In England,  with John Lackland, the kingdom wasn't very stable. A balanced situation occurred with John's father: Henry II Plantagenet  since in his court the courtly romance was born. It spread by the second half of the XII century.  Henry Plantagenet, in fact, brought in his court the Celtic Legends, while his wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, brought the Lyric Poetry of the troubadours  and the theme of love.  The ones of the courtly romance where works composed to entertain a refined public of ladies and knights. The themes of the ancient classical literature was re-elaborated as "The Romance of Troy", "The Romance of Aeneas" and "The Romance of Thebes". The contents are connected to the "Matter of Britain" or "Arthurian" and the stories about King Arthur and the Round Table, like "Lancelot or The Knight Of The Cart" or "Perceval, The Story of the Grail" (works written by Crétien de Troyes). There are magical and mystical elements and fantasy prevails.  One of the most important themes is the theme of the "quête", or “search”, which is allegorically a soul searching.  Another theme is the courtly love or fin'amor,  in which the relationship between the woman and his lover is similar to the one between the vassal and the lord and the man has to be in "service" of the lady.  But this love is extramarital,  and so forbidden,  and not returned by the woman who generally belongs to an upper class compared to  her suitor

The British Museum of London is one of the most important museums of ancient art in the world, and there architectural elements of the Parthenon are kept,  which include about 17 statues that come from its two frontons ( the frontons represent the birth of Athena from Zeus' head and the chiaro-scuro effects and the wet drapery are very noticeable). 15 metopes are in the museum, too and they represent the fight between the centaurs and lapiths.  Thomas Bruce in 1803 removed some of the metopes from the Parthenon sawing some parts because they were too heavy. The sculptor and architect Fidia built this big architectural masterpiece and was instructed by Pericles who is famous for his eulogy about democracy in Athens and who presents the Greece capital as the "School of Hellas" in his speech Pericles said that in Athens "they favoured the many instaed of the few" and for "few" he meant the aristocracy, and for "many" he meant all the free men.  The Greeks were freedom lovers, but this didn't make them anarchists because they wanted to protect the ones who received offences. According to the Greeks, political  participation of every citizen was necessary, because just a few, only the ones who stood out, were capable to give life to their own politic but everybody could judge it. So Pericles was an important statesman, thanks to whom, now,  we can admire the wonderful frontons of the Parthenon in the British Museum.

England is a parliamentary monarchy. The British Parliament is situated in the Palace of Westminster and it is divided into two houses. The Upper House is "The House of Lords",  also called "The House of Peers", term used to indicate the English barons in the Magna Charta Libertatum of 1215. The Lower House is, instead, "The House of Commons" who obtained the political power thanks to  Magna Charta. Magna Charta Libertatum is an important document for British people and it followed the Battle of Bouvines in 1214, in which Philip II August,  King of France and John Lackland, King of England, faught against each other. The King of France wanted to regain the English feud in France and attacked England, and he won.  After this battle, John Lackland was obliged by the English barons to sign Magna Charta Libertatum, granting them a range of rights accepting to limit the king's power. So the barons formed the Parliament.
