CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Houseb> ofb> Guise

The dukes ofb> Guise, however, as descendants ofb> the Houseb> ofb> Anjou, had certain pretensions to the Kingdom ofb> Naples, and it was doubtless with the secret intention ofb> defending these claims that François de Lorraine furthered an alliance between Henry II and Pope Paul IV which was menaced by Philip II.
Speeches were made, some aristocratic in sentiment, others democratic, but all against royal absolutism; and Guise was thenceforth the leader, not only ofb> a religious, but also ofb> a political movement.
Guise was now absolute master ofb> Paris, and for some days was all-powerful.

First Fifty

Duke ofb> Alba under houseb> arrest; Duke ofb> Guise recalled from Naples; Habsburg-Valois War ends; Guise murdered.
The Guise faction, who had played a major part in carrying out the murder ofb> Coligny, took this as an opportunity for obtaining further control in France's political affairs.
It was a period in French history especially noted for the struggle between Catholics and Huguenots, and the rivalry which broke out between the Guises and the Bourbons in their struggle to fill the power vacuum caused by the weakness ofb> the throne.
