Elizabethan Society

The Elizabethan era is often referred to as the golden age. It was the height of the English Renaissance, which saw the rising of English poetry, music and literature. This was also the time which saw the work of William Shakespeare many other composers, compile plays that broke free of the old English style of plays.
The Elizabethan time also saw the age of exploration and expansion abroad. Whilst back at home the Protestant Reformation was becoming more acceptable to the people, especially after the Spanish Armada was repulsed.
This era is also viewed so highly due to the periods before and after. It was a short amount of time of largely internal peace between the English Reformation and the battles between Protestants and Catholics and the constant battle of parliament and the monarchy which covered the whole of the seventeenth century.
