The Levellers were a crucial component of a radically democratic
movement during the civil wars in seventeenth-century England. This
was to be democratic at a time when the very idea of democracy
conjured up nothing good; with its suggestion of anarchy and the
'levelling' of distinctions in rank and of property, even the
holding of women in common. This collection of thirteen fully
annotated Leveller writings, including their famous Agreements of
the People, is important as a contribution not only to the
understanding of the English civil wars, but also of democratic
theory. The editor's introduction sets the Leveller ideas in their
context and, together with a chronology, short biographies of the
leading figures and a guide to further reading, will be of interest
to students of the English civil wars, the history of political
thought and the history of democratic ideas.
