Don Andrés Guzmán y Ruiz Castro t'Scerlaes de Tilly, comte de Guzmán (1753 – 1794), or Andrés María de Guzmán, was a Spanish aristocrat and a radical revolutionary of the French Revolution.
Biography[edit | edit source]
Born in Spain, Guzmán moved to France in 1778, where he lived lavishly, bringing him to the verge of bankruptcy. At the height of the French Revolution, he joined the extreme radical camp of Jacques Hébert and the Enragés, becoming an intensely vocal opponent of the Girondists, particularly their policy of spreading the revolution through war.[1]
Guzmán often incited the crowd at the Louvre gardens and advocated politicial execution.[2] He also became part of the Bande noire, a group of speculators who issued false bank notes and purchased various châteaux and abbeys at reduced prices.[1]
After the Girondists were executed, the Assassin Council of the Parisian Brotherhood sent Arno Dorian to eliminate Guzmán as retribution for his role in the deaths of the Girondists. While Guzmán spoke under heavy guard to a crowd in the Louvre gardens on the downfall of the Girondists, Arno was able to kill him.[2]
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Historically, Guzmán was executed by the guillotine the same day as Georges Danton.
- In his database entry, Guzmán is referred to as an Enragés, but historically he was not a member of this group. This may be the result of confusing the Enragés with Jacques Hébert's group, the Exagérés.
- Even if Guzmán spots Arno, he will not engage him in combat or attempt to flee.
