Encyclopedia Britannica



NOTHOMB, JEAN BAPTISTE, BARON (18o5-1881)

This article appears in Volume V19, Page 823 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NEW-NUM
NOTHOMB, JEAN BAPTISTE, BARON (18o5-1881) , Belgian statesman and diplomat, was born at Messancy in Luxemburg on the 3rd of July 18o5. He was educated at the
Athenaeum
  of Luxemburg and the university of Liege. He was in Luxemburg when the revolution of August broke out, but was nominated a member of the commission appointed to draw up the constitution. He was a member of the national congress, and became secretary-general of the ministry of foreign affairs under Surlet de Chokier. He supported the candidature of the duke of Nemours, and joined in the proposal to offer the crown to Prince
Leopold
  of Saxe-Coburg, being one of the delegates sent to London. When the Eighteen Articles were replaced by the Twenty-four less favourable to Belgium, he insisted on the necessity of compliance, and in 1839 he faced violent opposition to support the territorial cessions in Limburg and Luxemburg, which had remained an open question so
long
  as Holland refused to acknowledge the Twenty-four Articles. His Essai historique et politique sur la revolution bilge (1838) won for him the praise of
Palmerston
  and the
cross
  of the Legion of Honour from Louis Philippe. In 1837 he became minister of public works, and to him was largely due the rapid development of the Belgian railway
system
 , and the increase in the mining industry. In 1840 he was sent as Belgian
envoy
  to the Germanic confederation, and in 1841, on the fall of the Lebeau ministry, he organized the new cabinet, reserving for himself the
portfolio
  of minister of the interior. In 1845 he was defeated, and retired from parliamentary
life
 , but he held a number of diplomatic appointments before his death at Berlin on the 6th of September 1881.
See T. Juste, Souvenirs du baron Nothomb (Brussels, 1882).
