In the early 1950’s, historians who studied preindustrial Europe（which we may define here as Europe in the period from roughly 1300 to 1800）began, for the first time in large numbers, to investigate more of the preindustrial European population than the 2 or 3 percent who comprised the political and social elite: the kings, generals, judges, nobles, bishops, and local magnates who had hitherto usually filled history books.
主干（主谓宾）: Historians began to investigate the population

翻译: 二十世纪五十年代早期, 研究前工业化时代欧洲（此处我们可将其界定为约自 1300 年至 1800 年这一时期的欧洲）的史学家, 首次以众多的人数, 开始调查前工业化时代欧洲人口中的大多数, 而非那些构成了政治与社会精英阶层的百分之二或三的人口, 即国王、将军、法官、贵族、主教、以及地方上的达官显贵, 而正是这部分人一直到那时为止普遍充斥于史学著作。
