Jean-Gabriel Perboyre (6 January 1802 – 11 September 1840), was a French Catholic missionary and martyr. He was canonized in 1996.
Jean-Gabriel was born at Le Puech (now in the commune of Montgesty), Lot, France, one of eight children born to Pierre Perboyre and Marie Rigal. He entered the noviciate of the Congregation of the Mission, in the seminary of Montauban, December, 1818. On the feast of the Holy Innocents, 1820, he made the four vows of the Vincentians. He was raised to the priesthood, 23 September 1825, in the chapel of the Sisters of Charity, by Dubourg, Bishop of New Orleans, and on the following day he said his first Mass.
Shortly after, he was sent to the seminary of Saint-Flour to teach dogmatic theology, and two years later, he was appointed superior of the preparatory seminary of Saint-Flour. His success induced his superiors, in 1832, to appoint him subdirector of the novitiate in Paris. He continued in this office until 1835, when he had permission to go to China. He left Le Havre on 21 March, and on 29 August 1835, arrived at Macau, where he spent some time studying the Chinese language.
On 21 December 1835, he began his journey to Ho-Nan, the mission assigned him. In January, 1838, he was transferred to the mission of Hou-Pé. In September, 1839, the persecutions against Christians broke out in Hou-Pé, and Jean-Gabriel was one of the first victims. He was stripped of his garments and clothed with rags, bound, and dragged from tribunal to tribunal. At each trial, he was treated inhumanly. Finally, he was taken to Ou-Tchang-Fou, and after torture, was condemned to death. The sentence was ratified by an imperial edict, and on 11 September 1840, Jean-Gabriel was led to death with seven criminals. He was strangled to death on a cross at Ou-Tchang-Fou, China.
贴一段 原来此公是有名望的传教士
董文學（1802年1月6日－1840年9月11日，Jean-Gabriel Perboyre），法國天主教遣使會傳教士，
董文學於1835年來到中國，當時處於清朝的禁教時期，他秘密潛入中國內地河南、湖北一帶傳教。1838年，他終被清政府發現，並遭到逮捕，押送至武昌，於1840年9月11日在武昌受絞刑殉道。
董文學之死震動法國，1844年法國特使拉萼尼與清政府簽訂的《黃埔條約》中，特別增加保護傳教的條款，並促使道光皇帝於1846年正式解除禁教令。
