1903年,革命党人、新闻记者沈荩因揭露“中俄密约”被慈禧太后杖毙,这是百年来人们对于“沈荩之死”最为深刻的记忆。然而这一说法,与清宫档案所记,并不吻合。由于主人公沈荩的缺场,及清政府对这一问题的讳而不言,导致“沈荩之死”不仅在沈氏遇害当年就引起很大争议,更在此后百余年中,被以各式各样的形式不断解读。这些解读虽然与历史真相出入甚大,乃至根本相悖,却比真相本身留下更为醒目的印迹。通过展现“沈荩之死”这一历史层积的过程,本文试图反思中国近代史的建构模式,追味历史事件背后的另一重历史。
In 1903, the revolutionist and journalist Shen Yiwen revealed that the “Sino-Russian secret treaty” was executed by the Empress Dowager Cixi. This is the most profound memory people have cherished over the past century for the “death of a gloomy paradise.” However, this statement does not coincide with the records of the Qing dynasty. Due to the absence of the protagonist’s indignation and the fact that the Qing government was silent on the taboo of the issue, the “death of a gloomy” not only caused controversy in the year when Shen was murdered, but more than a hundred years later, A wide range of forms of continuous interpretation. Although these interpretations have great or even incompatible with the historical truth, they leave a more striking impression than the truth itself. By showing the historical stratification process of “the death of a gloomy paradise”, this article attempts to reflect on the mode of construction of modern Chinese history and to follow another important history behind the historical events.
