Josip Jelačić

Japanese: イェラチッチ（英語表記）Josip Jelačić

1801‐59
Governor of Croatia in northern Yugoslavia. Although he was pro-Austrian from his youth, he also participated in the Illyrian movement, which advocated the unification of the South Slavic peoples. During the revolution of 1848-49, he was appointed Governor of Croatia by the Austrian Emperor. To gain the support of the people, he declared the abolition of feudal relations, but was influenced by the Vienna conservatives and marched to suppress the Hungarian Revolution. Even in Vienna, Croatian soldiers were feared as counter-revolutionaries of the "Red Mantle." In return, he was approved to annex Dalmatia and Rijeka.

1801‐59
ユーゴスラビア北部，クロアチアの総督(バン)。青年時代から親オーストリア的であったが，南スラブ族の統一を唱えるイリュリア運動にも参加。1848‐49年の革命期に，オーストリア皇帝からクロアチア総督に任命された。民衆の支持を得るため封建的諸関係の廃止を宣言する一方，ウィーン保守派の影響を受け，ハンガリー革命鎮圧のために進軍。ウィーンでも，クロアチア兵は〈赤マント〉の反革命軍として恐れられた。見返りとして，ダルマツィアとリエカの併合を承認された。
