  1. "When Adam Delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?"

    Peasants' Revolt preacher John Ball asked this rhetorical question in 1381. William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones illustrated it in 1892.

    In a supposedly meritocratic UK, where "traditional" networks of inherited wealth and privilege continue to sustain inequality and exploitation, Ball's question is still worth asking.
