摘　　要：千禧年主义特指一种具有救赎意识的大众激进运动,它反映了特定的思想与行为模式。太平天国运动的千禧年性质体现在太平理想与天国的想象、救世主及救赎意识、运动的人民性、暴力杀妖、宣扬醒悟时刻已经到来诸方面。太平天国的千禧年主义并非西方基督教千禧年主义中传的结果,它源于洪秀全结合中国的思想文化传统对基督教进行创造性改造而形成的独特神学。笔者通过对19世纪世界范围内千禧年运动的比较考察,表明太平天国运动实为传统中国人面临现代性压力所作出的独特回应。Millenarianism refers to a radical mass movement which reflects a particular mode of thinking and action with a sense of redemption. The Taiping Rebellion is considered as a millenarian movementdue to its'Taiping'ideal,the coming of the savior,the mass- based appeal and a crusade against evils. However,the millenarianism exemplified in the Taiping Rebellion should not be regarded as a pure Western Christian millenarianism. Instead it should be viewed as a particular kind of theology derived from Hong Xiuquan's combination of traditional Chinese culture and the innovation of Christianity. A comparative study engaging worldwide millenarian movements of the 19 th century reveals that the Taiping Rebellion actually represents the Chinese people's particular response to the coming of modernity.
