Utopia Illustrated

Thomas More

History / General

The word utopia was coined from Ancient Greek by Sir Thomas More in 1516. "Utopia" comes from Greek: οὐ ("not") and τόπος ("place") which translates as "no-place" and literally means any non-existent society, when 'described in considerable detail'. However, in standard usage, the word's meaning has shifted and now usually describes a non-existent society that is intended to be viewed as considerably better than contemporary society.[4]

In his original work, More carefully pointed out the similarity of utopia to eutopia, which is from Greek: εὖ ("good" or "well") and τόπος ("place"), hence eutopia means "good place", which ostensibly would be the more appropriate term for the concept the word "utopia" has in modern English. The pronunciations of eutopia and utopia in English are identical, which may have given rise to the change in meaning
