John FitzGibbon, 1st Earl of Clare PC (Ire) (1748 – 28 January 1802) was Attorney-General for Ireland from 1783 to 1789 and Lord Chancellor of Ireland from 1789 to 1802. He was a controversial figure in Irish history, being described variously as a Protestant hardliner, a staunch anti-Roman Catholic, and an early advocate of political union between Ireland and Great Britain (which finally happened in 1801, shortly before his death). He is said to have been an early opponent of measures for Roman Catholic political relief (meaning the removal of some or all of the various forfeitures, civil penalties, and civil disabilities placed upon Catholics) in both Ireland and Great Britain, and may have been the first to suggest to George III that the King would violate his coronation oath if he cons

  • John FitzGibbon, 1er comte de Clare PC (Ire) (vers 1749 - 28 janvier 1802), est procureur général de l'Irlande de 1783 à 1789 et Lord Chancelier d'Irlande de 1789 à 1802. Personnage controversé de l’histoire irlandaise, il est décrit à tour à tour comme un extrémiste protestant, un fervent catholique anti-romain et un des premiers partisans de l’union politique entre l’Irlande et la Grande-Bretagne (ce qui s’est finalement produit en 1801, peu avant sa mort). Il aurait été l'un des premiers opposants aux mesures de libéralisation politique prises en faveur les catholiques romains (c'est-à-dire l'annulation de tout ou partie des confiscations diverses, des sanctions civiles infligées aux catholiques) en Irlande et en Grande-Bretagne, et le premier à suggérer à George III que le roi violerai (fr)
  • John FitzGibbon, 1. hrabia Clare, Hrabia Clare lub Lord Clare (ur. ok. 1749, zm. 28 stycznia 1802) – irlandzki polityk, od roku 1783 Prokurator generalny i lord kanclerz Irlandii od 1789. W historii Irlandii był postacią kontrowersyjną, opisywaną jako twardogłowy protestant, zagorzały przeciwnik katolicyzmu i jeden z pierwszych zwolenników zjednoczenia − pod postacią Unii − z Anglią (do czego ostatecznie doszło krótko przed jego śmiercią). Sprzeciwiał się wprowadzaniu jakichkolwiek ulg politycznych dla katolików zarówno w Irlandii, jak i w Anglii, a ponadto był pierwszym, kto zasugerował Jerzemu III, że jego koronacja zależy w dużym stopniu od tego, czy dopuści katolików do udziału w pracach parlamentu.

  • John FitzGibbon, 1:e earl av Clare, född omkring 1749, död den 28 januari 1802, var en irländsk statsman. FitzGibbon blev 1778 medlem av underhuset för Dublins universitet och 1783 generaladvokat (attorney general) samt var sedan till avslutandet av 1800 års union den främste verkställaren av Storbritanniens irländska politik. År 1789 blev han lordkansler för Irland och samtidigt irländsk peer (lord FitzGibbon), 1793 viscount FitzGibbon och 1795 . FitzGibbons namn är nära förknippat med den engelska tvångspolitiken på Irland under 1790-talet, och unionsaktens antagande tillskrivs främst hans verksamhet. Verner Söderberg skriver i Nordisk Familjebok: "Af sina motståndare gjorde han sig ursinnigt hatad, och unionisterna vora lika öfverdrifna i loford öfver den smidige mannens statsmannaegens (sv)
