The Levellers were a political movement active in England from 1646 to 1649. They were a populist movement that emphasized equal rights, religious toleration, and reformation of political and judicial corruption. They are particularly known for their pamphlets and popular outreach. This collection consists of shorter Leveller “tracts” or pamphlets which were published cheaply and distributed on the streets throughout England during the 1640s and 1650s.
