- (Story of English, The series, Part 3) During the reigns of Henry VIII, Elizabeth I and James I England assumed an important role in world affairs, defied the Pope, established colonies and defeated the Spanish Armada. William Shakespeare lived during this period. His writings and his influence on the language is examined as is the impact of the King James Version of the Bible. Also examines the lifestyles of the people who came to the New World in the 1600s to establish settlements--the first migrations of the English people and their language to new lands.
