(1478-1535) British writer. Sir Thomas More was the author of “Utopia,” and he has been celebrated as a martyr of the Roman Catholic Church. As Chancellor to Henry VIII he refused to sanction Henry’s divorce of Queen Catherine. More was imprisoned, tried and executed. This drama was made into a play and an excellent (though not historically accurate) film – A Man of for All Seasons.”
