Peter Giles was a Dutch humanist and a close associate of Sir Thomas More, known for his role as a translator and editor. In More's "Utopia," Giles is depicted as a friend who facilitates the dialogue between More and Raphael Hythloday, the traveler who describes the ideal society of Utopia. His presence underscores the humanist ideals of friendship, learning, and the pursuit of truth, contributing to the philosophical discussions about society and governance in the text.
