Maison de Guise (English: Maison de Guise) (French)

Japanese: ギーズ家 - ぎーずけ(英語表記)Maison de Guise フランス語
Maison de Guise (English: Maison de Guise) (French)
A powerful family that branched off from the prestigious House of Lorraine, a noble family in Europe. Its origins date back to 1528, when Claude, the younger brother of Anthony of Lorraine, fought under King Francis I of France and was awarded the Duchy of Guise in recognition of his military achievements. Since the Duchy of Lorraine was an independent principality until it was annexed to France in 1735, the House of Guise, which was related to it, was still considered a semi-foreign power and was often viewed with suspicion, even though it became a French noble family.

ヨーロッパの名門貴族ロレーヌ公家から分かれた有力家系。ロレーヌ公アントアーヌの弟クロードClaudeが,フランス国王フランソア1世の下で戦い,その戦功によりギーズGuise公領を授与されたことに始まる(1528)。ロレーヌ公領は,1735年フランスに帰属するまで独立した公国であったから,それに連なるギーズ家も,フランスの貴族となりながら,依然半ば外国勢力と見なされ,疑いの目で見られることが多かった。
