What Role Does Reign Play In The 1500s

The Knight ran into an old woman who told him the answer to the question and they rode to see the Queen. The Knight told the Queen that, “A women wants the self-same sovereignty over her husband as over her lover, and master him; he must not be above her.” (214-216). It is explaining in this quote that the men must not be more powerful than their women, that women are in control of their men. This relates to how the Queen showed she had more power and control when she said the Knight could live, which meant the King had no control over the punishment. However, if the King and Queen had equal power, perhaps the Knights punishment would have been different and they would respect each other.

Your parents are still mad at you because of that one time you pooped in the bathtub when you were a toddler.This obviously doesn’t happen because, as they have done countless times, your parents forgive you. The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, depicts how by forgiving someone’s faults, one’s relationship with them can overcome the error and move on to flourish into something better. Miller shows the importance of forgiveness and how it removes the chains of resentment and spite through the characters of the play such as: Elizabeth truly forgiving Proctor, Mary-afraid of not being forgiven-lies to the court, and John Proctor forgiving himself for not being a good man. would’ve

In 1558, Queen Elizabeth at twenty-five years old, a survivor of scandal and danger and considered illegitimate by most Europeans, claimed the throne of England. Although judgement ensued, Elizabeth had a successful reign--one so great, it is regarded as the golden age of English history. Unsurprisingly, such skepticism of the female’s prominence in society has existed for not just decades but centuries into the past. As a result, the issue has permeated into not only through the years but through writings. One of the more prominent examples of such ideas is William Shakespeare’s Hamlet.

Roald Dahl's short story Lamb to the Slaughter is a very intriguing read. Dahl uses a lot of characterization throughout the story, giving subtle descriptions of what the characters are like. This happens the most with the main character, Mary Maloney. In the beginning of the story, Dahl describes Mary as as being six months pregnant, with big calm eyes. This displays a picture of innocence. The way she addresses her husband, Patrick, is caring and compassionate. As the story progresses she gets more and more uneasy until Patrick tells her very bad news, and the entire mood of the story shifts. Mary becomes removed, cold, in shock. At this point, she “simply walked up behind him and without any pause, she swung the big frozen leg of lamb high in the air and brought it down as hard as she could on the back of his head” ( ). Patrick died within seconds. Since the audience previously saw Mary as innocent and harmless, the audience is even more surprised by this sudden murder. By now her entire character has changed. She is cold, calculated.

In July of 1565, she wed a cousin named Henry Stewart, Lord Darnley, a weak, vain, and unstable young man; like Mary, he was also a grandchild of Henry VIII’s sister Margaret. Why Mary wed Darnley remains a mystery. He was superficially charming and, unlike most men, taller than the queen. He was also fond of courtly amusements and thus a nice change from the dour Scottish lords who surrounded her. But he never seemed to care for Mary and sought far more power than she was willing to give him. When she was six months pregnant in March of 1566, Darnley joined a group of Scottish nobles who broke into her supper-room at Holyrood Palace and dragged her Piedmontese secretary, David Riccio, into another room and stabbed him to death. They claimed

Mary Queen of Scots, despite contrary belief, was not a good leader. Queen Mary hardly even visited Scotland and lived at French court for most of her childhood. Mary, was the only surviving legitimate child of King James V of Scotland, and when she was six days old her father died and she inherited to the throne. She spent most of her childhood in France while Scotland was ruled by regents, until she became of age and she returned to Scotland from French Court. In 1558, she married the Dauphin of France, Francis.

Mary I’s reign started in 1553 and ended when she died in 1558. She was born to King Henry VIII of England and his first of six wives, Catherine of Aragon, in 1516 in Greenwich. Soon after, Henry VIII divorced Catherine of Aragon, claiming that their marriage was illegal, affecting Mary’s status severely. Her mother was a devout Catholic, so Mary also became one.

She ascended the throne after her younger brother, Edward, had been King for six years.

Evidently, Queen Mary’s death was a means for her husband’s political allies and enemies to reshape the future of the country. Augustus’ enemies also used Livia as a political tool to damage the reputation of his dynasty. Despite the similarities, there are differences among these post humous attacks. Livia is described by her critics as a bad mother and wife; she is the wicked stepmother and is charged by Tacitus for poisoning Augustus and killing those in line for the throne for the advancement of her own son. Mary II is criticizes by Jacobites for siding with her husband during the Glorious Revolution, which pushed her father off his throne. While Livia is primarily criticized for her failings as a mother, Mary is criticized for her actions
