Gonzalo Andrés Domingo Fernández de Córdoba (31 December 1585 – 16 February 1645) was a Spanish military leader during the Eighty Years' War, Thirty Years' War and the War of the Mantuan Succession. ==Biography== He was born at Cabra, in what is now the Province of Córdoba and was the third son of Antonio Fernández de Córdoba Cardona y Requesens, the Duke of Soma and was great-great-great grandchild of his namesake Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, ''the Great Capitan''. In 1624 was awarded the title of the first Prince of Maratea. He participated in the battles of Wimpfen and Fleurus, as well as in Höchst whereby Ernst von Mansfeld and Christian of Brunswick were defeated. From 1621 to 1623, commanded the Spanish troops in the Palatinate, and Flanders, and defeated the Anglo-German Protestant troops in the sieges of Bacharach and Heidelberg. From 1625 to 1629 he was Governor of the Duchy of Milan. In 1628 he took part in the War of the Mantuan Succession. When he failed to take Casale and stop the French invasion in 1629, he was called back to Madrid and court-martialed. He was reinstated a few years later and sent to the Netherlands in 1632. Here he conducted operations on the lower Rhine in the rear of the victorious army of Gustavus Adolphus, but he was unable to prevent the Capture of Maastricht by Frederick Henry, Prince of Orange. He was recalled to Spain in 1633 and died at Montalbán in 1645, without having been married, and with no issue. 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「Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba (1585–1645)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
