Holy shoot that girl`s mind is like some kind of super computer. I will never be able to be like that. Super forgiving of her father for killing her mother too (Or maybe she is just hoping that her dad will let her become Queen.). "Matchless and most kind father". Need I say more ?
Isn't it ironic how Anne Boleyn was hated and for the most part Elizabeth was loved? I think this is why Anne Boleyn is so amazing. Anne Boleyn means a great deal to me.
Raising Elizabeth in the crucible of parental neglect and emotional starvation, while enriching her mind and sense of self-sufficiency, prepared her not only for the throne but also imho, for the barrage of abuse she suffered as a teenager. She must have felt incredibly alone. No wonder she opted to stay that way.
The whore, the bastard, Henry's stuff..what made these men soooooo angry? I mean, it's one thing to have women issues, but geez. What a bunch of creeps. Unfortunately, this legacy lives on.
I wonder if Henry VIII ever came to realize what a mistake he made in killing her mother. When he looked at Elizabeth I hope he thought of Anne Boleyn and regretted having her killed. If Anne Boleyn had lived they could have had more brilliant children and maybe the coveted son he wanted. Its too bad he never got to see Elizabeth become the great Queen she became. I hope he regretted the rest.
@PaulineGeorge26 This is the romantic view of circumstances from todays social values. It is unlikey that he ever cared or gave Anne a second thought after her death.
@barbiedoll811 I don't think that's entirely true either. That locket ring is proof of that. However, I think Elizabeth was more focused on her own life and trying to survive during her sister's reign. If anything, Elizabeth never forgot her mother, never completley blocked Anne Boleyn from her memory. I think she just had the attitiude of the fact that her mother was gone, and there was nothing that she, or anybody else could do about it.
@scorpianofthesun Yes, and she also saw what happened to people who fought the throne, on any issue at all. It was a survival trait to be silent on matters she could not change, and by the time she was an adult, it was ingrained.
Edward and Elizabeth were good friends as indicated by letters they wrote to each other. Both were educated in protestant ways and found it difficult to deal with their elder sister Mary.
@barbiedoll811 Im sure Elizabeth also had doubts about the negative controversy around her mother. i don't think she really believed all the accusations made against her.
Mary Boleyn, Elizabeth's aunt on her mom's side died when she was 10. Would've been interesting if Elizabeth had met her. Mary Boleyn lived out the rest of her life happily away from court. She would've had mixed feeling seeing and talking to her niece if it happened,she would've seen Anne in her eyes.
When Elizabeth was 6 she was shown naked to the French ambassadors! She was offered as a bride to one of their princes and they needed to be sure the girl had no blemishes or unsightly spots on her. Must've been scary and humiliating for a sensitive child. Ever sine the Seymour scandal, she hardly trusted anyone, especially men.
@SophieGizzy that picture was made like that. Catherine Parr posed for the picture, but, they put Jane's head on, as Henry thought of Jane as his "One true Queen". OK?!
@avastacia Because Catherine Parr was her stepmother, when Thomas Seymour married her that made him Elizabeth's stepfather even if they were not related by blood.
@cXcarolayXc Like Anne (Natalie Dormer) said to Henry in the last episode of "The Tudors" "Though she is like me in so many ways, she is not intemperant as I was . . ."
Elizabeth's life wasn't nearly as mentally and emotionally crushing as Mary's was...but that's not to say that Elizabeth's life wasn't hard; just less so than Mary's.
@cXcarolayXc - Elizabeth was young and ignorant when she was proclaimed a bastard while Mary was not - thus making the blow to Mary's mentality and pride ever more crushing. Also, throughout her life Elizabeth had support whereas Mary did had next to none. I'm not here to argue with you, it's just my opinion and I can see that ours differ greatly. I respect that.
Elizabeth handwrote what looks to be 200 pages of multilingual prose? Why don't they publish that book and show it to other 12 year olds and say, "Check it out. Someone your age did this. Bet ya feel stupid right about now."
@RLviddy yeah. when i was 12, i read about her, and i was like `dammit, i am the top in my class and top in my level, but i can barely translate a composition from english to chinese. she translated frikkin Cicero!'
@RLviddy yeah. when i was 12, i read about her, and i was like `dammit, i am the top in my class and top in my level, but i can barely translate a sentence from english to chinese. she translated frikkin Cicero!'
her mother was a English girl who went to the french court and became french and Elizabeth was a french girl (cause that was her upbringing being fluent in french) who went to the English court and became English very odd how life can go
henry's was the ultimate traitor to his woman but yet he killed ppl for just that when he commited treason by disowning his daughters i've been betrayed by my boyfriends but one thing they wouldn't do is disown my babies
I read that Catherine Parr was Henry's only wife and Queen, and Boylen was his long-time mistress; And the paintings of other women weren't "women" but his daughters, and Mary was married off to be Queen of Scotland, also a daughter, and Boylen was mother to none. Parr was mother to Elizabeth, and Elizabeth set the wheels of Democracy in motion and preserved Great Britian, at the expense of ending the Tudor Bloodline. No beheadings involved.
on Elizabeths death bed, a ring fell from her finger and opend to show a tiny portrait of her mother. she seemed to have airbrushed her death but always thought of her when she looked at her hand! Elizabeth died from make up poisening because make up was very thick + harsh in those days and seeped into her blood stream... bet you didnt know that!!!
That's why he said 'seemed' I think Elizabeth did the smartest thing possible in her situation, she didn't try to defend her mother because Henry seemed to have no problem abusing the women in his life that he was supposed to protect.
She would be a minor. In todays society, if a 14 year old girl consented to sex it is still considered abuse. There is now dispute about the picture in the ring.
Some believe it is Elizabeth of York, Henry VIII's mother. I guess we will never know.
Stepfather sexually abused her? No one knows whether it was her choice or not...he can't say that it was definitely sexual abuse - makes it sound like we know for sure what went on in the bedroom...
He mentions only a few, but Elizabeth (by 1578) could speak, read and write in English, Latin, Greek, Spanish, French, Italian, Scots and Flemish.
"Shee speaketh Greeke, Latine, Italian, French, Spanish, Scots [Scozese], Flemish and English; Al these tongues shee speaketh very wel, and eloquent."
If Elizabeth did have an attraction to Seymour that does not excuse his behaviour. She after all was a young teenage girl who had had a unhappy, traumatic childhood. She had lost the father who she had worshipped but had ignored her for most of her life. Her step father took advantage of the crush she had on him for his own sexual and political ends.
Henry is such a dick for doing that to both his daughters. Whatever the relationship he had with mothers shouldn't have let cloud his judgment on the children. Be mad at the mother if you must but don't behave the same way to the child because it's not their fault.
@67hope The battle and dislike between Anne Boleyn and Katherine of Aragon was carried on to their daughters. Mary felt the same way about Elizabeth as her mom did to Anne. It would've been impossible for her not to. Also Anne forced mary to work as a maid in Elizabeth's nursery and Anne was quite cruel to her too. Mary alwys carried grudges against Anne and Elizabeth when she got older.
@HistoryLover1550 i think anne's cruelness towards mary is greatly exaggerated. anne did try to make amends with mary but mary refused to recognize anne as queen. it was henry who appointed mary as a lady-in-waiting to elizabeth. it was henry who appointed all of elizabeth's maids and it was he who appointed lady bryant as elizabeth's governess
@dstewart2394 Anne had Marys ears regularly boxed (slapped), by her ladys if she didn't call Elizabeth princess or her Queen (just one example). Anne was not a nice step mother an cruel to Mary But she was a fantastic mother to her own Child Elizabeth, I do agree about Henry he was a bad father as well as King. All his Wifes were great Queens in their own right, and his children suffered because of their father. Ultimatly though it was the people who suffered, Catholics/Protestants inTudor times
@100percentbabeLOL okay i am really confused I am suppose to write an essay on this but I don't get it at all! And you seem to understand some of it. so could you please help me out? Was she beaten by her father??? I am only 13 and do not understand one bit of this! Did her mother really do that stuff. And wait is Mary her step sister or half sister?? And was henry really that bad of a dad????
@AeropostalFreak2016 If girls didn't obey their fathers in those days yes they would get punished, Edward had a whipping boy just like Henry VII when he was a child. This whipping boy as they were called would take any punishiment including the cane & beatings for Any wrong behavouir of the prince (Edward). Henry VII was good educator of all his children including Mary & Elizabeth, which was unusual for girls at the time they had the best Tutors. However he was cruel to both Mary Elizabeth.Cont-
@100percentbabeLOL Which stuff?, boxing of the ears yes. Ann hated Mary & likewise, Mary was seperated & NEVER saw her mother for the last six years of her mothers life because of Henry VII. Katherine of Aragon would not denounce her marriage as invalid as Henry VII wanted because that would declare Mary as a Barstard & lose Mary her right to the throne. After Katherine died Mary was forced to sign a document declaring her parents marriage invalid, he did the same to Elizabeth, feel free Msg me
Anne was so intelligent becuase her mother was the same way. I hate how here they make it seem like Elizabeth just completely forgot about mother. And Henry did not want anything to do with her, or Mary. He's an ass. Catherine and Anne were both such strong powerful woman. any man today would their hearts completely to woman of such greatness and Henry treated them like crap. The rest of Henry's wives after these two were just dull and not as bright as Catherine and Anne. They all fell flat.
You mean Elizabeth was so intelligent.. lol.Catherine and Anne were the best. True feminists. I'm not one to take sides, both had terrible ends. Today for some reason being a bastard doesn't seem to be a problem. I mean, why do people fuss over whether she was illegitimate or not.. Anne and Henry got married under "their new religion" - after people got divorced, the kids never should have been declared "illegit" - that's stupid. She ruled whether or not she was legit.. it's done. History.
not all henry's kids were declared illegitimate- only elizabeth and that was done after her mother was beheaded. henry was truly a cruel father. he declared elizabeth as an illegitimate child b/c she was conceived due to a relationship b/w henry and anne before the marriage and that fact gave him a chance to disinherit elizabeth, but later it all meant nothing, as u said, simply b/c mary on her deathbed signed a document declaring elizabeth as the next ruling monarch
that's true also i believe i read once in a book abt henry's last wife Katherine Parr that henry was madly in love with anne, as an old sick man he began talking to katherine parr abt her and regreting the fact that he had beheaded her
my teacher would make us translate 1 or 2 paragraphs from Latin into English and she would let us use the Latin-English dictionary. next class she would make us translate the English translation back into Latin, but we could not use the Latin-English dictionary.

I love Elizabeth I think she was an amazing queen and quite a complex person everytime i see that film elizabeth it makes me want to scream nooooo thats not right the director has no clue about this womans life he made her seem weak , and the film was not historically accurate why can't they just make a film and do her life and reign justice.
Mary was given that nickname because she killed a lot of Protestants, as she wanted to convert England again into Catholicism, ruled by the Roman Church. Her father, Henry VIII, had earlier created the Protestant Church in England, an institution separated from the Pope of Rome, in order to get the divorce from Catherine of Aragon, and be able to marry Anne Boleyn, after Catherine could not give him a boy to success the throne. Catherine of Aragon was deeply Catholic and Mary's mother.
Contrary to popular beleif Elizabeth had powerful and loyal allies.They made certain Elizabeth would get her birth right.Mary was an evil person and more like her father and with so much Hatred in her heart she happily killed those whom opposed the Catholic .But Elizabeth was very much like her mother.She had an open mind on the right's of her subjects choose the chose their own faith.
Elizabeth was 2 years and 8 months old when her mother died. Given that she hadn't lived with her mother and hadn't even seen her often, it's unlikely that she grew up with any clear memories of her.
its genetic-women can only produce X chromosomed eggs; men can make X or Y chromosomed sperm. X or Y will pair up with the egg's X, to make XX (female), or XY (male). there is theoretically a 1:1 ratio for male and female (per punett's square).
so yeah, its henry's fault; he should have hung himself rather than kill Anne XD
note that elisabeth's new tutor states elisabeth "is exempt from female weakness". women were not seen as mens's equal back then, and men are free from flaws...thats why women bear the brunt of abuse. plus henry was a king, so he is untouchable and blameless.

huh?? elizabeth was sexually abused by that guy>?? i though they both had a thing for each other! hm...okay..

If Elizabeth did have an attraction to Seymour that does not excuse his behaviour. She after all was a young teenage girl who had had a unhappy, traumatic childhood. She had lost the father who she had worshipped but had ignored her for most of her life. Her step father took advantage of the crush she had on him for his own sexual and political ends.

Henry is such a dick for doing that to both his daughters. Whatever the relationship he had with mothers shouldn't have let cloud his judgment on the children. Be mad at the mother if you must but don't behave the same way to the child because it's not their fault.

@67hope The battle and dislike between Anne Boleyn and Katherine of Aragon was carried on to their daughters. Mary felt the same way about Elizabeth as her mom did to Anne. It would've been impossible for her not to. Also Anne forced mary to work as a maid in Elizabeth's nursery and Anne was quite cruel to her too. Mary alwys carried grudges against Anne and Elizabeth when she got older.
HistoryLover1550 1 year ago
@HistoryLover1550 i think anne's cruelness towards mary is greatly exaggerated. anne did try to make amends with mary but mary refused to recognize anne as queen. it was henry who appointed mary as a lady-in-waiting to elizabeth. it was henry who appointed all of elizabeth's maids and it was he who appointed lady bryant as elizabeth's governess

@dstewart2394 You've a point there, thanks for raising this fact.
HistoryLover1550 1 year ago
@dstewart2394 Anne had Marys ears regularly boxed (slapped), by her ladys if she didn't call Elizabeth princess or her Queen (just one example). Anne was not a nice step mother an cruel to Mary But she was a fantastic mother to her own Child Elizabeth, I do agree about Henry he was a bad father as well as King. All his Wifes were great Queens in their own right, and his children suffered because of their father. Ultimatly though it was the people who suffered, Catholics/Protestants inTudor times

@AeropostalFreak2016 If girls didn't obey their fathers in those days yes they would get punished, Edward had a whipping boy just like Henry VII when he was a child. This whipping boy as they were called would take any punishiment including the cane & beatings for Any wrong behavouir of the prince (Edward). Henry VII was good educator of all his children including Mary & Elizabeth, which was unusual for girls at the time they had the best Tutors. However he was cruel to both Mary Elizabeth.Cont-
100percentbabeLOL 9 months ago
@100percentbabeLOL Which stuff?, boxing of the ears yes. Ann hated Mary & likewise, Mary was seperated & NEVER saw her mother for the last six years of her mothers life because of Henry VII. Katherine of Aragon would not denounce her marriage as invalid as Henry VII wanted because that would declare Mary as a Barstard & lose Mary her right to the throne. After Katherine died Mary was forced to sign a document declaring her parents marriage invalid, he did the same to Elizabeth, feel free Msg me

Anne was so intelligent becuase her mother was the same way. I hate how here they make it seem like Elizabeth just completely forgot about mother. And Henry did not want anything to do with her, or Mary. He's an ass. Catherine and Anne were both such strong powerful woman. any man today would their hearts completely to woman of such greatness and Henry treated them like crap. The rest of Henry's wives after these two were just dull and not as bright as Catherine and Anne. They all fell flat.
ConstanceWest 2 years ago 12
You mean Elizabeth was so intelligent.. lol.Catherine and Anne were the best. True feminists. I'm not one to take sides, both had terrible ends. Today for some reason being a bastard doesn't seem to be a problem. I mean, why do people fuss over whether she was illegitimate or not.. Anne and Henry got married under "their new religion" - after people got divorced, the kids never should have been declared "illegit" - that's stupid. She ruled whether or not she was legit.. it's done. History.
lovelystrings 2 years ago 4
not all henry's kids were declared illegitimate- only elizabeth and that was done after her mother was beheaded. henry was truly a cruel father. he declared elizabeth as an illegitimate child b/c she was conceived due to a relationship b/w henry and anne before the marriage and that fact gave him a chance to disinherit elizabeth, but later it all meant nothing, as u said, simply b/c mary on her deathbed signed a document declaring elizabeth as the next ruling monarch

They fell flat because they were mindful of keeping their heads. Except for Katherine Howard, she was young and loose.

that's true also i believe i read once in a book abt henry's last wife Katherine Parr that henry was madly in love with anne, as an old sick man he began talking to katherine parr abt her and regreting the fact that he had beheaded her

in high school i took Latin and my teacher used the double translation method.
it really is one of the most difficult things to do.
i remember almost everything i was taught, so i guess it works.

What is the double translation method? How does it work? And what are its advantages and disadvantages? Thank-you!
eltigreoso 2 years ago
my teacher would make us translate 1 or 2 paragraphs from Latin into English and she would let us use the Latin-English dictionary. next class she would make us translate the English translation back into Latin, but we could not use the Latin-English dictionary.
it takes FOREVER, but really helps you learn the vocabulary.

I don't get why people started the Bloody Mary thing. I mean can someone tell me?
momina103 2 years ago
Mary was given that nickname because she killed a lot of Protestants, as she wanted to convert England again into Catholicism, ruled by the Roman Church. Her father, Henry VIII, had earlier created the Protestant Church in England, an institution separated from the Pope of Rome, in order to get the divorce from Catherine of Aragon, and be able to marry Anne Boleyn, after Catherine could not give him a boy to success the throne. Catherine of Aragon was deeply Catholic and Mary's mother.
sweetcoffee83 2 years ago 3
Contrary to popular beleif Elizabeth had powerful and loyal allies.They made certain Elizabeth would get her birth right.Mary was an evil person and more like her father and with so much Hatred in her heart she happily killed those whom opposed the Catholic .But Elizabeth was very much like her mother.She had an open mind on the right's of her subjects choose the chose their own faith.
Meriale46 2 years ago 5
Elizabeth was 2 years and 8 months old when her mother died. Given that she hadn't lived with her mother and hadn't even seen her often, it's unlikely that she grew up with any clear memories of her.

people say man decide the gender of birth. so its actually the fathers fault.

more than just "people say..." it is a law of genetics...
skaw12345 2 years ago 11
its genetic-women can only produce X chromosomed eggs; men can make X or Y chromosomed sperm. X or Y will pair up with the egg's X, to make XX (female), or XY (male). there is theoretically a 1:1 ratio for male and female (per punett's square).
so yeah, its henry's fault; he should have hung himself rather than kill Anne XD

but to be fair, its 50/50-it was a probability messup that led to the misfortune on the women, not the women themselves,
so yeah, its still technically Henry's fault-he can't wriggle out of this one :P
Albukhshi 2 years ago
note that elisabeth's new tutor states elisabeth "is exempt from female weakness". women were not seen as mens's equal back then, and men are free from flaws...thats why women bear the brunt of abuse. plus henry was a king, so he is untouchable and blameless.
