Chapter 9 10
  • Scientific Revolution
  • English and American Revolutions

Famous scientific men
  • Nicolaus Copernicus- believed that the Earth was
    round and that it rotated on its axis as it
    revolved around the Sun. The Sun stayed still at
    the center of the Universe. Started scientific
    career in Poland at the University of Krakow 1492
  • Johannes Kepler- used Tycho Brahes mathematical
    data to prove Copernicus theories. Also believed
    that the planets traveled in ellipses
  • Galileo Galilei- faced opposition to his
    theories, he reasoned that not all Heavenly
    bodies revolved around the Sun, Some planets did
    move around the Sun
  • Isaac Newton- used scientific method as he
    studied. He discovered Gravity explaning why
    planets move .calculus

Tycho Brahe

Tycho Brahe
  • His astronomical achievements
  • made a remarkable star catalogue of over 1000
    stars. This was not the biggest catalogue in the
    number of stars, but in accuracy. His
    improvements of methods and accuracy in
    observations was very significant. He proved that
    comets are not objects in the atmosphere. He
    showed irregularities in the moons orbit. His
    wall quadrant and other instrument became widely
    copied and lead to improved stellar instruments.
    Kepler used Tycho Brahe's observations when he
    constructed his famous laws of planetary
    movement.

  • Tycho's observations of the new star of 1572 and
    comet of 1577, and his publications on these
    phenomena, were instrumental in establishing the
    fact that these bodies were above the Moon and
    that therefore the heavens were not immutable as
    Aristotle had argued and philosophers still
    believed. The heavens were changeable and
    therefore the Aristotelian division between the
    heavenly and earthly regions came under attack
    (see, for instance, Galileo's Dialogue) and was
    eventually dropped. Further, if comets were in
    the heavens, they moved through the heavens. Up
    to now it had been believed that planets were
    carried on material spheres (spherical shells)
    that fit tightly around each other. Tycho's
    observations showed that this arrangement was
    impossible because comets moved through these
    spheres. Celestial spheres faded out of existence
    between 1575 and 1625

Galileo Galilei

12
Galileo observed the moon through his telescope
and discovered that it had craters, mountains,and
valleys. He made several sketches of the moon's
features. Some of these sketches are still around
today
13
Galileo used his telescope to observe the sun,
too. He discovered sunspots that drifted from one
side of the sun's disc to the other. He theorized
that the movement must be due to the rotation
ofthe sun. Galileo was not the first to observe
sunspots, however. The ancient Chinese noticed
sunspots when they observed the sun when it was
low on the horizon on misty mornings. Galileo's
blindness later in life was probably caused by
looking at the sun carelessly. Looking at the sun
for even a second through binoculars or a
telescope is very dangerous and could blind
you In addition to his other discoveries, Galileo
was the first to notice that Saturn had strange
"ears" or "handles". Much later, it was
discovered that they were rings. Galileo also
noticed that the Milky Way was made of stars
instead of being a homogenous band.

Isaac Newton

Isaac Newton
Isaac Newton
  • Objects at rest will stay at rest and objects in
    motion will stay in motion in a straight line
    unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. 
  • Force is equal to mass times acceleration. 
  • For every action there is always an opposite and
    equal reaction. 

17
The first law of motion An object remains still
in a state of rest or moves with a steady speed
in a straight line if forces do not act upon it .
If a ball is kicked in outer space it will move
steadily at the same speed as no forces act upon
it. If a ball is kicked on earth it will slowy
stop on the ground as friction,air resistance and
gravity act upon it.
18
The second law of motion                        
                                    When a force
acts on an object it builds up speed related to
the magnitude of the force. When a ball is kicked
its speed is related to the force of the kick and
the weight of the ball. The ball also moves in
the direction of the kick. So a big heavy ball
would go slower than a small, light ball.
19
The third law of motion                         
                                      If item A
releases a force on item B, item B always
releases the same force on item A. If two balls
travelling towards each other meet they will
bounce back off each other. The speed at which
they meet is the sum of the two balls speed. If a
person kicks up a ball, the moment they let go of
the ball the ball pushes down on them with equal
force of which they kicked the ball up. this is
shown if the person stands on scales.

  • Natural law- could be understood by applying
    reason
  • Thomas Hobbes John Locke- believed in a social
    contract with the people and the right of people
    to overthrow an unjust Gov. right of people
  • natural rights- rights belonging to all humans at
    birth
  • Thomas Jefferson- Writer of Declaration of
    Independence

33
John Locke Locke believed that people in a state
of nature are reasonable and moral , and that
they have natural rights- people create
governemnt to protect natural rights.. A gov.
functions best when its powers are limited
34
Thomas Hobbes he used natural law to argue that
absolute monarchy was best form of Gov. He
believed that violence and disorder came
naturally to Human beings and without absolute
gov. chaos would exist

  • English and American Revolutions

36
Revolutionaries
  • Divine Right- that monarchs derive the power
    directly from God
  • Royalist- pro-monarchy groups
  • Commonwealth- a state ruled by elected
    representatives
  • James I- son of Elizabeth cousin Mary of Scots he

  • Purtians- they wanted to purify the church of
    England
  • Charles I- son of James I, opposted the Purtians,
    wanted a war with Spain, he housed troops in
    private homes.

37
Civil War in England
  • At the death of Elizabeth I her cousins son Mary
    of Scots James I became King who was already King
    of Scotland. James Believed in divine right-
    (power from God).James weakness was spending too
    much money and asking Parliament for more.He even
    sold titles of nobility for money.He even tried
    to marry his son to a Spanish catholic priness.

38
  • King James I was a Christian who wanted the Bible
    in the hands of the common man. Commissioned the
    Authorized King James Bible in 1611.
  • Fluent in Greek, Latin, French, English, and his
    native Scots. Schooled in Italian and Spanish
  • Formed the foundation for what is now known as
    the British Empire by uniting warring tribes of
    Scotland and then enjoining the crowns of
    Scotland and England in 1603. First to call it
    Great Britain.
  • King James was became King of Scotland in 1567
    when he was 13 months old and acceded to the
    English throne in 1603.
  • Reformation leader John Knox read the sermon when
    he was crowned King.
  • He endured racism as a Scot ruling over the
    English, nevertheless had the love and admiration
    of many subjects. Years after his death,
    detractors tried to sully his good name.
    Unfortunately, it continues today, yet KJV
    translators, yea the King himself had predicted
    such

Religion and the Monarchy
  • Many belonged to the church of England but
    disagreed about the doctrine and rituals of the
    church.. The purtians-they wanted the purify the
    church of remaining Catholic rituals and symbols.
    James viewed the criticism of the Church as being
    unloyal to the church.The Purtians came to the
    King with a petition to change the church he
    warned the Purtians if they did not conform he
    would force them out of the land. He also during
    his reign in 1604 had a translation of the Bible
    drawn up from Greek and the Hebrew this became
    known as the King James Bible.

Charles I
  • James I dies in 1625 , Charles I takes over.He
    opposed the puritians. H e married a catholic
    princess Henrietta Maria. He asked for Money to
    fight France and Spain Parliament refused to give
    him all of the money he dissolved Parliament and
    made Nobles give loans and when they refused he
    put them in jail. People also became angery with
    the Kings due to him making soldiers live in
    private homes. The King also placed some areas
    under Martial Law.

  • Charles believed in the divine right of kings and
    in the authority of the Church of England. These
    beliefs soon brought him into conflict with
    Parliament and ultimately led to civil war. He
    came under the influence of his close friend
    George Villiers, 1st duke of Buckingham, whom he
    appointed his chief minister in defiance of
    public opinion and whose war schemes in Spain and
    France ended ignominiously. Charles convoked and
    dissolved three Parliaments in four years because
    they refused to comply with his arbitrary
    measures including the demand that his subjects
    pay for military expenditures and imprisoning
    those who did not pay. When the third Parliament
    met in 1628, it presented the Petition of Right,
    a statement demanding that Charles make certain
    reforms in exchange for war funds. Charles was
    forced to accept the petition.

49
  • Parliament to pay for the war if the King would
    sign the Petition of rights-forbid the king from
    collecting taxes or force loans.He could not
    imprison someone with out just cause., troops
    could not live in private homes, Kings could not
    declare martial law unless at war. As soon as he
    received the money he promised to never call
    Parliament and refused to obey the petition of
    rights. He and the archbishop William Laud began
    persecuting Purtians. Thousands of Purtians
    left.(Great Migration) http//www.britannia.com/hi

  • However, in 1629, Charles dismissed Parliament
    and had several parliamentary leaders imprisoned.
    Charles governed without a Parliament for the
    next 11 years. During this time forced loans,
    poundage, tonnage, ship money, and other
    extraordinary financial measures were sanctioned
    to meet governmental expenses.
  • In 1637 Charles's attempt to impose the Anglican
    liturgy in Scotland led to rioting by
    Presbyterian Scots. Charles was unable to quell
    the revolt, and in 1640 he convoked the so-called
    Short Parliament to raise an army and necessary
    funds. This body, which sat for one month
    (April-May), refused his demands, drew up a
    statement of public grievances, and insisted on
    peace with Scotland. Obtaining money by irregular
    means, Charles advanced against the Scots, who
    crossed the border, routed his army at Newburn,
    and soon afterward occupied Newcastle and Durham

  • His money exhausted, the king was compelled to
    call his fifth Parliament, the Long Parliament,
    in 1640. Led by John Pym, it proceeded against
    the two chief royal advisers, the archbishop of
    Canterbury, William Laud, and Sir Thomas
    Wentworth, 1st earl of Strafford. Parliament
    secured the imprisonment and subsequent
    executions of both men. In 1641 Charles agreed to
    bills abolishing the prerogative courts,
    prohibiting arbitrary taxation, and ensuring that
    this Parliament would not be dissolved without
    its own permission. The king also agreed to more
    religious liberties for the Scots. Soon after,
    Charles was implicated in a plot to murder the
    leaders of the Covenanters, a Scottish group
    devoted to maintaining Presbyterianism. When
    Charles visited Scotland in August 1641, he
    promised Archibald Campbell, 8th earl of Argyll,
    a Covenanter leader, that he would submit to the
    demands of the Scottish Parliament.

54
  • While still in Scotland, the king received word
    of a rebellion in Ireland in which thousands of
    English colonists were massacred. When he
    returned to London in November, he tried to have
    Parliament raise an army, under his control, to
    put down the Irish revolt. Parliament, fearing
    that the army would be used against itself,
    refused, and issued the Grand Remonstrance, a
    list of reform demands, including the right of
    Parliament to approve the king's ministers.
    Charles appeared in the House of Commons with an
    armed force and tried to arrest Pym and four
    members. The country was aroused, and the king
    fled with his family from London.
  • Both sides then raised armies. The supporters of
    Parliament were called Roundheads, and those of
    the king, Cavaliers. The first civil war of the
    English Revolution, now inevitable, began at
    Edgehill on October 23, 1642. The.

56
  • Cavaliers were initially successful, but after a
    series of reverses Charles gave himself up to the
    Scottish army on May 5, 1646. Having refused to
    accept Presbyterianism, he was delivered in June
    1647 to the English Parliament. Later he escaped
    to the Isle of Wight but was imprisoned there. By
    this time a serious division had occurred between
    Parliament and its army. The army's leader,
    Oliver Cromwell and his supporters, the
    Independents, compelled Parliament to pass an act
    of treason against further negotiation with the
    king.
  • Eventually, the moderate Parliamentarians were
    forcibly ejected by the Independents, and the
    remaining legislators, who formed the so-called
    Rump Parliament, appointed a court to try the
    king. On January 20, 1649, the trial began in
    Westminster Hall. Charles denied the legality of
    the court and refused to plead. On January 27 he
    was sentenced to death as a tyrant, murderer, and
    enemy of the nation.

Oliver Cromwell
59
  • Scotland protested, the royal family entreated,
    and France and the Netherlands interceded, in
    vain. Charles was beheaded at Whitehall, London.
    Subsequently Oliver Cromwell became chairman of
    the council of state, a parliamentary agency that
    governed England as a republic until the
    restoration of the monarchy in 1660

62
Civil war Begins
  • King Charles had to call up Parliament to ask for
    money But he did not like their answer so he
    dissolved this Parliament(short paarliament).
    Soon later he recalled them again and this
    parliament lasted 20 years. The began reducing
    Charles power. Problems began in Ireland they had
    remained Catholic and were angry about their land
    being taken from them, also the scots were
    rebelling due to the church of England forcing a
    prayer Book on the Calvinist church.

63
  • Charles WAS UNDER THE MERCY OF the Purtian
    Parliament. A group the Royalist supporters of
    the King formed. The King marched troops into
    Parliament to capture the leaders of the Purtians
    they escaped but this began war between
    Parliament and the King.
  • The cavaliers- supporters of the King at war time
  • Round heads-parliament supporters led by Oliver
    Cromwell The Parliament won and the King was
    executed in 1649. Cromwell became in charge of
    the new commonwealth.

64
  • Cavaliers- the king cavalry horsemen supporters
    of Charles I
  • Roundheads- close- cropped hair, supported the
    Purtians
  • Oliver Cromwell- he led the parliamentary forces
    against the King and defeated them and became
    ruler of England
  • Constitutional Monarchy- a form of Government in
    which the monarchs power is limited by a
    constitution.
  • Charles II- Became King on May 29, 1660, after
    Cromwell, this was called the Restortation

66
Monarchy restored
  • Charles II returns May 29, 1660.this period is
    called restoration.He outwardly supported the
    Church of England but secretly favored the
    catholic church.The clarendon codes were passed
    making the church of England state religion.100s
    of Purtian clergy were driven from the church.
    John milton wrote Pardise lost. One of Charles
    first orders was that Cromwells body should be
    dug up and put on 'trial' as a traitor and
    regicide (someone who is responsible for the
    execution/murder of a king or queen). His body
    was put on trial, found guilty and symbolically
    hanged from a gallows at Tyburn (near Hyde Park,
    London). What was left of his body remains a
    mystery. Some say the body was thrown on to a
    rubbish tip while others say it was buried
    beneath the gallows at Tyburn. His head was put
    on display in London for many years to come.

67
  • What happened to Cromwells body after his
    death?Where are his mortal remains now? There
    has been considerable controversy about the true
    resting place of Cromwells mortal remains, with
    doubts surfacing at the time and a variety of
    stories finding their way into print in the
    eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. However, it
    is likely that Cromwells body was buried in a
    vault in Westminster Abbey in autumn 1658, and
    that it was located, exhumed and posthumously
    executed in January 1661. His headless trunk
    probably lies in an unmarked grave in the Tyburn
    area, while his head, which became an undignified
    collectors object, was eventually bequeathed to
    his former Cambridge College, Sidney Sussex, and
    was in 1960 immured in the anti-chapel there

    out consent of Parliament and could not suspend
    laws also guaranteed trial by jury, outlawed
    cruel and unusual punishment, limited the amount
    of bail. Citizens were given the right to appeal.
    The act of settlement excluded any Catholic from
    inheriting the Throne.
