DESCRIPTION:<p>This talk will consider how and why an ancient idea&mdash\;that human beings are naturally &ldquo\;equal&rdquo\;&mdash\;became suddenly and spectacularly effectual in the early modern England. It focuses on the theory and practice of the so-called Levellers and their contribution to the emergence of what contemporary political philosophers call &ldquo\;basic equality&rdquo\; as the defining premise of modern political thought.<br>Dr. Teresa M Bejan is Associate Professor of Political Theory and a Fellow of Oriel College at the University of Oxford. She is the author of&nbsp\;<em>Mere Civility: Disagreement and the Limits of Toleration&nbsp\;</em>(2017) and is currently completing her second monograph for Harvard University Press\, tentatively entitled&nbsp\;<em>First Among Equals: Early Modern Equality in Theory and Practice</em>.&nbsp\;</p>
