Description
The World Turned Upside Down: Radical Ideas During the English Revolution
Christopher Hill's groundbreaking study of the mid-seventeenth century English revolution, which challenged the established order and threatened to upend the social and economic status quo.
This book explores the beliefs of radical groups such as the Diggers, the Ranters, and the Levellers, and the social and emotional impulses that drove their movements. Hill examines the complex relationships between the rich and poor, the role of wandering "master-less" men, and the outbursts of sexual freedom and blasphemy that characterized this period.
