  • Giuseppe Marco Fieschi was the chief conspirator in the attempt on the life of King Louis-Philippe of France in July 1835. Fieschi was a native of Murato in Corsica. He served under Murat, then returned to Corsica, where he was condemned to ten years imprisonment and perpetual surveillance by the police for theft and forgery. After a period of vagabondage he eluded the police and obtained a small post in Paris by means of forged papers; but losing it on account of his suspicious manner of living, he resolved to revenge himself on society. He took lodgings on the Boulevard du Temple, and there, with two members of the Société des Droits de l'Homme, Morey and Pépin by name, contrived an "infernal machine" (in French, machine infernale), consisting of twenty gun barrels, to be fired simultaneously. On July 28, 1835, as Louis-Philippe was passing along the boulevard du Temple, which connected Place de la République to the Bastille, accompanied by his three sons and a numerous staff, the machine was exploded at the height of n°50 Boulevard du Temple (a commemorative plaque has since been engraved there). A ball grazed the king's forehead, and his horse, with those of the duke of Nemours and of the prince de Joinville, was shot; Marshal Mortier was killed, with seventeen other persons, and many were wounded; but the king and the princes escaped as if by miracle. Fieschi himself was severely wounded by the discharge of his machine, and vainly attempted to escape. The attentions of the most skilful physicians were lavished upon him, and his life was saved for the stroke of justice. On his trial he named his accomplices, displayed much bravado, and expected or pretended to expect ultimate pardon. He was condemned to death, and was guillotined on February 19, 1836. Morey and Pépin were also executed, another accomplice was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment and one was acquitted. No less than seven plots against the life of Louis Philippe had been discovered by the police within the year, and apologists were not wanting in the revolutionary press for the crime of Fieschi.
  • Joseph – auch Joseph Gérard oder Joseph Marco oder Giuseppe oder Giuseppe Marco – Fieschi war der Hauptverschwörer des Attentats auf den französischen König Louis Philippe von 1835. Fieschi machte in der korsischen Legion den Feldzug von 1812 in Russland mit, trat dann in neapolitanische Dienste, und kehrte nach dem Frieden 1814 nach Korsika zurück. Nach den Hundert Tagen wurde er 1815 verabschiedet, nahm an der Expedition teil, die Joachim Murat wieder auf den Thron von Neapel erheben wollte, wurde aber mit ihm gefangen genommen und zum Tod verurteilt, jedoch als französischer Untertan begnadigt. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach Korsika hatte er wegen mehrerer Diebstähle eine zehnjährige Freiheitsstrafe zu verbüßen, und ging beim Ausbruch der Julirevolution 1830 nach Paris, wo er sich unter dem Vorwand, er sei ein politischer Märtyrer, eine Pension und verschiedene Anstellungen verschaffte. Wegen dieser Veruntreuung wurde er entlassen und so der äußersten Not preisgegeben. Er fasste den Plan eines Attentats auf den König. Er erdachte sich zu diesem Zweck eine aus 24 Flintenläufen bestehende Höllenmaschine, deren Explosion am Jahrestag der Julirevolution (28. Juli 1835) auf dem Boulevard du Temple stattfand. Der Marschall Édouard Adolphe Mortier und elf Personen aus dem Gefolge des Königs wurden getötet, der König selbst nur leicht verletzt. Fieschi wurde am 19. Februar 1836 mit seinen Mitschuldigen Théodore Pépin und Pierre Morey geköpft. Eine Folge des Attentats waren die sogenannten Septembergesetze. Da der oppositionellen Presse vorgeworfen wurde, das Klima für den Anschlag bereitet zu haben, wurde am 9. September 1835 die Zensur wieder eingeführt und die Strafen für alle Pressevergehen drastisch erhöht.

  • Fu il capo cospiratore nell'attentato a Luigi Filippo nel luglio 1835. Nonostante il cognome, non aveva nessun vincolo di parentela con la nota famiglia genovese dei Fieschi. Il cognome del padre era "Guelfi", e non è noto quando e perché Giuseppe abbia assunto il cognome "Fieschi". Dopo aver servito sotto Murat, ritornò nella natia Corsica, dove venne imprigionato e condannato a 10 anni di carcere e a perpetua sorveglianza da parte della polizia per furto e frode. Dopo un periodo di vagabondaggio, eludendo la sorveglianza della polizia, si trasferì a Parigi e lavorò per un breve periodo. Assieme ad altri due elementi facenti parte della Società per il diritto dell'uomo costruì una infernale macchina per uccidere, composta da 28 canne in grado di sparare simultaneamente. Il 28 luglio 1835, mentre Luigi Filippo transitava nei pressi della Bastiglia in compagnia dei tre figli e di un numeroso staff, l'arma fece fuoco, uccidendo diciotto persone (fra le quali il maresciallo di Francia Mortier e ferendone altre. Il re e i suoi figli rimasero illesi come per miracolo. Lo stesso Fieschi fu ferito nell'esplosione e tentò inutilmente di scappare; catturato, fu condannato alla pena di morte e ghigliottinato il 19 febbraio 1836. Con lui vennero condannati e giustiziati anche i suoi due complici principali.
