1620‐88 Elector of Brandenburg from the House of Hohenzollern. Reigned from 1640 to 1688. Known as the "Great Elector" for his achievements. Through skillful diplomacy, he liberated the Duchy of Prussia from Polish sovereignty, and especially in terms of domestic politics, he suppressed the power of privileged nobles and autonomous cities, introduced a standing army and a tax system, and established the foundations of a centralized bureaucratic administrative system. In this respect, he is considered a pioneer of Prussian absolutism. [Osamu Naruse] Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
1620‐88 ホーエンツォレルン家のブランデンブルク選帝侯。在位1640‐88年。その治績により〈大選帝侯〉と呼ばれる。巧みな外交で属領プロイセン公国をポーランドの宗主権から解放したほか,とくに国内政治の面で,特権的な貴族や自治都市の勢力を押さえ,常備軍と租税制度を導入し,集権的な官僚行政機構の基礎を据えた。この点で,プロイセン絶対主義の先駆者とみなされる。【成瀬 治】 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
