The Victorian Period Queen Victoria The Victorian period formally begins in 1837 (the year Victoria became Queen) and ends in 1901 (the year of her death). As a matter of expediency‚ these dates are sometimes modified slightly. 1830 is usually considered the end of the Romantic period in Britain‚ and thus makes a convenient starting date for Victorianism. Similarly‚ since Queen Victoria’s death occurred so soon in the beginning of a new century‚ the end of the previous century provides a useful

I will talk in this part of the notion: “Places and forms of Power”. We studied in class the Commonwealth of Nations and talk about her Majesty the Queen of England as a leading thread for this notion. Also to make it differently I have chosen to take as example the Media. They are called the 4th power and Internet is called the 5th power. Since many years the media did not stop to evolve.

On the contrary‚ non-voluntarists don’t presuppose a god. Although non-voluntarists deny theism and a metaphysical role of the god in morality‚ which the voluntarists
