Aengus the Culdee : ウィキペディア英語版 | Óengus of Tallaght
Óengus mac Óengobann, better known as Saint Óengus of Tallaght or Óengus the Culdee,〔This nickname was first assigned to him, on no apparent authority, by John Colgan in the 17th century.〕 was an Irish bishop, reformer and writer, who flourished in the first quarter of the 9th century and is held to be the author of the ''Félire Óengusso'' ("Martyrology of Óengus") and possibly the ''Martyrology of Tallaght''. Little of Óengus's life and career is reliably attested. The most important sources include internal evidence from the ''Félire'', a later Middle Irish preface to that work, a biographic poem beginning ''Aíbind suide sund amne'' ("Delightful to sit here thus") and the entry for his feast-day inserted into the ''Martyrology of Tallaght''. ==Background==
He was known as a son of Óengoba and grandson of Oíblén,〔''Martyrology of Tallaght'', p. 22. (''Oengusa episcopi huí Oíbleáin''); however, ''Aíbind suide sund amne'', stanza 2, has ''mac Oíblén''.〕 who is mentioned in a later genealogy as belonging to the Dál nAraidi, a ruling kindred in the north-east of Ireland. A late account prefaced to the Martyrology asserts that Óengus was born in Clúain Édnech or Eidnech (Clonenagh, Co. Laois), not far from the present town of Mountrath, and brought up at the monastic school founded there by St Fintan, where also his body was buried. The claim may be spurious, since the ''Félire'' itself accords no such importance to the monastic foundation or its patron saint St Fintan.
