The Levellers
Quorn Grange, Sunday 24th June 2018
The Levellers were at the heart of the radical
movement that forged the English Revolution and
created a Republic.
Dr. John Rees, the author of the best-selling book The
English Revolution takes us on a trip back in time that
captures the spirits of the raucous streets of seventeenth
century London and the fiery debates at Putney Church
where Leveller, rank-and-file soldiers of the New Model
Army, argued with their officers over the future course
of democracy.
This day-school reasserts the revolutionary nature of
the events of 1642-51; examines how – and why – they
organised; and the role played by ordinary people in this
pivotal moment of history.
“I know of few who speak
and write more wisely of the
danger we face from rapacious
power, and what we should do
about it, than John Rees”
