This volume unites three foundational texts of political and religious thought, each commanding its own ideological territory. Machiavelli’s The Prince presents a stark manual on power, statecraft, and pragmatic rule, rejecting idealism in favour of calculated authority. More’s Utopia constructs a visionary republic governed by reason, communal ownership, and moral clarity, implicitly critiquing the corruption of Tudor England. Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses ignites the Protestant Reformation with a direct challenge to ecclesiastical abuses, asserting scriptural primacy and individual conscience over institutional control. Together, these works illustrate the seismic shifts of Renaissance and Reformation Europe, offering collectors a compact yet potent archive of transformative doctrine.
