Zhu Zhixin (English spelling)

Japanese: 朱執信 - しゅしっしん（英語表記）Zhū Zhí xìn

1885‐1920
Chinese revolutionary. Born in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province. Originally named Daifu. In 1904 (the 30th year of the Guangxu era), he went to Japan to study, studied at Hosei University, and participated in the founding of the China Mengxiang the following year. He was involved in revolutionary propaganda in the magazine Minbao, and was also active in armed struggle, such as party work. After the Xinhai Revolution, he followed Sun Yat-sen consistently to the Chinese Revolutionary Party and the Kuomintang, and in 1920 was asked by the rebel army to mediate, but was mistakenly killed. His death was a blow to the Kuomintang, as can be seen from the fact that Sun Yat-sen mourned the loss of a ``saint of the revolution'' when he heard of his death.

1885‐1920
中国の革命家。広東省広州の人。原名は大符。1904年(光緒30)日本に留学，法政大学に学び，翌年の中国同盟会創設に参加した。《民報》誌上の革命宣伝に従事するとともに，会党工作等の武装闘争でも活躍した。辛亥革命後も中華革命党，中国国民党と一貫して孫文に従い，20年，反乱軍に請われて調停に赴き，誤って殺された。訃に接した孫文が〈革命の聖人〉を失ったと悼んだことからもうかがえるように，その死は国民党にとって痛手であった。
