In «The Digger Movement in the Days of the Commonwealth,» Lewis Henry Berens expertly chronicles a pivotal yet often overlooked social upheaval in 17th-century England. Through a blend of historical analysis and vivid narrative, Berens explores the Diggers, a radical faction advocating for agrarian socialism and communal land ownership in response to the turmoil following the English Civil War. The book is characterized by Berens's meticulous research, which intricately weaves primary sources and contemporary accounts, situating the Diggers within the broader context of the political and religious ferment of the era, making it a foundational text for understanding the interplay between radical ideologies and social movements during the Commonwealth period. Lewis Henry Berens, a noted historian and social critic, was deeply influenced by the themes of egalitarianism and land reform that echoed in the works of earlier thinkers like Thomas More and John Locke. His profession and staunch advocacy for the working class led him to delve into the struggles of the Diggers, whose vision of a more equitable society resonated with the pressing issues of his own Victorian context, where industrialization and class stratification were paramount concerns. This book is highly recommended for scholars of English history, social movements, and political philosophy, as it provides both a compelling narrative and vital insights into the radical thought of the 17th century. Berens's nuanced examination not only enlightens readers about the Digger Movement but also encourages reflection on contemporary issues of land use, community, and social justice.
