Hi guys,If you ask me about the importance of Elizabeth's reign in British History, I think that she was an important influence in that period. According to the movie and our classes I could notice this influence in aspects like the religion and the politics.
Also, I could see that although Elizabeth had a protestant faith she felt a great commitment with her people, who could have different religions and beliefs (for example Catholic Religion). For this reason I believe that she didn't want to get married because her commitment was with the people of England. I think that it was one of the causes of her pseudonym of "The Virgin Queen".
In the movie we could see the conflict between England and Spain that Elizabeth had to confront. Spain wanted to take the power of England through of its imperialist politics and Catholic influences, however, Elizabeth and her people could solve the conflict and one invasion of the Spain Navy.
To conclude, I could see how Elizabeth had a influence that help England in its growthin aspects like the expansion of territory, the growth of the economy and an England that began to see outside its frontier in order to progress (Globalization).
See you...
Dear José Andrés,
ReplyDeleteIt is good that you have mentioned that your post was a consequence of discussions in class and from the film you watched.
The point you made about the respect that Elizabeth felt for other religions in England was well achieved.
Was only a matter of politics that led to Spain to fight against England? Or there were others elements that are not mentioned in the film?
You conclusion was well organized and supported the structure you presented before.
Good ideas and well presented arguments.
Interesting ideas!
