试论明朝万历年间江西人民与矿监税使的斗争

On the Fight of People in Jiangxi Against Mine Supervisors and Tax Collectors during Wanli Years in Ming Dynasty

明朝万历皇帝为了满足其对金银财富的占有欲,派遣了大批亲信宦官到全国各地充当矿监税使,开矿征税,搜刮民财。遣往江西的潘相和李道的种种胡作非为激化了朝廷与地方、官府与民间的矛盾,加速了明朝的衰落和灭亡,显示了江西人民和万历年间有正义感文官集团的巨大力量。

Wanli Emperor in Ming Dynasty sent a large number of trusted eunuchs as mine supervisors and tax collectors to all over the country to collect money for satisfying his greediness for gold and silver. Pan Xiang and Li Dao were sent to Jiangxi Province. What they did sharpened the conflict between the court and local are-as,and between the government and citizens,accelerating the decline and downfall of Ming Dynasty. In the meantime,the fight against the mine supervisors and tax collectors shows the mighty power of people in Jiangxi and the intellectual group with a sense of justice.
