Jacobin Club (English name) Club des Jacobins

Japanese: ジャコバン・クラブ(英語表記)Club des Jacobins
Jacobin Club (English name) Club des Jacobins
A political association formed by members of the Breton parliament at the time of the Estates General in Versailles in 1789. It was originally called the Breton Club, but after it moved to Paris and established its headquarters at the Jacobin Convent (Dominican Order), it came to be called the Jacobin Club. Its official name was the Society of Friends of the Constitution (since September 1792, the Society of Jacobins, Friends of Liberty and Equality). At first, the main purpose of the association was to hold preliminary discussions on important parliamentary matters, but as other members and private bourgeoisie joined, it became the largest private revolutionary organization in the country, assisting and representing the revolutionary government, especially during the Reign of Terror.

Japanese:
1789年,ベルサイユで三部会が開催された時,ブルターニュ出身議員で結成された政治結社。ジャコバン党ともよぶ。初めブルトン・クラブといわれたが,パリに移りジャコバン修道院(ドミニコ会)を本部としたので,ジャコバン・クラブとよばれるようになった。正式名は〈憲法の友の会〉(1792年9月以降は〈ジャコバン協会,自由と平等の友〉)。最初この結社の主たる目的は議会の重要な議事の事前討議にあったが,他の議員や民間のブルジョアの入会につれて,特に恐怖政治下には,革命政府を補佐代弁する最大の全国的な民間の革命運動組織となった。
