HENRY VIII AND HIS SIX WIVES
Henry VIII one of the most famous English
kings was born on 28th June 1491, as the
second son of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York.
He became king in 1509 after his brother Prince
Arthurs death. In his youth Henry was athletic:
extremely fond of hunting and tennis. He was
very intelligent, spoke good French, Latin and
Spanish. Henry liked writing both books and
music. He was a good player of many instruments
and a composer. He was also very religious.
Nowadays, Henry VIII is mainly known for his six marriages. He married
his first wife Catherine of Aragon for political reasons, just after
he became king. They had a daughter Mary I. By the end of the 1520s
Henrys wife was in her forties and they still didnt have a son. The king
was really desperate to have a male heir.
He fell in love with Anne Boleyn, the sister of one of his many mistresses,
so he decided to divorce Catherine and tried to persuade the Pope to allow
him to do that. However, the Pope said no. So Henry VIII took England
out of the Roman Catholic Church and made himself head of the Church of
England. This was the start of Protestantism in England.
In 1533, he married Anne Boleyn. Henry hoped finally to have a male
heir. His wife, gave birth to another daughter, Princess Elizabeth. Henry
decided to get rid of Anne. She was executed for adultery in 1536.
In 1537, the king married his third wife the kind-hearted Jane Seymour.
She finally gave birth to a son who later became Edward VI. Jane, however,
died 12 days after the childs birth in 1537.
He married his fourth wife, a German princess, Anne of Cleves for
political reasons and soon divorced her. This marriage ended because Anne
deliberately made herself unattractive so that she could be free to re-
marry her sweetheart.
In 1540, Henry VIII married the beautiful and ambitious Lady Catherine
Howard, but she also was executed for adultery. His last wife Catherine
Parr outlived him and died in 1548. None of the last two wives gave birth
to any children. King Henry VIII died on 28th January 1547. To some,
Henry VIII was a strong and ruthless ruler. But he left the country in a
weak and uncertain state.

SHAKESPEARE AND HIS FAMILY


William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. His family were rather rich
and he was quite lucky because he went to school.
In 1582, when he was 18, Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway, a woman from a nearby village.
They lived happily together for a few years and they had 3 children. Suddenly, in the late 1580s,
Shakespeare heard the call and left his family. He went to London with a group of travelling
actors. His wife felt very unhappy.
In London, he started writing the plays which made him famous. He became known both as a
playwright and an actor. He performed in plays even for Queen Elizabeth I. Shakespeare left
London about 1610 and returned to Stradford where, after six years, died of a fever on 23rd April.

1. Were Shakespeares parents poor?
