Mary Tudor was a hard-working girl who grew up not to love but to survive. She was taken from her mother and her father did not care for a daughter to be under his roof and name. She used all the knowledge her mother had taught her to gain the crown and throne that was rightfully hers. Her becoming queen was the worst thing the council could allow, but no matter how often she failed, she believed in one thing and acted on achieving that belief. Do you think she was mistreated by her family?

Her death, moreover, comes through the agency of an apparently gratuitous and incomprehensible evil. Her ability to accept such a death is therefore the supreme test of her faith. That the grandmother at the moment of death truly embraces the Christian mystery is her great triumph. Although, in Christian terms, such a moment is always a gift, it is one for which the recipient has prepared throughout her life. The grandmother’s most essential attribute is therefore not her meddlesomeness or her smugness, of which there has been considerable evidence throughout the story, but her maternal compassion and concern, and it is through this maternal love that she has her moment of revelation. As O’Connor once described it, “she realizes . . . that she is responsible for the man before her and joined to him by ties of kinship which have their roots deep in the mystery she has been merely prattling about so far.” The action of grace is not confined altogether to the grandmother but begins to undermine The Misfit’s own egotism and sadism. Insisting on the possibility of redemption for even this most evil of her

Julian was born in 1342 in Norwich, England and spent most of her life as an anchorite, a recluse living alone in an closed room attached to the parish church of St Julian of LeMans at Conisford in Norwich. Though few biographic details are known about Julian, it is likely she came from a wealth family as anchoresses had to prove they could support themselves through some form of income before they could be enclosed. Julian’s name could have been her baptism name or she may have followed the custom of taking the name of the saint attached to the church of which she became an anchorite.

Maria Theresa was born in Vienna, Austria at the Hofburg Palace on May 13, 1717 and was the second child and eldest daughter of Charles VI, who was the Holy Roman Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and his wife, Elisabeth Christine of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. Since Charles VI was the last remaining male heir to the Habsburg throne as his only son and sole male heir and Maria Theresa eldest brother died shortly before Maria was born. So Charles VI reformed the Salic Law, which prevented any heir who were female to succeed her father as Charles VI feared that he might not produce a son. In 1713 Charles VI issued the Pragmatic Sanction, which ensure his eldest daughter the right to take over and succeed the throne and inherit his united lands when he died. During 1720 Charles VI worked endlessly to earn supports for the Pragmatic sanction from his crown lands and over time they reluctantly agreed to honor and uphold the sanction.
