He has been cited as an early example of the scholar in public life . ref Garrison, citing D. A. Bullough, Aula renovata the Carolingian court before the Aachen palace, Carolingian Renewal Sources and Heritage 1991 , 141. ref Life His early life is obscure, but he studied first under Colcu , probably at Clonmacnoise , and then under Alcuin at York , probably in the 770s. At York he met and befriended Liudger, Bishop of M nster Liudger , a Frisian people Frisian and future Bishop of M nster , whom he mentions in a poem requesting a polished staff . Joseph eventually wound up at the court of the Francia Frankish king Charlemagne , probably after accompanying Alcuin to the continent in the 780s. Joseph was at the Frankish court during a period 790s of rising anti Irish sentiment often expressed in verse , but he seems nonetheless to have established a bond of trust with both Alcuin and Charlemagne. In 787 or 788 Charlemagne sent Joseph and several others on a diplomatic mission to Rome to deal with the Papacy and to Spoleto and Benevento , the capitals of two Lombards Lombard duchies opposed to Frankish overlordship. While in southern Italy Joseph and his companions were separated by agents of the Lombard dukes and almost killed. In 790 Joseph took over Alcuin s position at court while the Northumbria n master was on unexpectedly extended business in his homeland. Thereafter his career is obscure. He eventually rose to become an abbot , but when and where are unknown. It has been suggested, on the basis of his experience in south Italian politics, that he was briefly abbot of Montecassino , but the evidence for this is slim. Writings Joseph partic ... more details

The Stellinga companions, comrades was a movement of wikt freeman frilingi and freedman lazzi , the lower two of the three Saxons Saxon non slave castes, between 841 and 845. As its aim, it desired to recuperate those rights the two castes had had when practising Germanic paganism in the 770s.
