Beskrivning

The Levellers sought to restructure the state in 1647-9 around popular consent and liberty for conscience, especially in their Agreement of the People. Following the Levellers, Volume Two examines the later political efforts of Leveller spokesmen like John Lilburne, John Wildman, and Richard Overton, and their followers.

“The second volume engages extensively with Leveller ‘successors’ during the interregnum and Restoration. … The [volume] is thoughtfully structured and the straightforwardness of prose is effective.” (Edward Legon, Parliamentary History, Vol. 38 (3), 2019)
