Phan Chau Trinh
(redirected from Phan Chu Trinh)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.12 sec.

Phan Chau Trinh (1872–1926)

Vietnamese nationalist. Along with Phan Boi Chau, he was a leading figure in the anti-colonial movement in Vietnam in the early 20th century. In contrast to Phan Boi Chau's commitment to a revolutionary monarchism, Phan Chau Trinh advocated Western-style republicanism. His funeral in 1926 was held in Saigon, provoking unprecedented mass demonstrations and student strikes. This heralded a new phase in the anti-colonial struggle in Vietnam, one that would involve greater popular participation.

Between 1911 and 1925 he was in France, spending some of that time in prison. From France he launched strong attacks on the Vietnamese monarchy.
