    • 1639 Words
    • 7 Pages

    The Tragedy of Richard III was based on the true life king who ruled 1483 to 1485, just two short years. Richard III was no doubt a really bad guy. He was a murderer, a tyrant, a hypocrite, and a traitor. Shakespeare presents Richard in an extremely negative way throughout the entire play.

He was motivated by his…

In many ways, it would set the standard for all other gothic cathedrals: It is the Cathedral of Our Lady of Chartres. Chartres Cathedral stands on a hill above the river Eure, in the town of Chartres. Its spires rise like beacons on the horizon, and can bee seen miles away. Today, its majestic carved towers and facades project a mediaeval…

The brothers had three times the chance to make a claim to the throne, as all of them had an equal claim to it through their maternal heritage. Albeit they did not use it to their advantage or were unable to use it. John wasted his claim by supporting another, which would have…
