the victorian era.

             The Victorian era is the time when queen Victoria ruled the English. this was a time of expansion, improve of schools, hospitals, and religious movements succeeded. It was also the time for prosperity of the countries economy. people had interest in art and music (nick named the second renaissance).

            The working class though had still had a hard time just surviving, there was a bill passed saying that children under nine could not work in textile industries. But this did not point out that there could be other jobs like coal making or other jobs that kids could do while still young. the Victorian era was also the time for great scientific discoveries in fact this was the time Darwin made the false theory of evolution, also the ideas of socialism, Marxism, and feminism had began. plus there are novels that were made during this time.

  1. I really liked how you included the progress of ideas (Darwin, feminism, Marxism) in the era...though, could you tell me what all those doctrines are? (Remember, you do not want to write about concepts you yourself don't know!)

    Next time, remember to use simple, proper grammar: capitalizing the first letter in sentences, two spaces after periods, etc. Lastly, also EDIT your work so that it sounds and flows smoothly--I'd rather have a little bit of work sound great than lots that sounds okay.
