Lin Juemin

Lin Juemin (traditional Chinese: 林覺民; simplified Chinese: 林觉民; pinyin: Lín Juémín; Wade–Giles: Lin Chüeh-min; born 11 August 1887 – 27 April 1911) was a late Qing dynasty revolutionary.

[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] In 1907, Lin traveled to Japan to study at Keio University, where he joined Dr. Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary group, the Tongmenghui.

Lin attempted to begin a popular revolution in 1911 in Guangzhou after returning to his native Fujian, but he was arrested and his revolution failed.

3 days before his capture, he wrote his famous "Letter of Farewell to my Wife", which is considered an important work of Chinese writing of the early 20th century.

[11] American artist Maya Lin is related to him.

On the eve of battle, he wrote the legendary "Letter of Farewell to My Wife" (與妻訣別書), later to be considered as a masterpiece in Chinese literature. [ 12 ]
