Treason Q

My Question:
In Shakespearian England women seem to have almost no rights when it comes to almost anything. For example, Kit must disguise herself as a boy to perform in the plays. Why do you think that men were considered better than woman at this time?

Original: Why would the Spanish-backed Fifth Column of Sir Philip Morton want to install a new Spanish-Friendly Government by assassinating Queen Elizabeth.

How was the Elizabethan Era, referred as a "Great English Renaissance" really that great? Oppressive government policies like the counter-productive Enclosure Act which sent thousands into poverty, could potentially cause rebellion, would the Renaissance be really called a renaissance or an age of oppression?

Is the Anglo-Spanish War still occuring? If so then... (refer to question 1)

How does the arts from the past connect with current events during that time? How can it connect with current events in our world today?

  1. Good job Sam! You finally got around to posting this.
    I just wanted to point out that you were supposed to fix up five questions, not four. As well, I do not understand some of the changes; a few seemed quite minimal. Could you explain your corrections?
    I appreciate that you finally posted this blog entry. Keep it up!

  2. This is pretty good as a post, for as I have not yet posted. I have written this out, though and I hope I can post it after this comment. I have to agree to Matthew as the changes were pretty minor. I still think it is better than mine because i have not posted yet. Good job!

  3. Commenting is getting a little better - remembering the "constructive sandwich" and the tone / word choice is getting better. We will continue to work on this in class.
