 | | At this time, Christianization by the missionaries Liudger and Willehad started; one part of East Frisia became a part of the diocese of Bremen, the other the diocese of Münster. | | | Despite their numerical superiority they failed to defeat Edzard, and in 1517 the emperor had to accept Edzard and his descendants as counts of East Frisia. | | | Original East Frisian survived somewhat longer in several remote places as for example in the islands, such as Wangerooge. |

| | Underlying this explanation is a contrast with the poorer and predominantly Lutheran villages of the East Frisia’s sandy hinterlands, or «Geest». | | | A concluding section suggests some implications of these findings for the historical sociology of communication; for the conceptualization of petitions, both as forms of symbolic action and as genres of historical evidence; and for the long-term impact that the criminalization of peasant resistance had on structures of political communication in early modern Europe. | | | This policy, in turn, was predicated on a social interpretation of East Frisia’s domestic conflicts that consisted of two fundamental propositions. |

| | This material had to have been collected after 716-8, since it refers to Egbert's mission to Iona [23] and Swithberht's death, which is believed to have occurred in c. | | | The purpose of this essay is to explore Willibrord's motivations for his mission and to challenge the view that he was sent, supported, or inspired by Wilfrid. | | | Pippin II does not yet appear on the scene and there is no reason to believe that he aided Wilfrid or would have been sympathetic to one of Wilfrid's former monks. |
