...On September 7, 1533, Queen Elizabeth I was born to her parents, Henry VIII of England and Anne Boleyn. Elizabeth lived a difficult childhood. Her mother was shunned from the town. After her father left the throne, she was the next one in line after her older half brother died. Queen Elizabeth ruled during a time when women were not considered rulers. However, Elizabeth ruled for forty-five years after she took the throne. Her family and nobles that worked with her made her time on the throne extremely difficult. Queen Elizabeth I is often referred to as “The Virgin Queen” because she did not marry while she was on the throne. But Elizabeth was in love with her long-time friend.

...Since birth, Elizabeth I of England endured a very active, and at some times, very merciless life. Queen Elizabeth was the daughter of Henry VIII and Lady Anne Boleyn. She was born in 1533 at the Palace of Placentia, in Greenwich, England. Three years later, in 1536, her mother was sentenced to death. Henry, Elizabeth’s father, had claimed that Anne Boleyn committed treason. He believed that due to the fact that Anne never bore him a son, it must have been treason. While her father was off looking for another wife, Elizabeth was sent into the care of one of the governors. During this time, she grew up with an excellent education, developed a calm and gentle spirit, and acquired a love of Shakespeare’s work. Later, as a young adult, her older sister, Mary, became queen of England. Unlike Elizabeth, Mary was a staunch Catholic, and brought persecution against Protestants back to England. After killing over 300 Protestants, Mary was rightfully named, “Bloody Mary.” Having brought persecution back to England, Mary imprisoned Elizabeth for challenging the church, and for being suspected of taking part in a plot for the throne. This, of course, was a false...

...1. Introduction "I am called the Virgin Queen. Unmarried, I have no master. Childless, I am mother to my people. I am the queen, I am myself." This quote from the movie “Elizabeth: The Golden Age“ describes the fascination about Elizabeth I of England in few sentences. A woman, who could prevail in a male-dominated society. A woman, who waived her own fortune for the sake of her subjects. A woman, who influences the national pride of the English even today. So it is not surprising that there is plenty of literature, opera and movies about Elizabeth I. The following term paper examines three movies, where Elizabeth I is the protagonist. “Elizabeth“, with Cate Blanchett in the leading role, is about the days of her youth. The 1998 movie shows the development of a young princess, who was crowned after the death of her half sister Maria. The first years of her reign are very turbulent, because the creation of a Protestant Church by her father Henry VIII and the return to Catholicism under Maria split the nation. The inexperienced Elizabeth has to determine which religion should be the official one in order to prevent a civil war. Meanwhile her consultants give her advice to keep the line of succession by marriage. But to whom shall she entrust her heart and kingdom? At the end of the movie all problems are solved and Elizabeth creates the icon of the “virgin queen“. Nine years later, the sequel of the movie from 1998, “Elizabeth: The Golden Age“ was released. She is in her 26th...

...confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.” (para. 1). In other words, defendants obtain the constitutional right to be represented by an attorney during a trial even if the defendant cannot afford one. When one cannot afford an attorney the government appoints one to handle one’s case, at no cost. At almost every important phase of the criminal process, the suspect has the right to a lawyer. The right to council is important to defendants because they are the ones who will be most likely facing charges and without the right to counsel defendants run the risk of serving a long term jail time and/or death. * This paper will analyze two cases and discuss how the historical development of right to counsel relates to the cases, when the right to counsel attaches to criminal procedure, whether the defendants in the cases exercised their right to self-representation, and the role of the attorneys in the cases as it applies to right to counsel. The reader will gain better knowledge of what the right to counsel is and whether or not one has the right to counsel based on their situation. How Historical...

...Bottom-Up Process Individuals have the potential to interact with each other and form a huge system. These individuals can include humans, animals, insects, or places, and they are shown in the readings organizing themselves and building successful systems. In Steven Johnson’s essay, “The Myth of the Ant Queen,” he argues that the queen is not the leader of the ant colony, but the colony instinctively protects her from danger because it is in the colony’s best interest. In “An Elephant Crackup,” by Charles Siebert, the elephants instinctively grouped together in a herd so they could survive from extinction. In Rebecca Solnit’s essay, “The Solitary Stroller and the City,” people organized themselves to make their city successful. The absence of authority may have been a reason why successful systems were created by individuals working together. Someone who has authority is a person who exercises control over others. If one being was in charge, then everyone under him/her would only follow his/her instructions. People would not be able to think of their own plans, but instead they would follow only one plan that was given to them. Without an authority figure in control, individuals would rely on their instincts to guide them. Their instincts would unconsciously respond to their environment and adapt to it, so the individuals can create a successful system. They would instinctively merge their ideas together and a self-organizing system could emerge. The lack of an authority figure...

The paper gives an art criticism of a piece of art I saw at Lyman Allyn Art Museum by L.F Baeles titled On the Lake. [pic] Identification Title: On the Lake Artist: L.F Baeles Date: 1885 Medium: Oil on Canvas Size: Na Location: Lyman Allyn Art Museum Description On the Lake is a painting art done by an American artist L.F Beales in 1885. The painting was exhibited at Lyman Allyn Art Museum during 2015 august exhibition at the museum. The art is done on canvas using oil paint. In the painting, one can see a boat on the lake with two sailors. One sailor is a man, and the other is a woman. The woman in the boat is decently dressed, and she is peddling the boat. The man is gazing at the large landscape at the end of the lake. At both edges of the lake, there is a landscape covered with big bush. At a distance, there is another boat occupied by two sailors. The two sailors at the distant boat can be seen conversing with each other. The sky is very brighter with scattered brown clouds indicating that it was on a summer evening (Leiber, Alden, Mœglin-Delcroix, & Purves, T. 2001). From the look, the painting represents a couple enjoying a date at the lakeside on a summer evening.
