This war was the first between these two countries that has happened throughout history. This war was one that would help shape the history of Europe. This war as the name entails was a war that lasted near a hundred years between England and France. The war was the start of a revolution in where the combat superiority of the knight was beginning to give way to infantry Since this war was one that took over the course of such a long period of time it is impossible to see how the two countries…

One of most drawn out themes underlying Shakespeare’s second tetralogy is the idea of authenticity; who is authentic, who is not, what is means to be authentic. On the flip side is the opposite notion—the idea of a counterfeit, an inauthentic imitation, sometimes able to fool, sometimes not. However, Shakespeare’s second tetralogy seems to blur this supposed line between what is authentic and what is counterfeit, and in doing so reveals not simply what makes an “authentic” king, but also how…

He was playing to the evangelicals in the crowd. The insincerity was dripping from every pore of this man’s body language. Of course, the main writer of “The Art of the Deal”, Brian Schwartz, said that if he were to write the book all over again, he’d title it, “The Sociopath”. What? You thought Trump wrote the book? I would never “personally” say Trump didn’t write it but I hear some are sayin’… (Trump tactic in play). Verse 26 has the Antichrist “coming to his end” as the kingdom is handed…

The Tudor Dynasty reigned over England after the War of the Roses, a bloody succession crisis ending with Henry VII, the first Tudor, becoming King of England. The Tudors reigned from 1485 to 1603, and despite their long reign the time in English History was rife with dramatic change and disorder that shaped the British Isles for centuries to come, with no small part owed to the Tudors. However, the Tudors reign or socio-economic causes for change and subsequent disorder must be evaluated. For…

Before Henry VII of England came into power, England was coming out of a fragmented feudal society and was in need of a strong ruler and government system. Rule was shifting from an oligarchy of nobles to a monarchy hungry for power and successors. The church was steadily losing its power as everything became increasingly more secular. As the church lost power rulers such as Henry were gaining. There was a need to sustain and increase this power. Niccoló Machiavelli wrote The Prince in 1513…

Kloss asserts that Diego Velázquez was “one of the greatest painters in a European century”. Perhaps the most famous painting by Velazquez is his Maids of Honor, Las Meninas, painted about 1656. It has the distinction of being probably the first painting in which a living King and a painter at work are seen together in a studio” (L36, 20:11). The subject is multifaceted; the painting is entitled Maids of Honor, referring to the princess’ maids who are attending to her, but are not the focus…

I think Velazquez was trying to portray a beautiful young girl and her hardworking maids. In the picture Velazquez was trying to portray royalty at it’s finest. A king who would only settle for the best for his daughter. She is waited on hand and foot by her hardworking maids and caretakers. This painting also shows how Velazquez wanted to emphasize how fragile this young girl was. This painting seemed to scream vulnerability. This girl looks no older than eight years old and looks like she…

Lambert Simnel not only had the claim to the throne by claiming to be the grandson of Edward IV but also substantial support. Simnel had several factors working in his favour, he was claiming to be a Yorkist in a country where many people were looking for a Yorkist king. Henry had just recently taken over the country, a Lancastrian who no one…

Warwick Perkin denied it, claimed though to be Richard, Duke of York and son of Edward IV. This would have given him…

The Life and Times of Ivan Pavlov Ivan Petrovich Pavlov was born on September 14th, 1849 in Ryazan Russia to Petr Pavlov, a priest, and Varvara Pavlov, a priest’s daughter (Windholz, 1997). Ivan was the eldest son of Petr and Varvara’s eleven children, which instilled a strong sense of responsibility and drive in Ivan very early on guiding him for the rest of his life (Schultz & Schultz, 2012). Even with his strong work ethic and drive, Ivan was unable to attend formal schooling until he was…
