edgar allan poe

Edgar Allan Poe (January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American writer, poet, editor and literary critic, and is considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective-fiction genre. He is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction.He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.
He was born as Edgar Poe in Boston, Massachusetts; his parents died when he was young. Poe was taken in by John and Frances Allan, of Richmond, Virginia, but they never formally adopted him. After spending a short period at the University of Virginia and briefly attempting a military career, Poe parted ways with the Allans. Poe's publishing career began humbly, with an anonymous collection of poems, Tamerlane and Other Poems (1827), credited only to "a Bostonian".
Poe switched his focus to prose and spent the next several years working for literary journals and periodicals, becoming known for his own style of literary criticism. His work forced him to move between several cities, including Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York City. In Baltimore in 1835, he married Virginia Clemm, his 13-year-old cousin. In January 1845, Poe published his poem "The Raven'' to instant success. His wife died of tuberculosis two years later. He began planning to produce his own journal, The Penn (later renamed The Stylus), though he died before it could be produced. On October 7, 1849, at age 40, Poe died in Baltimore; the cause of his death is unknown and has been variously attributed to alcohol, brain congestion, cholera, drugs, heart disease, rabies, suicide, tuberculosis, and other agents.
Poe and his works influenced literature in the United States and around the world, as well as in specialized fields, such as cosmology and cryptography. Poe and his work appear throughout popular culture in literature, music, films, and television. A number of his homes are dedicated museums today.

charles darwin

Charles Robert Darwin FRS (12 February 1809 – 19 April 1882) was an English naturalistwho realised and presented compelling evidence that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors, through the process he called natural selection. The fact that evolution occurs became accepted by the scientific community and much of the general public in his lifetime, while his theory of natural selection came to be widely seen as the primary explanation of the process of evolution in the 1930s, and now forms the basis of modern evolutionary theory. In modified form, Darwin’s scientific discovery is the unifying theory of the life sciences, providing logical explanation for the diversity of life.
At Edinburgh University Darwin neglected medical studies to investigate marine invertebrates, then the University of Cambridge encouraged a passion for natural science. His five-year voyage on HMS Beagle established him as an eminent geologist whose observations and theories supported Charles Lyell's uniformitarian ideas, and publication of his journal of the voyage made him famous as a popular author. Puzzled by the geographical distribution of wildlife and fossils he collected on the voyage, Darwin investigated the transmutation of species and conceived his theory of natural selection in 1838. Although he discussed his ideas with several naturalists, he needed time for extensive research and his geological work had priority. He was writing up his theory in 1858 when Alfred Russel Wallace sent him an essay which described the same idea, prompting immediate joint publication of both of their theories.
His 1859 book On the Origin of Species established evolutionary descent with modification as the dominant scientific explanation of diversification in nature. He examined human evolution and sexual selection in The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex followed by The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals. His research on plants was published in a series of books, and in his final book, he examined earthworms and their effect on soil.

Tudor's London.

Tudor London can be described as a prosperous, bustling city during the Tudor dynasty. In fact

, the population increased from 75,000 inhabitants with Henry VII to 200,000 at the end of the

16th century.

The Tudor monarchs had a royal residence in London called Whitehall Palace and another in the

countryside,called Hampton court , after Cardinal Wolsey gave it to Henry VIII.These Tudor

kings and queens used what are now famous parks , such as Hyde Park or St. James's Park , as

Royal Hunting forests.


Not many Tudor buildings survive today, mostly because of The Great Fire , which happened in

1666. Besides, , the 13 religious houses in London were converted for private use or pulled down

for building materials after the Dissolution of the monasteries, which was Henry VIII's most

decisive step against the power of the church in 1538.


Apart from that, the theatres were banned from the city by the city authorities or guilds because

plays wasted workmen's time .Then tey were built in the Southwark where now are

constructionof the Globe can be visited to learn about Tudor theatre.


At that time, London's financial rival was the city of Amsterdam, and to be able to compete with

it , an international exchange was created in 1566.


So, all in all, and because of many other events and facts, we can say that both London and

England were powerful.

shakespeare

William Shakespeare (baptised 26 April 1564 – 23 April 1616)[a] was an English poet and playwright, widely

regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's preeminent dramatist.[1] He is often called

England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "The Bard"). His surviving works consist of 38 plays,[b] 154

sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living

language, and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.[2]

Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon. At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, who bore

him three children: Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. Between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career

inLondon as an actor, writer, and part owner of a playing company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known

as the King's Men. He appears to have retired to Stratford around 1613, where he died three years later. Few records

of Shakespeare's private life survive, and there has been considerable speculation about such matters as his sexuality,

religious beliefs, and whether the works attributed to him were written by others.[3]

Shakespeare produced most of his known work between 1590 and 1613. His early plays were mainly comedies and

histories, genres he raised to the peak of sophistication and artistry by the end of the sixteenth century. He then wrote
mainly tragedies until about 1608, including Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth, considered some of the finest

examples in the English language. In his last phase, he wrote tragicomedies, also known as romances, and

collaborated with other playwrights. Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy

during his lifetime. In 1623, two of his former theatrical colleagues published the First Folio, a collected edition of his

dramatic works that included all but two of the plays now recognised as Shakespeare's.

Shakespeare was a respected poet and playwright in his own day, but his reputation did not rise to its present heights

until the nineteenth century. The Romantics, in particular, acclaimed Shakespeare's genius, and the Victorians hero-

worshipped Shakespeare with a reverence that George Bernard Shaw called "bardolatry".[4] In the twentieth

century, his work was repeatedly adopted and rediscovered by new movements in scholarship and performance. His

plays remain highly popular today and are constantly performed and reinterpreted in diverse cultural and political

contexts throughout the world.
