Abstract

Thomas More is one of the most famous English scholars in humanities. He was a harbinger of humanism, which started in Italy in the fourteenth century A.D. After More was convinced of learning the life of monastics, he started practicing law and participated in public life. Moreover, he was at the service of Henry VII, who made the English Renaissance enter a new stage through paying attention to man being the basis of any science and study. His status was like a scientific academia. Since 1509, More was received a great care by Henry VIII, and he nominated him a deputy in diplomatic negotiations with a number of other European states. He was also nominated in a diplomatic mission to Holland and Belgium to settle some suspended issued between the two countries. However, his scientific and political life ended when Henry VIII executed him in 1535.
