Born a <a href="/wiki/Northumbria" title="Northumbria">Northumbrian</a> noble, he entered religious life as a teenager and studied at <a href="/wiki/Lindisfarne" title="Lindisfarne">Lindisfarne</a>, at <a href="/wiki/Canterbury" title="Canterbury">Canterbury</a>, in <a href="/wiki/Francia" title="Francia">Francia</a>, and at Rome; he returned to Northumbria in about 660, and became the abbot of a newly founded monastery at <a href="/wiki/Ripon" title="Ripon">Ripon</a>. In 664 Wilfrid acted as spokesman for the Roman position at the <a href="/wiki/Synod_of_Whitby" title="Synod of Whitby">Synod of Whitby</a>, and became famous for his speech advocating that the Roman method for calculating the date of Easter should be adopted. His success prompted the king's son, <a href="/wiki/Alhfrith" title="Alhfrith">Alhfrith</a>, to appoint him Bishop of Northumbria. Wilfrid chose to be consecrated in Gaul because of the lack of what he considered to be validly consecrated bishops in England at that time. During Wilfrid's absence Alhfrith seems to have led an unsuccessful revolt against his father, <a href="/wiki/Oswiu_of_Northumbria" class="mw-redirect" title="Oswiu of Northumbria">Oswiu</a>, leaving a question mark over Wilfrid's appointment as bishop. Before Wilfrid's return Oswiu had appointed <a href="/wiki/Saint_Chad" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint Chad">Ceadda</a> in his place, resulting in Wilfrid's retirement to Ripon for a few years following his arrival back in Northumbria. </p><p>After becoming <a href="/wiki/Archbishop_of_Canterbury" title="Archbishop of Canterbury">Archbishop of Canterbury</a> in 668, <a href="/wiki/Theodore_of_Tarsus" title="Theodore of Tarsus">Theodore of Tarsus</a> resolved the situation by deposing Ceadda and restoring Wilfrid as the Bishop of Northumbria. For the next nine years Wilfrid discharged his episcopal duties, founded monasteries, built churches, and improved the <a href="/wiki/Liturgy" title="Liturgy">liturgy</a>. However his <a href="/wiki/Diocese" title="Diocese">diocese</a> was very large, and Theodore wished to reform the English Church, a process which included breaking up some of the larger dioceses into smaller ones. When Wilfrid quarrelled with <a href="/wiki/Ecgfrith_of_Northumbria" title="Ecgfrith of Northumbria">Ecgfrith</a>, the Northumbrian king, Theodore took the opportunity to implement his reforms despite Wilfrid's objections. After Ecgfrith expelled him from York, Wilfrid travelled to Rome to appeal to the papacy. Pope <a href="/wiki/Pope_Agatho" title="Pope Agatho">Agatho</a> ruled in Wilfrid's favour, but Ecgfrith refused to honour the papal decree and instead imprisoned Wilfrid on his return to Northumbria before exiling him. </p><p>Wilfrid spent the next few years in <a href="/wiki/Selsey" title="Selsey">Selsey</a>, now in <a href="/wiki/West_Sussex" title="West Sussex">West Sussex</a>, where he founded an <a href="/wiki/Episcopal_see" title="Episcopal see">episcopal see</a> and converted the pagan inhabitants of the <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Sussex" title="Kingdom of Sussex">Kingdom of Sussex</a> to Christianity. Theodore and Wilfrid settled their differences, and Theodore urged the new Northumbrian king, <a href="/wiki/Aldfrith_of_Northumbria" title="Aldfrith of Northumbria">Aldfrith</a>, to allow Wilfrid's return. Aldfrith agreed to do so, but in 691 he expelled Wilfrid again. Wilfrid went to Mercia, where he helped missionaries and acted as bishop for the Mercian king. Wilfrid appealed to the papacy about his expulsion in 700, and the pope ordered that an English council should be held to decide the issue. This council, held at <a href="/wiki/Austerfield" title="Austerfield">Austerfield</a> in <a href="/wiki/South_Yorkshire" title="South Yorkshire">South Yorkshire</a> in 702, attempted to confiscate all of Wilfrid's possessions, and so Wilfrid travelled to Rome to appeal against the decision. His opponents in Northumbria excommunicated him, but the papacy upheld Wilfrid's side, and he regained possession of <a href="/wiki/Ripon_Cathedral" title="Ripon Cathedral">Ripon</a> and <a href="/wiki/Hexham_Abbey" title="Hexham Abbey">Hexham</a>, his Northumbrian monasteries. Wilfrid died in 709 or 710. After his death, he was venerated as a saint. </p><p>Historians then and now have been divided over Wilfrid. His followers commissioned <a href="/wiki/Stephen_of_Ripon" title="Stephen of Ripon">Stephen of Ripon</a> to write a <i><a href="/wiki/Vita_Sancti_Wilfrithi" title="Vita Sancti Wilfrithi">Vita Sancti Wilfrithi</a></i> (or <i>Life of Saint Wilfrid</i>) shortly after his death, and the medieval historian <a href="/wiki/Bede" title="Bede">Bede</a> also wrote extensively about him. Wilfrid lived ostentatiously, and travelled with a large retinue. He ruled a large number of monasteries, and claimed to be the first Englishman to introduce the <i><a href="/wiki/Rule_of_Saint_Benedict" title="Rule of Saint Benedict">Rule of Saint Benedict</a></i> into English monasteries. Some modern historians see him mainly as a champion of Roman customs against the customs of the <a href="/wiki/Celtic_Christianity" title="Celtic Christianity">British and Irish churches</a>, others as an advocate for <a href="/wiki/Monasticism" title="Monasticism">monasticism</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background">Background</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wilfrid&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Background"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Heptarchy" title="Heptarchy">Heptarchy</a></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:British_seventh_century_kingdoms.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="Map of the island of Great Britain.

The discrepancy over his death date involves the fact that two dates were associated with Wilfrid's cult, 24 April and 12 October. Stephen of Ripon expressly states that Wilfrid died on a Thursday, and neither date in 709 was a Thursday. 24 April 710, however, was a Thursday, and is likely to be Wilfrid's death date. A complication is the fact that the October date is the more common commemoration date, but the April date is the one first associated with Wilfrid's cult, appearing in 7th- and 8th-century saints calendars. The October date probably arose because the April date conflicted with <a href="/wiki/Lent" title="Lent">Lent</a> and <a href="/wiki/Easter" title="Easter">Easter</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-DNB_22-30" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DNB-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-195"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-195">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">The epitaph is recorded in Book V, Chapter XIX.
