Columbanus

Japanese: コルンバヌス - こるんばぬす(英語表記)Columbanus
Columbanus

A monk and saint from Northern Ireland. In 590, together with 12 monks from Bangor Abbey, he founded three monasteries, including Luxeuil, in the Vosges Mountains in the Frankish Burgundian territory, and educated many children of Frankish nobles as monks. However, due to the resentment of the Frankish Church against his Irish customs and the anger of Burgundian King Theuderic II's mother, Empress Brunhilde, for refusing to bless the illegitimate child of the king, Columbanus was banished from the Vosges in 603. He traveled throughout Gaul, and on his way to Rome, he founded monasteries in Bregenz on Lake Constance and in Bobbio in northern Italy. He died in Bobbio without reaching Rome.

北アイルランドの修道士、聖人。590年バンゴール修道院の12名の修道士とともに、フランクのブルグント分国領のボージュ山地にリュクシーユなど三つの修道院を設立し、多くのフランク貴族の子弟を修道士として教育した。しかし、アイルランド的な異質な慣習に対するフランク教会側の反感と、ブルグント分国王テウデリクス2世の庶子に対する祝福拒否による、同王の母后ブルンヒルデの怒りとにより、603年コルンバヌスはボージュの地を追放された。ガリア各地を遍歴し、ローマに向かう途上、ボーデン湖畔のブレゲンツと北イタリアのボッビオとに修道院を設立した。ローマに達することなく、ボッビオが終焉(しゅうえん)の地となった。
