“When I am dead and opened, you shall find calais lying in my heart.” ( Mary T) This is a famous quote from Mary Tudor. In this quote she is telling the world how she is mean and cold hearted. You can tell by her own words she is vengeful and full of hate. Mary Tudor was born on February 18th, 1516 at the Palace Of Placentia, Greenwich. Mary Tudor's parents are Henry VIII of England and Catherine of Aragon. Mary was the only child that grew up to be an adult of Henry VIII and Catherine. Mary’s famous nickname was “ Bloody Mary.” Mary’s education was very little but she was tutored by her mother and scholars, she excelled in music and language.

Mary was some what happy in different places, times, and who she was with. Mary was a very miserable queen. Not a lot of people like how she ran the palace. With all the hate on her she was not always happy. I would say her personality is, she really does care about people think. Mary’s likes and dislikes, her dislikes were her half-sister, half-brother, and predecessor. Mary's likes were having a lot of free time. Which is meaning she did not have kids or a husband. Although that did change when she was worried about not have children to be the next queen when she died. Mary’s challenges in life were being queen and having to deal with all the hate from all the town people. These were a big challenges, but I do really think she overcame them. I think this because in many articles I read about Mary Tudor, it said that at first with all her struggles her life was really hard. Than, after that all kept happening she got used to it and it was just okay to her after a long time of the hateful and critical experience …show more content…

Also, Mary is remembered for attempting to reverse the Reformation and return England to Catholicism. Some memorable qualities about Mary are she was queen, she wanted to kill any person she had conflicted with, and getting the nickname Bloody Mary. How one should behave around this person, I feel like if someone was with her and talked to her They should be calm, not loud, do what she says. Mary is a very non-loveable person. So, when talking to her don’t be very crazy. Also, remember she is Bloody Mary. The reason why I think that you should talk and act this way around Mary. Is because she is very Dangerous. She wants what she wants. And will not always gets it so she gets mad. And that is why not a lot of people like

    The 17th century was a chaotic time period in England. England saw a transition in their nation’s religion during the reign of different monarchs. Before the start of the 17th century, England was under a Roman Catholic monarch with Queen Mary. Mary attempted to turn the Church of England into a Catholic Church and in the process earned the name “Bloody Mary”. She earned this name through her executions of many Protestants in England. However once Mary was unsuccessful in creating a Catholic England and was no longer the monarch, the Church went back to a Protestant Church. With the church now being Protestant, the Catholic minority in England began to become upset with the church and even plotted to make the church Catholic again through violence.

    In 1553, Mary I became the Queen of England. Mary married King Philip of Spain in order to secure Catholicism in England. Elizabeth unwillingly became the leader of Mary’s opposition, the British Protestants of the time. She attempted to force her younger sister, Elizabeth, into attending Catholic mass in order to set an example for her followers. Elizabeth was raised Protestant and didn’t want to convert, so she avoided mass by complaining of stomach aches.

    “She was the only surviving child of King James V Of Scotland, who died when she was at the age of 6 days old making her fall in line to throne (“Mary I” 1 Britannica).” “At the age of 5 her mother saw it fit to send Mary to France, there she was brought up at the court of King Henry II. “Mary’s education was not neglected, and she was taught Latin, Italian, Spanish, and some Greek. French now became her first language, and indeed in every other way Mary grew into a Frenchwoman rather than a Scot” (“Mary” 2 Britannica). Even though she wasn’t with her Parents and with an Uncle she still got an amazing education. Many times royal families tend to fight against one another in fear the other might still the throne. Queen Mary was a Scott but because of the way she was raised she became a French-woman, which I find interesting. All from how her uncle raised her instead of her mother raising her. “Her remarkable beauty, with her tall, slender figure, her red-gold hair and amber-coloured eyes, and her taste for music and poetry, Mary summed up the contemporary ideal of the Renaissance princess at the time of her marriage to Francis, eldest son of Henry and Catherine, in April 1558. Although it was a political match aimed at the union of France and Scotland, Mary was sincerely ...

    Gender was the leading cause of distress in the 1500’s: King Henry VIII wanted nothing more than to have a son, yet was “cursed” with the legacy of a frail son, whom died before the age of 18 and two daughters, one of whom broke every convention of her gender. Queen Elizabeth I never married nor had children, yet can be considered one of England’s most successful monarchs. By choosing King James VI of Scotland as her heir, unbeknownst to her, she created the line that leads to the modern Queen of England, Elizabeth II. The question posed is then, how did Elizabeth I’s gender affect her rule?
