“独其一死可塞责”--江召棠之死与清末南昌教案

The Death of Jiang Zhaotang and Religion Case of Nanchang in Late Qing Dynasty

南昌教案是庚子后中国最大的一起教案和因教案引起的交涉案件。此案之所以引起巨大轰动,主要因为它是一起涉嫌"教士戕官"的独特案件。围绕南昌县令江召棠之死,局内和局外各方因立场、感情和信息来源的不同,存在着巨大的认知和言说上的差距,使此案一时扑朔迷离,至今未有定论。实际上,江召棠伤于被逼自刎,死于大吏的劝导。中法善后合同是双方互相让步的结果。

The Religion Case of Nanchang made a great stir for the involvement of priests who were suspected of murdering the official.There was still no conclusion of the death case of Nan Chang magistrate Jiang Zhaotang.In fact,Jiang was forced to injure and kill himself.The aftercare contract was a concession between China and French.
