 Guizot, Francois Pierre Guillaume (I).
1787, (I. 1871), French historian and states-
man, born at Nimes, and brought up at
Geneva by his mother. In 1805 he went to
Paris, where seven years later he obtained
the professorship of modern history at the
Sorbonne. In 1811 he was secretary-general
of the ministry of the interior, and after
the second restoration entered the ministry
of justice. He founded the party of the
J)a(-t-1'i1/r(irm, who tried to reconcile the
revolution and the restoration. 1111830
he was elected deputy for Lisieux, and
after the revolution became minister of the
interior. From 1832 to 1836 he was minister
of public instruction, but quarrelled with
Thiers. In 1839 he again joined him, and
next year went to London as ambassador,
from whence he was recalled by Louis
Philippe, and was chief minister actually,
though not nominally, until 1848, during
which time he conducted French foreign
policy, at first with success, but after the
Spanish marriage intrigue lost the good-will
of England. His resistance to all reforms
overthrew him in France, and his political
career closed with the revolution of 1848,
after which he went to London. Chief
among his historical works, to the writing
of which he henceforth devoted himself
while living near Lisieux, are his IIis'tm‘g/ of
the English Rural/(lion, Jlixloirmiola L'il'ili-
mtion on. France, and Ifistnirc I’m‘lcmcntaim
