1 When I wrote this I was under the impression, as was Professor Tawney in The agrarian problem, that the enclosure acts of 1597 were still in force under Charles I. But in fact they were temporary acts which, renewed for the last time in James I’s first parliament, expired in 1624. This appears to strengthen Professor Tawney’s argument.
