Aristotle
On page 4, I remember Michael Smith writing that Aristotle was a "famous chic sorcerer."
On page 4, Michael Smith wrote that Aristotle was a "famous Greek philosopher."
On page 4, in a democracy the power is with the most powerful person!
On page 14 paragraph 5, I think it said something about how in a monarchy, a monarch butterfly rules everything <gulp>.
On page 14 paragraph 5, Queen Elizabeth I was an absolute monarch with final say in all matters. She governed everyone and everything in England.
On Page 13, paragraph 3, Queen Elizabeth was the first female monarch of England!
On Page 13, Paragraph 3, Queen Elizabeth was not the first female monarch of England.
Through page 4's first paragraph, I learned that a citizen is anyone who has the opportunity, or power, to be part of the legislative and judicial process.
This is correct. Double points if you find and read the sentence that supports this.
On page 14, paragraph 6, parliament is said to come from Greek and Spanish words that mean "consider."
On page 14, paragraph 6, the word parliament comes from Latin and French words that mean "discussion."
On page 5's second paragraph, Aristotle said something like the rule of many is better, but I can't remember why.
Walter is starting to be correct. Aristotle outlined how the rule of many is better than other forms of government. He wrote "the principle that the multitude ought to be supreme rather than the few best..."
On page 13, paragraph 3, I think it said that in 16th century England women were on equal footing with men.
In 16th century England, women were considered to be weaker than men, and this view applied to female royalty as well.
From the first paragraph on page 4, I recall that Democracy comes from two words...uhhh, demolition and crabs.
As written on page 4, democracy comes from two Greek words: demos, which means "the people" and kratia which means "power."
On page 15, paragraph 8, parliament could pass bills that became laws.
I think that Aristotle wrote a book call POLICIES that said "democracy arose from men's thinking that if they are unequal, they do math together to get better."
Aristotle wrote a book called POLITICS that said "democracy arose from men's thinking that if they are equal in any respect, they are equal absolutely."
On page 14, paragraph 5, Queen Elizabeth had official advisers, but final decisions were hers. Her words were law.
On pages 14 and 15, across paragraphs 5-8, I recall that two main groups helped Queen Elizabeth I. They were the minestrones and the parlors.
On pages 14 and 15, across paragraphs 5-8, the two main groups that helped Queen Elizabeth I were her ministers and members of Parliament.
By the end of the reading, I saw that Aristotle included all people in their definition of a citizen.
Aristotle only refers to men and never mentions other genders or groups.
On page 16, after reading paragraph 12, I could tell Queen Elizabeth I only cared about herself and said "the glory of my crown, is because of my title."
On page 16, after reading paragraph 12, Queen Elizabeth I was beloved by her people and said "this I account the glory of my crown, that I have reigned with your loves."
On page 5's second paragraph, Aristotle said something like the rule of many is better. I think he believed in the idea that when the views of many are brought together to make decisions, it better represents what the people want instead of just the few privileged.
Walter is correct, but what part of page 5's second paragraph supports this?
On page 16, paragraph 11, in Queen Elizabeth I's monarchy, King James I was responsible for all the decisions that were made before she died.
No, Queen Elizabeth was an absolute monarch. She appointed her cousin James IV as her successor who then became King James I upon her death.
