Both monasteries were founded by Saint Benedict Biscop, their teacher. He is known as a writer and scholar, his best-known work being the Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (Ecclesiastical History of the Anglo People), which earned him the title of "Father of English History". Beda wrote on many other subjects, from music to religion. In fact, at times, he is considered one more Church Father.Almost everything that is known about his life is found in an annex added by him in his Historia ecclesiastica (v.24). He completed the work in 731 and says he was then in his 59th year of life, giving a probable date of birth in 672-673.
