In the prince of folly,Desiderius Erasmus examined his contemporary world of the Medieval ages and put forth in satire,using a narrator and main character personified as folly,its deep rooted ignorance and stubborness for all to see,to reveal what the world lacked.Thomas Mores utopia ,with similar intentions,practically illustrates a more direct solution to the times with his depictions of the manners and ways of distant people of a place known as utopia.
