The City of The Sun
“The City of the Sun” is a philosophical work by the Italian Dominican philosopher Tommaso Campanella. It is an important early utopian work.The book is presented as a dialogue between “a Grandmaster of the Knights Hospitaller and a Genoese Sea-Captain”. Inspired by Plato's Republic and the description of Atlantis in Timaeus, it describes a theocratic society where goods, women and children are held in common.One of the most significant aspects of this community is the distribution of work. Once again Campanella engages in an explicit polemic with Aristotle, who had excluded artisans, peasants and those involved in manual labor from the category of full citizenship and from the highest levels of virtue.
