61. Who Is Sir Walter Raleigh? More than a friend to Elizabeth I, and courageous explorer of the New World, SirWalter raleigh had a dark side, and lived on the edge much of the time, until http://ohoh.essortment.com/whoissirwal_rfbw.htm

Who is Sir Walter Raleigh? Sir Walter Raleigh’s adventurous life in 16th century England focuses on two pivotal experiences: his prominence at Court, particularly that of Elizabeth I, and his seafaring explorations of the Americas. Born in 1552 in Hayes Barton, Devonshire, England, Raleigh went to fight in the French War of Religions on the Huguenot side at the age of roughly 15 or 16, then later studied at Oriel College in Oxford, and at the Middle Temple law college. He took up arms again in 1580, this time against the Irish rebels for independence in Munster. Always an outspoken man, Raleigh gained the notice of the Queen around this time for his unabashed criticism of English policy in Ireland, and soon he came under closer scrutiny of the Court. Apparently his candid ways were gilded with charm, however, and he soon became a favorite of the Queen, who knighted him in 1585. As Elizabeth’s reigning favorite, he began to earn royal favors including vast amounts of land in Munster, wealth and influential positions, one of which was as the monopoly holder of licenses for ale of wines, export of broadcloths and warden of the Cornish tin mines. bodyOffer(28008) So powerful was Raleigh at this time that it was often assumed Elizabeth would marry him, for there seemed no favor too large for her to grant him. He became vice-admiral of Devon and Cornwall and had a seat in Parliament. He was ultimately captain of the queen’s guard, a position that many consider may have put him close enough to the Queen that more personal favors on her part were also part of his benefits. Apparently Sir Walter’s gallant and chivalrous ways extended to more than bridging a watery gutter for passing noble ladies in the streets of London.

Sir Walter Raleigh (c.1552 - 1618) Raleigh (or Ralegh) was an adventurer, courtier to Elizabeth I, navigator, author and poet. Some thought him a rogue, others thought him an explorer and author of great vision. Born in Devon, Raleigh fought with the Hugenot in France at an early age. After a failed 'voyage of discovery' (more likely a pirating expedition) to Spain, he went to Ireland where he suppressed a rebel uprising in Munster. Raleigh returned to England to the court of Elizabeth I, where he became a favorite of the Virgin Queen. She lavished him with land, knighted him and appointed him captain of the Queen's Guard (1587), which kept him close to the Queen's side. He was not popular with everyone, however, and it is thought that Shakespeare's Love's Labors Lost is a satire of Raleigh. Between 1584-89 he led an expedition to the New World and unsuccessfully colonized Roanoke Island, North Carolina and Virginia. He brought back potatoes and tobacco to Britain, changing the face of food and commerce at home. His place at court taken by the earl of Essex, Raleigh returned to Ireland in 1589 where he tended his estates and nurtured poet Edmund Spenser. In 1592, Raleigh returned to the court of Elizabeth after a privateering mission to Portugal. When the Queen discovered his secret marriage to one of her maids of honor, Elizabeth 'Bessy' Throckmorton, he was brought back to London and thrown into the Tower.

Home Contact Links Email this page to a Friend ... Tongue Twisters Funny school reports from famous people Walter Raleigh Plymouth Ho School for Naval Children Name of Pupil: RALEIGH, Walter Age: 5 Dear Mr and Mrs Raleigh, This note is to explain why Walter has come home with a sopping wet blazer. Having lost the toss with Miss Witherington, I was on playground duty this morning. Now, not surprisingly after the torrential rain we've been having over the past few days, the playground was covered with puddles. Walter, I notices was over by the sand pit, playing dolls with Elizabeth Shrimp. When the bell went they came skipping back to class, only to find the way barred by a particularly large puddle. I would not have believed what happened next had I not seen it with my own eyes. Instead ofgoing round the puddle, Walter tool, off his blazer and laid it down for Elizabeth to tread on. The condition of Walter's blazer, therefore is entirety the result of his own stupidity. Of course his sandwiches, geometry set, champion conker, Swiss pen knife and miniature bowls set of of which were in the pockets are in the same soggy condition. P.S. You should also expect to receive a bill from Mrand Mrs Shrimp in the next few days. Stupidly, Walter pulled his blazer away before Elizabeth stepped off it, with the result that she ended up flat on her back in two inches of mud and slime. In the circumstances, her screech of 'You great Wally' was perfectly understandable.

ORDER FORM “Hugh de Selincourt, one of Raleigh’s many biographers, has called him ‘the most romantic figure of the most romantic age in the annals of English history.’ It is hard to dispute that characterization. David Quinn, another biographer of Raleigh, calls him ‘a representative figure, an originating rather than dominating one in the history of the beginning of British overseas enterprise.’ An originator of such an empire places Raleigh as a foundation stone in what he hoped would become ‘an English nation’ in America. Entrepreneur, politician, poet, historian, explorer, colonizer, by that fateful day in 1618 Raleigh had lived many lives and they converged to bring him to a spectacular end.”Opening paragraph of the Introduction.
