克倫威爾(Oliver Cromwell 1599~1653)


 克倫威爾(Oliver Cromwell 1599~1653)

奧利佛·克倫威爾:宣誓就任英格蘭、蘇格蘭和愛爾蘭護國公;在位五年,直至逝世(1653年)。

奧利佛·克倫威爾——出生於1599年4月25日——是一個活生生的矛盾體,既不像大多數教科書所描繪的那樣嚴肅,也不像大多數教科書所描繪的那樣有原則。他的行為舉止充滿了古怪的惡作劇傾向和偶爾爆發的真誠快樂。

奧利佛·克倫威爾拒絕王位既是他最偉大的成就,也是他最大​​的錯誤。

Oliver Cromwell: was sworn in as Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland; he reigned for five years, till his death (1653)


Oliver Cromwell—who was born on April 25th 1599—was a walking paradox, neither as austere nor as principled as portrayed in most textbooks. His behaviour was marked by an oddly prankish streak and outbursts of genuine jollity

Oliver Cromwell's refusal of the crown was both his greatest achievement and his biggest mistake
