Deutsch: Benjamin Franklin Butler (* 5. November 1818 in Deerfield, New Hampshire, USA; † 11. Januar 1893 in Washington) war ein US-amerikanischer Jurist, Politiker, Gouverneur und General der Unionsarmee.
English: Benjamin Franklin Butler ( November 5 1818 – January 11, 1893) was an American lawyer and politician who represented Massachusetts in the United States House of Representatives and later served as its governor. During the American Civil War, his administration of occupied New Orleans, his policies regarding slaves as "contrabands", his ineffectual leadership in the Bermuda Hundred Campaign, and the fiasco of Fort Fisher rank him as one of the most controversial "political generals" of the war. He was widely reviled for years after the war by Southern whites, who gave him the nickname "Beast Butler".
Español: Benjamin Franklin Butler ( 5 de noviembre de 1818 - 11 de enero de 1893) fue un político de Estados Unidos, legislador por Massachusetts y gobernador del mismo estado.

Han representerte Massachusetts i det amerikanske senatet og var senere guvernør for delstaten. Under den amerikanske borgerkrigen var han en kontroversiell figur, og han var hatet i sørstatene i årevis etterpå, hvor han hadde kallenavnet «Beast Butler».
