Queen Anne (1665-1714)

Queen Anne was born on 6 February 1665, London. Her father was James, Duke of York. She grow up with her aunt and grandmother, in France. Anne and her sister Mary, were Protestant, but on the other hand her father was Catholic. In 1683 she got married to Prince George of Denmark.
In 1685, her father became King. When her father died, Mary, Anne sister´s took the throne. Some years later she died, and finally Anne became Queen.

This is only an introductory paragraph to my presentation.

Queen Elizabeth, a lonely woman.

Elizabeth: The golden age, is a movie that talks about Elizabeth I, the England´s Queen and her reign. This movie shows all the political, religious and problems between Spain and England, and also their power.

Elizabeth, became Queen after the death of her half-sister Mary I in 1558.

When Elizabeth I became Queen of England, some people told her that she should get married in order to have offspring in the throne. She was not interested on that because at that time there was a really chauvinist, and she always preferred to live alone. Finally, she accepted that advice, so she started receiving all her suitors such as the French Duc D'Anjou and King Philip II of Spain, but she was not interested in them.

One day, Elizabeth I met a man named Dudley, and she fall in love with him. Elizabeth I and Dudley started meeting but in secret, because anybody could know that Elizabeth I, the Queen of England, was interested in a simple guy, such as Dudley, a pirate.



In my opinion this movie, shows in a very good way those facts, because when you see it, you can understand all the problems that involved Spain and England in 1585. I think that the director of the movie, Shekhar Kapur, made a really good but hard work when he produced that movie. The setting, the clothes that the characters wore, the landscapes, and principally the actors whom made a really good performance in the movie, all those things made an interesting, beautiful and dramatic movie.


I really enjoy watching Elizabeth : the golden age. I liked the dramatism that was very well represented by the actors, and also how they represent this story.


Just to conclude, I would like to recommend you this movie, because if you are interested in learning more about this period of time and all the problems that appeared there. That is why you can see Elizabeth: the golden age, to understand what happen with Spain and England, and the war between them.


See this movie, because you will not get sorry.

The stonehenge

The first time that I saw The Stonehenge, immediatly I thought about "Isla de pascua and The Moais", because both are very similar. Both are stones which are located "in the middle of the Earth".

At BBC news, I could see a video about the secret of the Stonehenge. This video tells us about what the stonehenge is? and which myths does it have.

When I saw this video I could see that it is like a magic place where you can rest a lot. Archaeologists have said that maybe this place was used to heal ill people. This is a myth, but it will be probably more than a myth, because there are some evidences, such as bodies which where found near to The Stonehenge.

It is really important to mention that, The Stonehenge was nominated in the New seven wonders of the world.
