At the end of the English Civil War, Gerrard Winstanley and his
comrades, known as Diggers, went to St. George's Hill, to farm the
common land and to distribute the food for free amongst themselves.
Winstanley's extraordinary writings from this period have remained
a huge influence for many on the Left and are cited as some of the
earliest examples of communist thought. Legendary voice of the Left
Tony Benn examines Winstanley's work and argues that, as we face an
ever greater enclosure of the commons, he can still inspire us to
turn our world upside down. Revolutions classic revolutionary
writings set ablaze by today's radical writers. This essential
series features classic texts by key figures who took center stage
during a period of insurrection. Each book is introduced by a major
contemporary radical writer who shows how these incendiary words
still have the power to inspire, to provoke and maybe to ignite new
revolutions.
