Flann Mainistrech : ウィキペディア英語版
Flann Mainistreach
Flann Mainistrech (died 25 November 1056) was an Irish poet and historian.〔See also Carey:Flann Mainistrech (d.1056); Ní Mhaonaigh:Flann Mainistrech
Flann was the son of Echthigern mac Óengusso, who had been lector at the monastery of Monasterboice (modern County Louth), in Irish ''Mainistir Buite'', whence Flann's byname, meaning "of Monasterboice". He belonged to the Ciannachta Breg, a kindred which, by the turn of the first millennium controlled Monasterboice, providing its abbots and other notables.〔Dobbs, Pedigree and Family〕 Flann himself was also ''fer légind'' (lit. 'man of textual study', i.e. lector, head of a monastic school) there, as was his father. His son, also called Echthigern (d. 1067), would become superior (''airchinnech'') of Monasterboice.〔Carey: Flann Mainistrech (d. 1056)
Flann's earliest datable works are from the years following the battle of Clontarf (1014), when Máel Sechnaill mac Domnaill of the Uí Néill resumed his reign as High King of Ireland (1014-1022). These are ''Ríg Themra dia tesbann tnú'' and ''Ríg Themrea toebaige íar ttain'', which together comprise an Uí Néill-orientated history of the kingship of Tara.〔Byrne, Ireland and her neighbours, p.866〕 Among his other poems, some apparently composed much later in his life, ''Mide maigen clainne Cuind'',〔Peter J. Smith (ed. and trans.): Mide Maigen〕 deals with Clann Cholmáin, to which Máel Sechnaill belonged, while ''Mugain ingen Choncraid chain'' and ''Síl nÁedo Sláine na sleg'' both deal with the neighbouring Uí Néill kindred of Síl nÁedo Sláine, sometime overlords over Ciannachta Breg. Flann is also attributed a series of five poems on the kings and martial history of the northern Uí Néill kingdom of Cenél nÉogain and on the legendary origins of Cenél nÉogain's fortress at Ailech.〔MacNeill (ed. and trans.): Poems by Flann Mainistrech, Gwynn (ed. and trans.): Ailech II
A number of Flann's poems appear in the ''Lebor Gabála Érenn''—the ''Book of the Invasion of Ireland''—and his works on the Tuatha Dé Danann were influential,〔Carey: Irish National Origin Legend, pp.18-22; Thanisch: Flann Mainistrech's Götterdämmerung〕 while a couple concern world history or themes from classical literature.〔Mac Airt (ed. and trans.): Middle Irish poems on world-kingship; Mac Airt (ed. and trans.): Middle Irish poems on world-kingship (suite); and Mac Airt (ed. and trans.): Middle Irish poems on world-kingship (suite). For more information, see (here ). Mac Eoin (ed. and trans. (in Modern Irish )): Dán ar Chogadh na Traoi〕 During the early modern era, Flann became known as the author of a number of prose synchronistic tracts. While the tracts are authentically medieval, non-circumstantial evidence for Flann's involvement is lacking.〔Scowcroft: Leabhar Gabhála Part 1, pp.128 (n.135), 131〕 Some of these tracts set Irish history within universal history, in the tradition of the Eusebius-Jerome ''Chronicon''.〔For one such tract, see MacCarthy (ed. and trans.), Codex Palatino Vaticanus No. 830, pp.(286 )–317〕 Another presents lists of Irish and Scottish kings arranged to show contemporaries, which is an important source for the early history of Scotland, whether or not Flann is taken as its author.〔Anderson: List of the the Kings, p.109; Broun: Irish Identity, pp.2, 171 (n.23)〕
Despite its mysterious origins, the idea that Flann authored synchronistic material has had a big impact on his subsequent interpretation by scholars. For example, Eoin MacNeill considered Flann to be the first of the synthetic historians; his supposed synthesis of biblical history and foreign world chronicles with Irish annals, myths, and genealogical records was to be much emulated by subsequent writers.〔MacNeill: Celtic Ireland, pp.26–41〕 More generally, Francis John Byrne has stated that he "''...was the leading light among the 'synthetic historians' who shaped what was to remain the official history till the seventeenth century and beyond...''" and that "''...it was largely on his () authority that the official doctrine of the monopoly of the high-kingship by the Uí Néill from the time of St Patrick to the usurpation of Brian became accepted, even by the Munster Annals of Inisfallen.''"〔Byrne, Ireland and her neighbours, pp.865–866〕 Considering his verse histories of Tara and of various Uí Néill kingdoms, Dauvit Broun has placed Flann within a central medieval historiographical movement towards promoting kingdoms over dynasties as political units; his interest in noting kings' causes of death, for instance, is to do with stressing the "''institutional longevity of a kingship in contrast with the mortality of kings.''"〔Broun, Scottish Independence, pp.39–47〕
Flann himself died on 25 November 1056, the date supplied by the ''Annals of Tigernach''. The ''Annals of Ulster'' call him "''eminent lector and master of the historical lore of Ireland''". A quatrain on Flann appears in an anonymous poem on the episcopal court of Áed úa Forréid (bishop of Armagh, 1032–1056), composed between 1032 and 1042; it provides a brief but probably near-contemporary thumbnail sketch of the man.
"''Flann, from the famous church of sweet-voiced Buite''.

''Slow the glance of the eye in his gentle head''.

''He is a magic mead scholar who imbibes ale''.

''Final scholar of the three Finns’ land is Flann''".〔Murphy (ed. and trans.), A Poem in Praise, p.155〕
