The Diggers shared a collective vision of a common ownership of the land. Among the themes explored in these essays are the power and continuing influence of Winstanley's writings, his ideas on civil liberty, the economic and political background against which the Digger's operated, their treatment at the hands of their opponents, their attitude to women and family, and the role of the Bible in their thinking.
