This revised edition of the Cambridge Text Utopia (originally published in 1989) was undertaken primarily to incorporate the extensive changes to the Robert M. Adams translation of Utopia that were made for the 1995 Latin-English edition that I prepared with the late Professor Adams and, after failing health forced him to withdraw from the project, with Clarence H. Miller. Especially since the latter edition is now standard for most purposes, it seemed desirable to incorporate the reworked translation into the Cambridge Text edition.
I have also revised the introductory materials in the light of scholarship published since the first edition went to press, and have incorporated a few of the expansions to these materials, and to the commentary, that I made for the 1995 edition. All these materials were, in the 1989 edition, written by me, with the exception of the 'Note on the translation', which was (apart from its final paragraph) by Adam. Since the translation itself was also his -- and still is, overwhelmingly, despite the revisions subsequently made to it - I have left the note unchanged.
