More's Impact

Although More's life came to an end, his footprint in a continuing developing society still remains. Juggling so many careers at once, he was able to alter the world around him through his works. People to this day use him as an example, whether it be in writing or in the political world. His most famous book, Utopia, was translated into multiple languages after his death. Thomas More is painted as the father of the Utopian and Anti-Utopia genre, spawning a new approach to depicting portrayals of society. With this came a standard of representing some sort of lesson through writing.

Aside from writing, More was a Christian Humanist. He spread the idea that each and every human has the potential to be great if they're aligned with God. In addition to his mission of popularizing christian humanism, he rallied up other politicians against the Pope, created a new format of expression and communication, and sparked attention to immoral issues that are yet to be solved in modern ages.
