Richard I of England

Henry VIII is one of the many famous Kings in history and one of the the very few to pass on a legacy. He was born on June 28, 1491 in a city called Greenwich located in England. His father was King of England and did not acknowledge Henry VIII as much compared to his two older siblings. His father had viewed Henry’s older brother, Arthur as the future heir since he showed that he had the credentials to take over the throne, although only after Arthur’s death due to an unknown illness and his…

the Golden Age of England Elizabeth Tudor led a scandalous and difficult early life. With a scandalous birth and a removal from the line of succession by her father, Elizabeth had a troubled childhood. However, she would eventually become Queen Elizabeth I of England, even sometimes known as “Good Queen Bess”, “Gloriana”, and “The Virgin Queen” (www.royal.gov.uk). Her 45-year reign was considered one of England’s high points in art, religious compromise, literature, and more. I found that her…

British history, Henry VIII impacted the world and changed England through his marriages. However, the six women themselves are far more than just the ill-fated wives of a monarch desperate for a male heir.

I love your majesty according to my bond; nor more nor less” (1.1.93-93). She communicates wisdom beyond her years giving evidence to a paradox. Another example is toward the end of the scene where she foreshadows the rest of the play with a warning to…

commonwealth. the writers of the time all used religious arguments to reach drastically different conclusions though since they were all using the same source material, the bible, it is only natural that they reach many points of consensus. When Charles I came into power in 1625 religious conflicts and internal tensions had already begun to form in the aftermath of the protestant reformation. Charles believed that he had a divine right to rule and supported hierarchies in the anglican church.…

In the Anglo-Saxon era, lack of these principles often made succession matters ambiguous and often bloody, considering that England was enjoying military might, harboured expansionist ambitions and was under constant threat from neighbouring kingdoms such as Normandy. Heirs played a…

The Early Middle Ages are commonly referred to by historians as the “Dark Ages”, due to several factors, including the lack of written documents that would reveal important details about the lives of people during this time, as well as the state of political unrest and civil uprising that was at play, because of the recent collapse of the Roman Empire in Western Europe. This was a time during which nations and alliances were constantly forming and shifting, resulting in many wars and battles.…

response that was drafted a year after his excommunication in 1534. Parliament passed the act and thereby stated that the King of England is the “sovereign lord” over England and all in its domain, even the church. Along with functioning as the head and leader of the country, the King of England is also named as the head of the church, which is how the Church of England is born.
