Introduction
Ever wanted to travel back in time or find out what life was like then...?
The King or Parliament? course focuses on learning through enjoyment, not bombarding you with heavy and dull information. This course is the first of several I plan, to give a full breakdown of the civil wars of England.
As such, this course will only focus on the events before the war, the main personalities, and the reasons why the war occurred. I describe the year 1641 in full (the crucial build-up year to war), to show the effects of the dispute between King and Parliament.
The course's tone is informative and easy reading, with interesting facts, tests and stories to aid in the enjoyment of learning. Most books and learning devices concentrate on the war itself and even then only on the well-known parts. This course will delve deeper than those resources into the root causes of the turmoil which racked England.
During each lesson, you can formulate your own opinions and see how you would have dealt with the events of 360 years ago. Explore the feelings of people who lived then and find out interesting anecdotal snippets of information.
The course will be broken down into the following lessons:
- Introduction to the King and the main personalities
- Guide to pre-civil war England
- Events leading up to the quarrel between King and Parliament
- A summary of lessons so far...
- A full breakdown and guide to 1641
