Amable-Gaspard-Henri, vicomte de Courtais (10 January 1790 - 10 June 1877) was a French soldier and politician. During the Second French Republic he was made a General and head of the National Guard of Paris. He failed to suppress the invasion of the Constituent Assembly by a mob on 15 May 1848 and was accused of being a traitor, but was later acquitted. ==Early years== Amable-Gaspard-Henri, vicomte de Courtais belonged to a Bourbonnais family that had been settled in Doyet for several generations since the marriage of Gilbert de Courtais with Isabeau de La Souche, heiress of the fief and château of la Souche. The family also owned the château of Chassignole at Doyet. Amable de Courtais was born on 10 January 1790 in Montluçon, Allier. He served in the army under Napoleon and during the Bourbon Restoration. On 5 September 1813 he was granted the Knight's Cross of the Legion of Honor. He retired with the rank of cavalry squadron leader. Courtais had strong democratic views. On 9 July 1842 he was elected to the National Assembly for the fourth college of Allier (Montlucon). His predecessor, Charles Gilbert Tourret, had resigned so he could be elected. The election went to a second round, in which Courtais was elected. He took his seat on the far left. He was reelected on 1 August 1846. He was a signatory in 1848 to the demand for impeachment of the ministry of François Guizot. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amable de Courtais」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
