Religious theatre mostly served the purpose of teaching the word of Christ.
Mystery plays were stories taken from the Bible. The play usually ended outside the church so that the people would go to church and hear a sermon after watching the play.
The Miracle play was about the life or actions of a saint, usually about the actions that made that person a saint. One popular Miracle play was about Saint George and the dragon.
Morality plays were designed to teach people a lesson in how to live their life according to the rules of the church.
Classical theatre - using Italian names and settings for their works drew from Italian renaissance writers not so much from the classics themselves (Romeo and Juliet - Verona)
Milton - The first version, published in 1667, consists of ten books with over ten thousand lines of verse. The poem concerns the biblical story of the Fall of Man: the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan and their expulsion from the Garden of Eden.
An epic poem is a lengthy narrative poem, ordinarily involving a time beyond living memory in which occurred the extraordinary doings of the extraordinary men and women who, in dealings with the gods or other superhuman forces, gave shape to the mortal universe for their descendants, the poet and their audience, to understand themselves as a people or nation.

Henry VIII
Married 6 times
3 children
Was convinced he needed a male heir to secure prosperity for the kingdom.
Even split from the church of England because of this.
Married Catherine of Aragon (dead brother's - Arthur wife but marriage was never consummated so Pope annulled the marriage and therefore Henry could marry her).
She only gave him a girl so he wanted to annul the marriage on the grounds that Catherine and Arthur had consummated their marriage. Pope refused. Henry angry. Split from the church and appointed himself head of the church of England. Wanted to remain catholic put protestant influences seeped through and the Church of England became a protestant church.
Henry died in 1547 and was succeeded by his son (9 years old) Edward VI
