Shi Congbin / 施从斌

Shi Congbin appears in 41.施剑翘复仇案：超越哈贝马斯的情与法 as Shi Jianqiao / 施剑翘’s father and the central figure in her revenge claim. The episode says he was captured by Sun Chuanfang / 孙传芳, then executed and subjected to head-display, which Shi Jianqiao later presented as an intolerable humiliation rather than an ordinary wartime death.

His role in the source is mostly posthumous. Shi Jianqiao’s leaflets, statements, and courtroom arguments repeatedly returned to his death to make the killing of Sun legible as filial duty, restoration of dignity, and moral response.

Key Claims

• Shi Congbin’s death supplies the emotional and moral ground of the case.
• The source distinguishes battlefield death from humiliating treatment after capture; this distinction made the revenge argument stronger.
• His memory was mediated through Shi Jianqiao’s public storytelling, not only through military history.

Connections

• Shi Jianqiao / 施剑翘 - daughter who made revenge for him a public cause.
• Sun Chuanfang / 孙传芳 - figure held responsible in the source’s account.
• Filial Revenge Public Sympathy - concept built around daughterly revenge and public sympathy.
• Shi Jianqiao Revenge Case - event where his death becomes the motive.
