglar, who has written ten biographies including one of St. Peter, and one of the earliest studies of Opus Dei and its founder, St. Josemaría Escrivá, deals in this new translation of the original German with the ultimate question: for what is life not worth living? When must it be purchased at a price that could devalue and perhaps destroy it? “It has been repeated in every generation. There will never be a lack of idols and dictators who demand this sacrifice.”, Paperback, Etiqueta: Scepter Publishers, Scepter Publishers, Grupo de producto: Book, Publicado: 2009-10, Estudio: Scepter Publishers.

Thomas More comes alive once again in this newly-translated work by Peter Berglar, author of one of the first major biographies of the founder of Opus Dei, St. Josemaria Escriva. In a detailed portrayal of one of history's most admired figures, Berglar shows More as a family man, as the country's most powerful political leader, and as an author of apologetic and spiritual works in addition to his work, Utopia, which remains in print nearly 500 years after it first appeared.Named Patron of Statesmen by Pope John Paul II, More continues to exert a powerful influence on modernity, precisely because the talents and abilities that marked him out for such success were without hesitation laid aside because of the demands of faith and loyalty to the Church. More remains an enigmatic figure because of his own detachment to his exercise of power, and his willingness, even joy, at submitting to its treachery in the case of his own life.Author Peter Berglar explores these themes in a way that has never before been presented in a biography of Thomas More. Scepter is proud to bring this work to the attention of English readers for the first time.
