Pierre Brizon (16 May 1878 - 1 August 1923) was a French teacher, national deputy, internationalist and pacifist. He was subject to violent attacks in the press and parliament for speaking out against the fighting during World War I. ==Early career== Pierre Brizon was born on 16 May 1878 in Franchesse, Allier, to a poor farming family. He was a gifted student, and qualified as a teacher, moving from one teaching position to another at the start of his career. He became a teacher of the national professional schools, and was appointed to a position in Armentières, Nord department. There he joined the Socialist group. He supported the struggles of workers, and wrote various articles for socialist publications. In 1905 he wrote in praise of the sailors of the Battleship Potemkin uprising, and received a letter from Bienvenu Martin, minister of public education, reproving him for not having used the reserved language required of public servants, and particularly of teachers. Around this time he also wrote a lengthy history of labor. He became a teacher at the Rennes industrial school. In the legislative elections of 1906 he was a candidate in Grenoble on the platform of the Socialist Party (SFIO, ''Section Française de l'Internationale Ouvrière''). He was not elected, perhaps because he had no ties to the region. In 1907 he was elected a councilor in the district of Bourbon-l'Archambault, Allier. Later he would become mayor of his native town. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pierre Brizon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
