Actors of Freedom: John Milton

on BBC Radio 3

Ideas and experiments in political liberty in Milton's England. "Everyone talks of freedom, but there are few that act for freedom." (WINSTANLEY) Partly as a result of the Civil Wars, the 1640s in England saw a radical questioning of the foundations of government. The various attempts to put these ideas into practice were the backcloth of political debate before which Milton thought and wrote. with HUGH DlCKSON, WILLIAM EEDLE, JOHN SAMSON, MICHAEL HARBOUR, SEAN ARNOLD, BARBARA BLISS, TRADER FAULKNER, DAVID BRIERLEY, HECTOR ROSS, ALAN LAWRANCE, JOHN BULL, DAVID SINCLAIR and PAUL GAYMON
