- Short Description
- "Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, Count of Mirabeau (French pronunciation: [miʁabo]; 9 March 1749 – 2 April 1791) was a French writer, orator, statesman and a prominent figure of the early stages of the French Revolution.
A member of the nobility, Mirabeau had been involved in numerous scandals that had left his reputation in ruins. Well-known for his oratory skills, Mirabeau quickly rose to the top of the French political hierarchy following his election to the Estates-General in 1789, and was recognized as a leader of the newly organized National Assembly. Among the revolutionaries, Mirabeau was an advocate of the moderate position of constitutional monarchy built on the model of Great Britain. He was also a leading member of the Jacobin Club." - (en.wikipedia.org 05.02.2024) - Entity Encoding
