摘要
贵格会是英国"空位期"间新兴的一支激进教派。在其兴起之时,社会上各色小册子极度流行,形成了所谓的"小册子大战"局面。在此背景下,早期贵格会十分重视小册子的出版活动。无论是传播教义、开展宗教论战,还是参与政治活动,出版小册子都是他们最重要的手段之一。仅仅在1652年到1656年间,他们就出版了将近300种不同标题的出版物,平均每周新出版一种以上。所以,贵格会成为革命期间最热衷于运用小册子出版的宗教派别。他们声势浩大的小册子出版活动,不仅推动了自身的迅速发展,而且在很大程度上影响到了当时政治局势。
Quakers is an English radical religious sect which rised during the England Interregnum. Before Quakers’ rise, all sorts of pamphets were very popular, which was named "pamphet war" by historian. In the background, early Quakers paid much attention to the pamphet publication. It is one of the most important measures which was used to spread doctrines, participate in religious debate and political movement. From 1652 to 1656, they had pressed nearly 300 different kinds of tracts. So, Quakers became the most remarkable religious sect which was high on pamphet publication. Their movement of pamphet publication not only promoted the development of itself, but also greatly affected the political situation of that time.
