“A name I hold especially sacred”: Friendship in Thomas More’s writings, 1501–1534
After first considering Thomas More’s reputation for friendship, this article will trace references to friendship across More’s writings from his earliest letters and poems until the year of his imprisonment, 1534. In sum, the article suggests that a clearer understanding of More’s own “virtue politics,” to invoke James Hankins’s magisterial study of Renaissance humanism in Italy, must account better for the centrality of friendship in More’s thi…

The Responsibilities of Conscience in Healthcare Decisions: Moving Towards a Collaborative Framework
Claims of conscience are a substantial area of concern in relation to healthcare decisions but are often only considered in a limited context. Broadening our understanding of claims of conscience, however, might lead to claims that we are moving back towards a doctor-centred understanding of medical care. This article argues that we can allow claims of conscience without unduly penalising patients by focusing on the responsibilities that ought to…

Friendship and Tyranny in the Writings of Sir Thomas More
The essay analyzes the themes of friendship and tyranny in Thomas More’s writings. The essay begins with a consideration of three major classical sources on friendship and tyranny, and then examines More’s writings in light of these sources. The essay proposes that More’s writings manifest both his understanding of tyranny and his understanding of the author as prospective friend of the reader, the two potentially united in a common project to br…

The Politics of Imitation: Exploring Connections between Thomas More and William Shakespeare
This essay explores points of contact between Thomas More and William Shakespeare, with the purpose of renewing scholarly discussion of the connection between “the two greatest minds of the Tudor age”. The essay offers fresh consideration of older claims about the connection and suggests some new ways to build upon these claims – really offering the beginning points for a longer and much needed study of these two great authors and the intriguing …
Sudan: In a Procrustean Bed with Crisis
Civil war in Sudan ‐ first between the North and the South, then in Darfur ‐ extends over half a century, interrupted only by a spell of uneasy peace between 1972 and 1983. Over time, a number of analytical templates have been propounded to account for the quasi-permanent crisis. The causes for conflict in Sudan have thus been pegged to the legacy of colonialism, ethno-religious divide, Islamist terrorism, a resource war, state failure, regional …
