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.
