The Context of Shakespearean Drama

The Context of Shakespearean Drama

In Shakespeare's time, the Renaissance was a time of learning, ideas were revived from Rome and classical Greece and spread across Europe. Since there were lots of new ideas, lots of talented artists and creators were born, for example, Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, Donatello and of course Shakespeare. The reason Shakespeare became so popular was because there was a big surge in poems and entertainment such as plays and Shakespeare was a really good writer of plays and poems. 

Queen Elizabeth I became the Queen in 1558 6 years before Shakespeare was born so a lot of his plays and poems were influenced by this. This was mainly to look good to the higher beings because back then being King or Queen was second to God, so a big deal. But also he had to appeal to the groundlings too so he added some humour to appeal to all so everyone would like and enjoy his plays. Religion was also a big factor in his writing because England was a Catholic country until 1533 when Henry VIII broke away from the church because he couldn't divorce his wife. Henry then went on to create a protestant church. After a while of back and forth with Catholics and Protestants it became split so Shakespeare related to this debate in some of his plays.

In space

In space
“In space it is hard to navigate and to live in but we make it
possible because we have to”. 
“Let me give you a recap. a asteroid hit and the planet was
slowing getting destroyed and we had to move but we don’t
have the tech to get to Mars yet. we're nearly there and we
saw another asteroid so we just had to move to space. so we
started to do what what we started and it’s going to be harder
than it was on earth because we don't have that much
materials”.
“Day 48 we nearly finished the tech and I am so Excited
because I see something new other than this hallway.

There were two guys in the unknown where looking for

the tunnel

The tunnel
It's 28 July 1914 the war has started and we have already lost 47 people. What has happened to the world as I'm in battle I'm making sure I stay alive.

I don't think that I'm going to stay alive that long and what I'm
talking about but I might stop talking like that.

When we get to go to sleep we go underground goundand
we go through this long tunnel and at the end there is a door
and then when you go through there are beds and gardens
which is a good thing.

The war was tough but in the end we did it.

The end.

The Story of King Minos - By Jayden

The Story of King Minos - By Jayden

King Minos was the King of Crete. One day King Minos said to Poseidon (god of sea) if you let my people get home safe I will sacrifice my best bull. The next day the people got home safe and he sacrificed his worst bull. Poseidon was mad, very mad. Later King Minos wife had a baby it had a man's body and a bull's head, it had a habit of eating people it was called the Minotaur.

King Minos asked Daedalus to make a  maze a maze so complicated no one could get out of it  The King put the Minotaur in it now it was a  new death-trap, when people came they get   eaten alive. Daedalus was not happy for it to be used that way. He wanted to leave the island with his son they were going to fly away no one had flown away before.

They collected feathers Daedalus said to his son “don't fly too high but don't fly low” they found a eagle they took its feathers then he said we have enough feathers son. When everyone was asleep they strapped the wings on when they flew off. However, Icarus soon forgot what dad said and flew so high. Then it was too late and the sun malted the beeswax and Icarus drowned. Daedalus was alone when he got to the island he gave the sun god  his wings as a gift.
