John Philpot Curran (24 July 1750 – 14 October 1817) was an Irish orator, politician, wit, lawyer and judge, who held the office of Master of the Rolls in Ireland. He was renowned for his representation in 1780 of Father Neale, a Catholic priest horsewhipped by the Anglo-Irish Lord, Viscount Doneraile, and in the 1790s for his defence of United Irishmen facing capital charges of sedition and treason. His courtroom speeches were widely admired. Lord Byron was to say of Curran, "I have heard that man speak more poetry than I have seen written". Karl Marx described him as the greatest "people's advocate" of the eighteenth century. rdf:langString

John Philpot Curran (24 juillet 1750 - 14 octobre 1817) est un avocat irlandais, né près de Cork. Il acquit par son talent et son patriotisme une grande réputation; fut nommé en 1784 membre de la Chambre des communes irlandaise, et devint sous la vice-royauté du duc de Bedford greffier de la chancellerie (master of rolls). Il défendit en toute occasion les droits de ses compatriotes, et se fit remarquer par cette éloquence fougueuse et imagée qui semble propre aux Irlandais. On a publié en 1805 un recueil de ses discours. Son fils a écrit sa Vie, Londres, 1819. rdf:langString
