About Saint Bede the Venerable

Bede, also referred to as Saint Bede or the Venerable Bede, was a monk at the Northumbrian monastery of Saint Peter at Monkwearmouth, today part of Sunderland, England, and of its companion monastery, Saint Paul’s, in modern Jarrow, both in the Kingdom of Northumbria. Bede’s monastery had access to a superb library which included works by Eusebius and Orosius among many others.
