　　Within the English revolution of the mid-seventeenth century

which resulted in the triumph of the protestant ethic - the

ideology of the propertied class - there threatened another, quite

different, revolution. Its success 'might have established communal

property, a far wider democracy in political and legal

institutions, might have disestablished the state church and

rejected the protestant ethic. In "The World Turned Upside Down"

Christopher Hill studies the beliefs of such radical groups as the

Diggers, the Ranters, the Levellers and others, and the social and

emotional impulses that gave rise to them. The relations between

rich and poor classes, the part played by wandering 'masterless'

men, the outbursts of sexual freedom, the great imaginative

creations of Milton and Bunyan - these and many other elements

build up into a marvellously detailed and coherent portrait of this

strange, sudden effusion of revolutionary beliefs.

When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?

当亚当之耕也，夏娃之织也，孰为君子？

堯崩，三年之喪畢，舜避堯之子於南河之南。天下諸侯朝覲者，不之堯之子而之舜；訟獄者，不之堯之子而之舜；謳歌者，不謳歌堯之子而謳歌舜，故曰天也。

《太誓》曰：天視自我民視，天聽自我民聽，此之謂也。

Is it not plain that here, and throughout the chapter, by Heaven we must understand God？

这里乃至整个这一章当中，所谓的「天」指的就是神，这不是很显然吗？

brought young men into despair and think themselves damned because they could not (which no man can, and is contrary to the constitution of nature) behold a beautiful object without delight.【3】

把年轻人带入了绝望的境地，而且让他们认为自己受到了诅咒，因为他们无法带着喜悦去观察美好的事物（没人可以，纵使这违反自然的构造）。

the greatest burden in the world is superstition … of imaginary and scarecrow sins.

［人］在这世上最大的负担便是对臆想出来的、［实际如］稻草人一般的罪的迷信。

Its success 'might have established communal property, a far wider democracy in political and legal institutions, might have disestablished the state church and rejected the protestant ethic. In "The World Turned Upside Down" Christopher Hill studies the beliefs of such radical groups as the Diggers, the Ranters, the Levellers and others, and the social and emotional impulses that gave rise to them. The relations between rich and poor classes, the part played by wandering 'masterless' men, the outbursts of sexual freedom, the great imaginative creations of Milton and Bunyan - these and many other elements build up into a marvellously detailed and coherent portrait of this strange, sudden effusion of revolutionary beliefs.
