国内报纸对安重根刺杀伊藤博文事件的报道(1909—1910)

Reports from Domestic Chinese Newspapers about the Assassination of Itou Hirofumi by An Jung-geun(1909—1910)

1909年10月26日,韩国独立军参谋中将安重根在俄国东清铁路哈尔滨火车站击毙了日本枢密院议长、朝鲜统监府首任统监伊藤博文。此事件不仅震动了中日韩俄等当事国,而且还引起英美德法等欧美帝国主义国家的关注。当时国内各种报纸大量报道此事件,但因办报人追求的政治理念不同,所代表的国家利益不同,在报道的观点上存在差异,甚至截然相反。总体上看,中国人创办的报纸基本同情朝鲜面临的亡国危机,揭露日本帝国主义的侵略扩张阴谋,肯定安重根的义举,但围绕刺杀手段及其后果,革命派与立宪派报纸的观点有所不同。日本与欧美帝国主义国家的代言报纸,一方面批判安重根的刺杀手段,诋毁安重根的义举及其目的,主张严惩安重根;另一方面极力赞扬伊藤博文的"历史功绩",美化其"满洲"之行的目的,为帝国主义国家的殖民侵略辩护。

On October 26,1909,An Jung-geun,a general of Korean anti-Japanese forces,assassinated Ito Hirobumi,the Prime Minister of Japan and the first Resident-General of Korea,at Harbin railway station of the Dongqing Railway. This incident not only shocked related countries such as China,Japan,Korea and Russia,but also caused attention of Western European imperialist countries. At that time,a large number of domestic Chinese newspapers reported the incident. Due to different political ideas of the newspaper founders who represented the interest of different countries,the viewpoints of the newspapers on this incident were quite different,some even opposite. Overall,most newspapers founded by Chinese people took pity on Korea,which was on the brink of national subjugation. They revealed Japanese imperialists’ ambition for invasion and expansion,advocated for the legitimacy of An’s actions. And the national crisis consciousness was awakened. However,the revolutionaries’ and the constitutionalists’ newspapers held different opinions about An’s means of assassination and its influence. Newspapers founded by Japan,America and European imperialist countries,criticized An’s means of assassination,defamed An’s actions and purposes,and claimed that An should be punished. At the same time,they praised Ito Hirobumi’s"historical achievements",beautified his purposes of "Manchuria"trip,defended the colonial aggression of imperialist countries.
