De nugis curialium (Medieval Latin for "Of the trifles of courtiers" or loosely "Trinkets for the Court") is the major surviving work of the 12th century Latin author Walter Map. He was an English courtier of Welsh descent. Map claimed that he was a man of the Welsh Marches (marchio sum Walensibus);. He was probably born in Herefordshire, but his studies and employment took him to Canterbury, Paris, Rome and to several royal and noble courts of Western Europe. The book takes the form of a series of anecdotes of people and places, offering many sidelights on the history of his own time. Some are from personal knowledge, and apparently reliable; others represent popular rumours about history and current events, and are often far from the truth.

  • 『宮廷人の閑話』(きゅうていじんのかんわ、De nugis curialium)は、12世紀のラテン語作家ウォルター・マップの主要な現存している作品。彼はウェールズを出自とするイングランドの廷臣だった。マップはの人物だとされている。彼はおそらくヘレフォードシャーで生まれたが、学業と仕事は、カンタベリー、パリ、ローマと、いくつかの西ヨーロッパの王族と貴族の下で行っていた。この本は、人や場所に関する逸話の叢書の形式で、その時代の歴史について様々な側面を語っている。その内のいくつかは個人の知識に由来しており、明確に信頼できるものだが、それ以外は過去や現在の事象に関する大衆的な噂話に由来しており、しばしば事実とはかけ離れている。 (ja)
