James II - James

Japanese: ジェームズ[2世] - ジェームズ
James II - James
King of England (reigned 1685-1688). Son of Charles I. Temporarily exiled during the Puritan Revolution, he returned to England at the Restoration. As a Catholic, there were movements in Parliament opposed to his succession to the throne, but he suppressed these and succeeded his brother Charles II to the throne. He came into conflict with Parliament over his attempt to implement dictatorial rule by restoring Catholicism and establishing a standing army, and went into exile in France during the Glorious Revolution of 1688. With the support of Louis XIV, he attempted to make a comeback with his supporters (the Jacobites), but failed.

イングランド王(在位1685年―1688年)。チャールズ1世の子。ピューリタン革命で一時亡命,王政復古で帰国。旧教徒であったため議会に王位継承に反対する動きがあったが,これを抑え,兄チャールズ2世の跡をうけて即位した。旧教復活・常備軍設置により専制政治を行おうとして議会と対立し,1688年名誉革命によりフランスに亡命した。ルイ14世の援助により,その支持者(ジャコバイト)とともに再起を図ったが失敗した。
