How was Elizabeth’s power in the North strengthened? In 1570 Pope Pius V excommunicated Elizabeth I. This is the worst punishment the Catholic church could issue. It means that Elizabeth and all her population re condemned to hell. It also means that all her Catholic population now owe their loyalty to the Catholic church and can now revolt against her without fear of condemnation. This means that the risk of rebellion is now much higher, as her Catholic subjects could rise up and replace her with Mary Queen of Scots – who many Catholics saw as the legitimate queen – and also invited foreign Catholic powers, such as Spain and France, could also get involved to help bring England back to he Catholic Church. She is now in great danger. How did Elizabeth’s treatment of Catholics change? Pope Pius V hoped the excommunication would stir What did Pope Pius V hope the excommunication up rebellions and he had originally planned that it would do? would coincide with (happen at the same time as) the Northern Rebellion of 1569 but it was issued late. The Northern Rebellion occurred in 1569, after Why did the Northern Rebellion of 1569 take place? Elizabeth refused to allow the Duke of Norfolk to marry Mary, Queen of Scots, who was a Catholic. Two northern Catholic nobles were inspired to lead a rebellion against Elizabeth, aiming to replace her with Mary, Queen of Scots. In 1571, an Italian called Ridolfi, along with the Duke What did the Ridolfi Plot aim to do? of Norfolk, planned a rebellion to coincide with an invasion from the Netherlands. Elizabeth would be murdered and be replaced with Mary, Queen of Scots, who would then marry Norfolk. The plot was exposed before it could be carried out and Norfolk was executed in 1572. Through plots such as these, Elizabeth realised that What were the consequences of plots against she could not rely on her Catholic subjects to remain Elizabeth? loyal. Instead, new laws were introduced to try and disrupt Catholic activities and show that challenges to the queen’s rule would not be tolerated. In 1581, a law was passed that made attending a What laws did Elizabeth introduce in 1581? Catholic mass treason and greater fines were introduced for those who refused to go to Protestant church services. These rose to around £20, which was a lot of money, even for more wealthy people. Sir Francis Throckmorton led a plot in 1583, also What was the Throckmorton plot of 1583? planning to replace Elizabeth with Mary, Queen of Scots. This would be followed by an invasion by the French Catholic, Henry, Duke of Guise, and an uprising of English Catholics. When this plot was discovered, Throckmorton was executed and Mary, Queen of Scots was placed under an even closer guard. In 1585, Elizabeth passed another act, which made it What law did Elizabeth pass in 1585? treason to have a Catholic priest in your home. Priests were executed, and noble Catholic families faced the loss of their lands and wealth if their loyalty to the queen was in doubt. The Babington Plot of 1586 was another attempt to How did Elizabeth respond to the Babington Plot? murder Elizabeth and place Mary, Queen of Scots on the throne. Mary was tried and executed when it was discovered that she had known about and agreed with the plot all along. Catholics across Europe were outraged by Elizabeth’s execution of Mary, Queen of Scots and Elizabeth’s execution of Mary, Queen of Scots, triggered Spain to launch the Spanish Armada. This was a huge fleet of 130 armed ships that intended to sail to England and throw Elizabeth off the throne. In 1593, Elizabeth passed a law that said Catholics What restriction was placed on Catholics in 1593? could not travel more than five miles from their home.

To be successful you complete two paragraphs. Here is some help for your first paragraph, with sentence starters to help you plan your first paragraph.

Mary, Queen of Scots Mary Queen of Scots The French King’s death in 1560 was a turning point in Why did Mary have to flee Scotland? Mary’s life. The Catholic Queen returned to Scotland to find the Protestant faith had become more and more popular. Mary became increasingly unpopular and after it was suggested that she had been involved in the murder of her second husband, Lord Darnley, she was forced to flee to England in 1568. She was now at Elizabeth’s mercy.

  • Mary Stuart and Elizabeth 1 Notes for a CE Source Question Introduction
    Mary Stuart and Elizabeth 1 Notes for a CE Source Question Introduction Mary Queen of Scots (1542-1587) Mary was the daughter of James V of Scotland and Mary of Guise. She became Queen of Scotland when she was six days old after her father died at the Battle of Solway Moss. A marriage was arranged between Mary and Edward, only son of Henry VIII but was broken when the Scots decided they preferred an alliance with France. Mary spent a happy childhood in France and in 1558 married Francis, heir to the French throne. They became king and queen of France in 1559. Francis died in 1560 of an ear infection and Mary returned to Scotland a widow in 1561. During Mary's absence, Scotland had become a Protestant country. The Protestants did not want Mary, a Catholic and their official queen, to have any influence. In 1565 Mary married her cousin and heir to the English throne, Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley. The marriage was not a happy one. Darnley was jealous of Mary's close friendship with her secretary, David Rizzio and in March 1566 had him murdered in front of Mary who was six months pregnant with the future James VI and I. Darnley made many enemies among the Scottish nobles and in 1567 his house was blown up. Darnley's body was found outside in the garden, he had been strangled. Three months later Mary married the chief suspect in Darnley’s murder, the Earl of Bothwell. The people of Scotland were outraged and turned against her.

    UNTIMELY DEATHS IN RENAISSANCE DRAMA UNTIMELY DEATHS IN RENAISSANCE DRAMA: SHAKESPEARE, MIDDLETON, MARLOWE By ANDREW GRIFFIN, M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University ©Copyright by Andrew Griffin, July 2008 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2008) McMaster University (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Untimely Deaths in Renaissance Drama: Shakespeare, Middleton, Marlowe AUTHOR: Andrew Griffin, M.A. (McMaster University), B.A. (Queen's University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Helen Ostovich NUMBER OF PAGES: vi+ 242 ii Abstract In this dissertation, I read several early modem plays - Shakespeare's Richard II, Middleton's A Chaste Maid in Cheapside, and Marlowe's Dido, Queene ofCarthage ­ alongside a variety of early modem historiographical works. I pair drama and historiography in order to negotiate the question of early modem untimely deaths. Rather than determining once and for all what it meant to die an untimely death in early modem England, I argue here that one answer to this question requires an understanding of the imagined relationship between individuals and the broader unfolding of history by which they were imagined to be shaped, which they were imagined to shape, or from which they imagined to be alienated. I assume here that drama-particularly historically-minded drama - is an ideal object to consider when approaching such vexed questions, and I also assume that the problematic of untimely deaths provides a framework in which to ask about the historico-culturally specific relationships that were imagined to obtain between subjects and history. While it is critically commonplace to assert that early modem drama often stages the so-called "modem" subject, I argue here that early modem visions of the subject are often closely linked to visions of that subject's place in the world, particularly in the world that is recorded by historiographers as a world within and of history.

Substantial archival sources are analysed to evaluate the concepts of female political agency discussed in scholarly literature, including women’s roles in politics, within families, in networks and as part of the court patronage system. A case study methodology is used to examine the lives and careers of specific aristocratic women in three spheres of court politics – the politics of female agency, the politics of family and faction, and the politics of favour. The first case study looks at Elizabeth’s long-serving lady-in-waiting, Anne Dudley, Countess of Warwick, and demonstrates that female political agents harnessed multiple sources of agency to exercise power at court on behalf of dense patronage networks.

    University of Alberta Travel Compilations in Sixteenth-Century England: Eden and Ramusio as Hakluyt’s Generic Precursors by Robert Imes A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Department of English and Film Studies ©Robert Imes Spring 2012 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

For Grant and Ruth Imes Abstract Scholarship on Richard Hakluyt’s compilations of travel writing regularly refers to his main literary predecessors: Richard Eden and Giovanni Battista Ramusio. However, such scholarship rarely engages in a sustained comparison of Hakluyt’s, Eden’s, and Ramusio’s work. In George Bruner Parks’ literary history Richard Hakluyt and the English Voyages, for example, Parks notes that Eden was Hakluyt’s “forerunner,” and that Hakluyt’s books “outdistanced” Eden’s, yet Parks does not specify the connections between the two.1 Similarly, in a section on Hakluyt’s Italian influences from his recent study Richard Hakluyt: A Guide to His Books, Anthony Payne writes that Ramusio was Hakluyt’s “most notable” early literary influence, but Payne’s further association of their work is cursory and ambiguous.2 In this thesis, I continue the discussion of Parks, Payne, and other scholars about the bonds of influence and continuity shared by Eden, Ramusio, and Hakluyt.
