The document discusses Elizabeth I's refusal to marry despite pressure from Parliament and suitors. It provides context for her rejections of marriage proposals from Philip II of Spain, Eric of Sweden, Archduke Charles of Austria, Henry Duke of Anjou, and Francis Duke of Anjou. Elizabeth viewed herself as married to England and believed remaining single allowed her to rule independently without threat to her authority. She delayed naming an heir to prolong control over succession, frustrating Parliament.
Westmoreland wishes he had more men from England to join the fight. King Henry says that if they are meant to die, the men they have are enough, and if meant to live, fewer men means greater honor for each. He tells Westmoreland not to wish for one more man, as he does not want to lose any part of the honor for himself. King Henry then tells Westmoreland to proclaim to the troops that any man unwilling to fight should leave, as they do not want to die alongside cowardly men.
Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week and Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. The crowds welcomed Jesus as their Messiah and King by shouting scripture, but five days later would reject him. As Christians enter Holy Week, they should consider what Christ's kingdom means - that through faith in Jesus as King, believers are part of a kingdom not just experienced after death but one that is present through changed lives reflecting kingdom values of love, forgiveness and justice.
Medea writes Jason a spiteful letter accusing him of abandoning her and their children to marry another woman. She says she defied her father and killed her brother to escape with Jason, yet he has brought her nothing but pain. Jason responds angrily, denying responsibility for Medea's actions and claiming he married the princess to provide wealth and more children for their family, not to banish Medea. He calls her a sick, hateful creature and says she got herself exiled through her own selfishness and mouthiness.
Medea writes Jason a spiteful letter blaming him for her crimes and the death of their children. She claims she betrayed her family and killed her brother to be with him. While Jason responds that he never asked her to commit these crimes. He says he tried to provide a home and wealth for them by marrying into the royal family, but Medea killed their children and his bride out of jealousy. Jason accuses Medea of being selfish and bringing her exile upon herself with her violent actions.
This document contains two passages about judgment and redemption. The first passage discusses how defining true worshipers sets boundaries between who is included and excluded. The second biblical passage from Malachi describes the coming day of judgment where arrogant evildoers will be burned like chaff while the righteous will skip with healing. It also references Elijah coming before the day of the Lord to encourage people to return to God so judgment can be avoided.

When Shakespeare was born in the late 16th century, Queen Elizabeth I ruled England. After her death in 1603, King James I took over until his death in 1625. England experienced three major plagues during this period, including while Shakespeare was writing. Shakespeare's works were influenced by the monarchs in power - his comedies became more romantic under King James I. English society at the time was stratified into four classes from nobility to poor. Theaters featured young boys playing women's roles, with spectators having different seating options at varying price points around or on the stage.

Elizabeth I ruled England from 1558 to 1603 during what is known as the Elizabethan Age. As queen, she helped shape England by establishing a stable monarchy, developing legal institutions, encouraging commerce, and establishing the Protestant religion. She never married or produced an heir, instead dedicating herself to ruling England. During her long reign, England prospered culturally and economically through expansion of the government, cooperation with powerful men, and capable ministers who helped her effectively govern. The Elizabethan era saw the rise of great English literature and architecture.

As queen, Elizabeth faced challenges to her legitimacy but asserted herself, saying "Much suspected of me, Nothing proved can be." She emphasized ruling fairly and with the support of her people, saying "I have ever used to set the last Judgment Day before mine eyes, and so to rule as I shall be judged to answer before a higher judge."

The CRC's first 300 years from 1536 to 1834 saw both defeat and victory for Calvinism. In 1536, John Calvin published the first edition of the Institutes of the Christian Religion which laid out the theological foundations of Calvinism. However, the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre of 1572 was a major defeat, killing thousands of Huguenots. Yet the 80 Years' War resulted in victory, establishing the independent Dutch Republic.

Eventually, a peace treaty in 1153 recognized Henry, son of Matilda, as Stephen's heir, allowing Stephen to remain king for the rest of his life. Stephen's reign was seen as a time of disorder and lack of justice.

Patrick Henry’s Speech No man thinks more highly than I do of.docxherbertwilson5999
Patrick Henry’s Speech:
No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the house. But different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely and without reserve. This is no time for ceremony. The question before the house is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at the truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.??Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the numbers of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth, to know the worst, and to provide for it.??I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past. And judging by the past, I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last ten years to justify those hopes with which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves and the House. Is it that insidious smile with which our petition has been lately received???Trust it not, sir; it will prove a snare to your feet. Suffer not yourselves to be betrayed with a kiss. Ask yourselves how this gracious reception of our petition comports with those warlike preparations which cover our waters and darken our land. Are fleets and armies necessary to a work of love and reconciliation? Have we shown ourselves so unwilling to be reconciled that force must be called in to win back our love? Let us not deceive ourselves, sir. These are the implements of war and subjugation; the last arguments to which kings resort.??I ask gentlemen, sir, what means this martial array, if its purpose be not to force us to submission? Can gentlemen assign any other possible motive for it? Has Great Britain any enemy, in this quarter of the world, to call for all this accumulation of navies and armies? No, sir, she has none. They are meant for us: t.

The Glorious Revolution of 1688 saw William of Orange defeat King James II of England and assume the throne. The conflict was rooted in a longstanding family feud between the Protestant supporters of Parliament and the absolute rule of Catholic monarchs like James II. When James II had a Catholic son and heir, it threatened Protestant rule, so William of Orange invaded with support from English nobles and people dissatisfied with James' policies. James fled to France, and William and Mary became the joint monarchs, legitimized by Parliament and beginning a new constitutional monarchy with the Declaration of Rights limiting royal power.

Indian painters evolve from artists who use the motifs of western art to those who look to traditional art
After a brief look at the jubilees celebrated in India the presentation looks at the proposed 1905 Bengal partition and its consequences. Partition is justified by administrative concerns but the partition map effects religious differences and a policy of divide and rule. Muslims in Bengal support the partition but the Indian National Congress opposes it.The reaction is to combine support of native industry with boycott of foreign goods. Opponents divide into moderates who support just these efforts . and extremists who advocate swaraj or self-rule.

Some measures that are considered suppressive of free speech and participation in the system are. overturned. Particularly troublesome is the question whether Indians can sit on juries that try British citizens.
The rise of Indian nationalism in the late 19th century is a combination of rising Indian identity but also Hindu and Muslim identity. At Ayodha they come into conflict. A limited self-governance is offered through the 1892 Councils Act. Education is expanded particularly high education.
The use of caste by the British in terms of their remake of the army. Caste as a census. A look at caste from historic, linguistic and genetic point of view.
The changes that take place in India after the areas administered by the East India Company are assumed by the Crown. The army is restructured in an attempt to prevent future mutinies. A series of famines occurs and question arise about how to prevent or lessen their impact.

In the Carnatic conflicts between these powers offer opportunities for expansion of East India Company influence. In this they come into conflict with the French and European and North American Wars (Austrian Succession, Seven Years) involve an Indian theater.
In Bengal rights granted by a weak Mughal Emperor are abused. A new leader, nawab, of Bengal attempts to check these abuses. He attacks Calcutta but a counterattack at the Battle of Plassey results in a puppet nawab. He too grows weary of abuses and demands and at Buxar is defeated. The Emperor then grants the Company revenue rights in Bengal and neighboring areas.
Financial difficulties result in a British bailout with restrictions. The Company is allowed to send tea to North America with a lower tariff but it is rejected. The American Revolution results.

13 f2015 Science and Invention in Restoration EnglandRobert Ehrlich
A overview of scientific institutions that facilitated the advances, particularly the Royal Society. Some of teh major scientists and some of the less well known scientist who contributed to their work.
The Restoration theater saw the establishment of two patent theater companies, the Duke's Company and the King's Company, who built new theaters like the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane. The theaters featured innovations like proscenium stages and movable scenery. Popular genres included Restoration comedy which featured witty dialogue, adaptations of Shakespeare, and spectacular "machine plays." Acting styles emphasized physicality and emotion over rhetoric. Leading actors like Betterton and Barry became stars, and women began performing professionally. Audiences were diverse but often arrived seeking entertainment and socializing over the plays themselves.
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
2. 1559 Plea of Parliament
There is nothing which with more ardent affection
we beg of God in our daily prayers, than our
happiness hitherto received by your most gratious
government may be perpetuated to the English
nation unto all eternity. Whilst in our mind and
cogitation we cast many ways how this might be
effected, we can find none at all, unless your
Majesty shall reign for ever, or else by Marriage
bring forth children, Heirs both to their Mother's
Vertue and Empire. This is the single, the onely, the
all-comprehending prayer of all Englishmen.
3. Elizabeth Reply
...now that the Publick Care of governing the
Kingdom is laid upon me, to draw upon me also the
Cares of marriage may seem a point of
inconsiderate Folly. Yea, to satisfie you, I have
already joyned myself in marriage to an Husband,
namely, the Kingdom of England...And to me it shall
be a Full satisfaction, both for the memorial of my
Name, and for my Glory also, if when I shall let my
last breath, it be ingraven upon my Marble Tomb,
"Here lieth Elizabeth, which Reigned a Virgin, and
died a Virgin."

Refusal to vote support unless marriage and succession is
addressed
• “I will marry as soon as I can conveniently, if God take not
him away with whom I mind to marry, or myself. . . And I
hope to have children, otherwise I would never marry. “
• “Your petition is to deal in the limitation of the succession.
At this present it is not convenient, nor never shall be
without some peril unto you, and certain danger unto me.
But as soon as there may be a convenient time and that it
may be done with least peril unto you, although never
without great danger unto me, I will deal therein for your
safety and offer it unto you as your prince and head
without requests. For it is monstrous that the feet should
direct the head.”

Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. Oil on panel. 110 x 80 cm. At Waddesdon, The Rothschild Collection. The former attribution to Steven van der Meulen is in question since the discovery of van der Muelen's will (proved 20 January 1564); see Hearn, Karen, ed. Dynasties: Painting in Tudor and Jacobean England 1530-1630. New York: Rizzoli, 1995. ISBN 0-8478-1940-X, p. 94 (van der Meulen), p. 96 (this portrait). Leceister's Coat of Arms is depicted twice, surrounded by (left) the Collar of the Order of St Michael and (right) the Garter. For commentary (including a note that the arms with the Order of St Michael, which Leicester received in 1566, may have been added after the portrait was completed), see Karen Hearn, Dynasties, p. 96.

Amy Dudley was found dead at Cumnor in the evening of 8 September 1560. Dudley was then with the court at Windsor, which was on its return from the progress in Hampshire. All that is known about the immediate circumstances comes from a correspondence of five letters between him and his household officer Thomas Blount of Kidderminster, Worcestershire, between 9 and 15 September. Amy Dudley was alone at the time (although the other women were elsewhere in the house) and no obvious cause of death could be discovered. Blount learned that she had rather emotionally and suddenly ordered her servants to go to a fair at Abingdon, which makes it difficult to credit a murder planned in advance. He worried initially about suicide, but this was denied strongly by her servants. In early 1567 John Appleyard tried to reopen the case, claiming that his half-sister had been murdered, though not by Dudley. He received short shrift from the privy council.
Amy Dudley was buried at St Mary's, Oxford, on 22 September with the full dignities of her rank. Her husband appeared in mourning for the next six months, but his absence from the funeral (although this was within convention) and his failure to erect any memorial to her have been held to his discredit. The main literary source for a murder plot is the famous libel, Leicester's Commonwealth, published in 1584. It claimed that Dudley ‘when his lordship was in full hope to marry her Majesty … did but set her [his wife] aside to the house of his servant Foster of Cumnor by Oxford’. Having failed to poison her, he had her murder arranged by Verney, disguising it as a broken neck from a fall down a flight of stairs (Peck, 81–2, 90–92). In recent years a near contemporary version of this account including the role played by Verney has come to light, possibly written by John Hales, which suggests that it was in circulation immediately after Amy's death (BL, Add. MS 48023, fols. 353r–353v).
In the nineteenth century the murder theory was sustained by the discovery of the contemporary Spanish ambassadorial correspondence. This repeated rumours that Amy Dudley was ill and that Dudley was trying to poison or divorce her as early as the spring of 1559. The only report to survive from the period immediately following her death, dated 11 September 1560, suggests that Cecil believed that Dudley was intending to murder his wife. In 1956 Ian Aird advanced a challenging alternative. On the basis of a reference in a Spanish report of April 1559 to her suffering from a malady in one of her breasts, he suggested that the cause of her death was advanced breast cancer. This theory accounts for a number of the known circumstances, but a serious illness in April 1559 is difficult to reconcile with her extensive travelling in the following months.
The Dudleys' domestic life presents as many mysteries as Amy Dudley's death. There is not a hint of pregnancy or even miscarriage during the ten years of their marriage. It is also clear that after the summer of 1559 Dudley never saw his wife again. He was clearly shocked by her death, but possibly more by the political damage it might cause. The key role was possibly played by Elizabeth, as hinted at in the ‘Journal of matters of state’: ‘when the Lord Rob. went to his wife he wentt all in black, and howe he was commanded to saye that he did nothing with her, when he cam to her, as seldom he did’ (BL, Add. MS 48023, fol. 353r). Although the tradition that Amy Dudley was incarcerated or secluded at Cumnor has been disproved, Elizabeth's favour to Dudley clearly did not extend to his wife.
In 2008 the Tudor historian S. J. Gunn discovered the verdict of the Berkshire coroner's inquest (TNA: PRO, KB 9/1073, art. 80, transcribed and translated in C. Skidmore, Death and the Virgin: Elizabeth, Dudley and the Mysterious Fate of Amy Robsart, 2010, 377–9). The jury inspected Amy Dudley's body at Cumnor on 9 September, but then was progressively adjourned in order to record its verdict before the justices of assize. This finally took place on 1 August 1561. As was standard procedure, the justices then lodged the verdict, sealed by the jurors, with the court of king's bench, but it is filed under 1561 and as a result had eluded earlier searches. The verdict states that alone in a chamber, intending to descend certain stairs, she accidentally (casualiter) fell to the bottom of the stairs, suffering two head wounds (‘dyntes’), and died instantly from a broken neck caused by her own body weight. There was no other mark or wound on her body and she came to her death by misfortune (per infortunam). The head wounds add a new twist, but they are compatible with either accident or foul play.

Eric also made unsuccessful marriage proposals to, among others, Mary, Queen of Scots (1542–87), Renata of Lorraine (1544–1602), Anna of Saxony (1544–77) and Christine of Hesse (1543–1604).
While de Silva was ambassador relations with Spain were stable. His successor was more avid inrejecting her protestant ism and also turned toward relationship with Mary Queen of Scots
Well, the matter whereof they would have made their petition (as I am informed) consisteth in two points: in my marriage, and in the limitations of the succession of the crown, wherein my marriage was first placed, as for manners’ sake. I did send them answer by my council, I would marry (although of mine own disposition I was not inclined thereunto) but that was not accepted nor credited, although spoken by their Prince.
Claiming that she intended to marry in due course she insisted that it would be perilous to name a successor who might then become the focus of plots and factions, and therefore forebade all further discussion

Tuccia was an ancient Roman Vestal Virgin whose chastity was questioned by a spurious accusation. When the piety of holy men and women was doubted by sceptics, the gods could perform miracles to vindicate them. In Tuccia's case she utilized a flat perforated basket to carry water, without the water falling to the ground through the sieve.
Andrea Mantegna, The Vestal Virgin Tuccia, Tempera on poplar, c. 1495-1506, National Gallery London
Tuccia's decision to prove her innocence is recounted:
O Vesta, if I have always brought pure hands to your secret services, make it so now that with this sieve I shall be able to draw water from the Tiber and bring it to Your temple (Vestal Virgin Tuccia in Valerius Maximus 8.1.5 absol).
Tuccia proved her innocence by carrying a sieve full of water from the Tiber to the Temple of Vesta [Augustine, De Civitate Dei, X, 16, in Worsfold, 69].
The Vestal Tuccia was celebrated in Pliny the Elder's Natural History (28: 12) and Petrarch's Triumph of Chastity.
George Gower
The Plimpton "Sieve" Portrait
of Queen Elizabeth I, 1579
Oil on panel
This magnificent portrait by George Gower, Sergeant Painter to the Queen, belongs to the early group of "Sieve" portraits where Elizabeth wears a red gown. The portraits take their name from the sieve she holds in her left hand, recalling the Roman Vestal virgin who carried water in a sieve, thus proving her virginity. In this painting, the globe on the left with the Italian motto "I see everything and much is lacking," appears to refer to Elizabeth's imperial mission as her explorers sailed out to new lands. On the right is her coat of arms with a quotation beneath from Petrarch, indicating that the Virgin Queen is beyond the woes of lovers.
