Elizabeth can be regarded as one of the greatest monarchs. She committed herself to her country, even ruling out matrimony in favour of her subjects. It has been called a fantastic age. Welcome to our GCSE series on Elizabethan England, 1558-1588, where we discuss this exciting period and question whether or not it was as fantastic as first thought. The series is broken down into four areas, each area focused on one of the four key topics to be analyzed: accession, faith, challenges and population. Our series brings together Oxford historian and Tudor specialist Dr Glyn Redworth and Chris Eades, a brief history educator at one of England's oldest colleges, Harrow, that was set up during our period, in 1572, by Royal Charter of Elizabeth herself. The chapters in this series are as follow: Accession
