Summary "Sir Thomas More" by Shakespeare is a historical play attributed to the playwright William Shakespeare and written in the 16th century. The text explores the tumultuous socio-political climate of England during the rise of anti-alien sentiment, focusing on the character of Sir Thomas More, a prominent statesman known for his integrity and moral courage. The beginning of the play introduces various characters in London as tensions simmer between the local English populace and foreign immigrants. It opens with a lively street scene involving a clash between English tradesmen, who are feeling wronged by the perceived arrogance of foreign merchants. As the narrative unfolds, we sense the brewing discontent that culminates into a larger uprising against the foreigners, reflecting themes of injustice, societal strife, and the quest for order. Sir Thomas More emerges as a voice of reason amidst chaos, advocating for peace and urging the rioters to reconsider their violent intentions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
