dc.description.abstract“A Description of the Famous Kingdome of Macaria” is a 1641 utopian fiction attributed to Gabriel Plattes, though published under Samuel Hartlib's name. Written as a political dialogue, the short text outlines a reformed Christian society and welfare state, addressing economic development, taxation, and education. Inspired by Thomas More's “Utopia” and Francis Bacon's “New Atlantis”, it reflects the political ambitions of Hartlib and his followers, including John Dury.
