	Multitext - Henry Grattan
		Grattan reputation underwent a reassessment in the late twentieth century as, instead of focussing on his achievements and inspirational example, attention was drawn to his limitations.
		Grattan was born in 1746 in Dublin, where his father James was a prominent municipal official and, between 1761 and 1766, MP for the city.
		Grattan’s conduct on this occasion was occasionally petty and spiteful, and it signalled the commencement of a phase, spanning most of the rest of the 1780s, during which Grattan’s shone only occasionally.
