Good Queen Bess


Elizabeth’s reign is considered for the English people in the top rank of English monarchs because she contributed in many aspects to the English society. One of the contributions of Elizabeth’s reign was the bloom of the literature through the works of a famous writer and my favorite one, William Shakespeare. Also England started expanding its influences in the world thanks to Walter Raleigh and Francis Drake, who was Elizabeth’s advisor.


Also the religion was a controversial issue during Elizabeth’s reign because as she did not want to get married with a man; she just wanted to get married with her people of England, Catholicism was not her favorite religion, so that is way it seems to me that she shared more ideals with protestants than catholic people.


This problem with the religion is one of the reasons there was a dispute between England and Spain, because this last country was a very catholic one and it did not accepted England to reject this religion. Another reason was the English piracy that affected Spain and the explorations in the new world that irritated Philip II, who decided to start the war.


As Elizabeth and her people won the war, years of piece and expansion arrived, that is why she is fondly remembered by the English people.

The introductory sentence was quite appealing. You knew how to
state your main thesis.
The supporting paragraphs are well achieved. You conveyed your
message completely. It was very easy to follow your ideas and
explanations. You presented the main elements included in the film
such as, religion, expansion, beliefs, etc.
The use of language was quite well. I can see that you understand
the whole picture of what you are seeing in class.
The conclusion was also well achieved; you presented your own
understanding of the importance of Elizabeths reign in the British
history.
Very interesting work, just try to pay attention to some spelling
mistakes you have.
It was a great and interesting post.
Kind regards,
Oscar Luna.
