Boa tarde! eu sei que "fuzilado(a)" seria "shot to death". Mas o que seria "fuzilamento"? penso se deveria simplesmente dizer " his death"?? or "murder" ou existe algum termo mais específico?
Obrigada!!
Ano de 1889: cem anos da Revolução Francesa. A corrente jacobina dos republicanos brasileiros julgava ser essa a ocasião ideal para a proclamação de nossa República, que deveria, segundo ela, ser feita revolucionariamente pelo povo lutando nas ruas e nas barricadas. O principal porta-voz dessa corrente, Silva Jardim, pregava abertamente o fuzilamento do conde d’Eu, o marido da princesa Isabel. Sendo o conde um nobre francês, seu eventual **daria à revolução** brasileira um sabor especial, pois lembraria a morte na guilhotina do rei Luís XVI.

execution by shooting
Execution by shooting is a form of capital punishment whereby an executed person is shot by one or more firearms. It is the most common method of execution worldwide, used in about 70 countries,[1] with execution by firing squad being one particular form. In most countries, execution by a firing squad has historically been considered a more honorable death and was used primarily for military personnel, though in some countries, single-executioner shooting is still in use.
