Henri-François d'Aguesseau

Japanese: ダゲッソー（英語表記）Henri‐François d’Aguesseau

1668‐1751
French jurist and politician. He was appointed prosecutor of the Paris Parlement (1691) from a distinguished legal family, and served as Chief Prosecutor (1700) and chancelier for many years (1717-50). He was forced into seclusion for a time (1718-20, 1722-27) due to conflicts with John Law and Cardinal Dubois (1656-1723), but his efforts toward legal unification, particularly in drafting royal decrees on gifts (1731) and wills (1735), were important. He was an erudite and eloquent student of Domas and Malebranche.
