The Tudors: England, 1485-1603 ? A study in breadth The Tudor dynasty stabilised England and changed it forever; yet it was riddled by crises, and ended with no clear direction for the country to follow. You will study how Henry VII and Henry VIII restored and developed their power, and analyse the impact that religious changes had on the country. You will explore a period of significant conflict with neighbouring countries and foreign powers during a time in which England was trying to assert its authority over land and sea. The second half of the course focuses on the reign of Elizabeth in particular, looking at how, through a mixture of good luck and careful planning, she became one of Britain?s most loved monarchs. France in Revolution, 1774-1815 ? A study in depth Portrayed itself as a triumph of the forces of reason over those of superstition and privilege, the French Revolution is a story of victory of ideas, rights and freedoms over the out-dated absolute power of Kings. These changes were accompanied by violent turmoil, including executions and repression, and warfare involving every other major European power. You will analyse both the causes and the impact of the revolution, and form your own judgements about one of the defining periods in European and world history. Historical Investigation: Civil Rights in the USA, 1863-present day In this module you will learn about the complex relationship between race, politics, the police, the media, the economy, education, religion and society in the USA. You will select your own area of particular interest and develop your own essay question and undertake independent research. You?ll be assessing historical debates and analysing primary evidence in order to develop and substantiate your own judgement.
