The Reign of the Virgin Queen

Also known as “The Virgin Queen” Last monarch of the Tudor Dynasty Daughter of Henry and Ann Boleyn Declared illegitimate by her father after her mother was beheaded

She lived with her governess until the age of 9. After her father’s death, she moved in with Catherine Parr (Henry VIII’s last wife) and her new husband Thomas Seymour Seymour began sexual taunts of Elizabeth

Seymour’s sexual advances continued for more than a year. Parr did not stop them … she even participated in them. Elizabeth was only sent away after Parr caught Elizabeth and Seymour embracing. Parr died in childbirth, and Seymour began a systematic campaign to get Elizabeth back. Seymour was arrested by Edward on suspicion of attempting to overthrow the king (by marrying his sister) and beheaded in 1549.

After Edward died, succession to the thone was not given to either Elizabeth or Mary. He declared his thrown to Lady Jane Grey (Henry VIII’s neice) She was overthrown nine days later by Mary, with Elizabeth right at her side. Mary and Elizabeth did not remain allies for long. Mary was Catholic and Elizabeth was Protestant. Mary ordered everyone in the kingdom must attend Catholic mass and Elizabeth had to conform. Mary announced she was going to marry Prince Phillip of Spain… and a Catholic

The people of England looked to Elizabeth to save them from Mary’s religious policies. Elizabeth led Wyatt’s rebellion in 1554, but it was suppressed. Elizabeth was captured and imprisoned in the Tower of London. Ultimately, Elizabeth was spared because of popular demand and lack of evidence. Mary and Phillip made a deal… they agreed to name Elizabeth heir, if they ended up having no children. Mary became ill… and Elizabeth became queen upon her death.

Sought to control the Catholics while reforming the country back to Protestantism. Worked with Parliament Tried to unite the two religions

Immediately after becoming queen, people started speculating on her marriage. She never married. She was in love with Robert Dudley, but he was married. His wife died of a fall down the stairs and many suspected him of killing her for the Queen. Dudley and Elizabeth had a flirtatious affair for years…

Throughout her reign, Elizabeth had many suitors. She never agreed to marry anyone…why? Out of love for Dudley? Because of the abuse of Seymour? For political strategy? Ultimately, the reason is unknown and is probably a combination of all these factors.

Elizabeth’s “virginity” inspired a cult of virgin proper woman. This model was inspiration in literature and in art. Elizabeth always claimed that she was married to her people…

Elizabeth inspired The defeat of the Spanish Armada (Sir Francis Drake) Establishment of the Church of England Elizabethan Poetry, Plays, Art (Shakespeare and Marlowe)

Considered the “Golden Age” in English history England was a wealthy country compared to the other countries in Europe, largely because of the peace in the kingdom (protestants and catholics) Colonizing the New World allowed many to have a romantic ideal of life during this time… the possibilities were endless. “Age of Exploration”- many seafarers set out to explore new territory Education became possible for nobility – men and women- new to Europe Plentiful food and culture- even for the poor
