Explanation:

The English Civil War was a war which started on the 22nd of August, 1642 and it ended on the 3rd of September, 1651. The countries involved were England, Ireland and Scotland.

Basically, the war typically between the Royalists known as Cavaliers and the Parliamentarians, who were referred to as Roundheads on issues that bordered around the governance of England and religious freedom.

Based on the Divine Rights of Kings, King Charles I believed he was appointed by God to rule the people and as such, he should only be answerable to God and not anyone else such as the parliament. King Charles I wanted a supreme power because he didn't want his decisions being queried by the parliaments and this prompted the parliamentarians to seek for separation of power.

Hence, the main reason for the English Civil War of 1642 was that, the parliamentarians demanded that some of the kings power be transferred to them which angered the royalists.

there are two central themes in  the miracle worker: that the human spirit can triumph over even the most daunting of disabilities and that a dedicated teacher can transform the lives of those with whom he or she comes into contact. these inspirational themes have long been personified in the widely known true-life relationship between helen keller and annie sullivan, but  the miracle worker  also dramatizes collateral issues that extend beyond the particular case. underlying helen’s process of learning basic principles of what annie terms “obedience” (decorum, etiquette, and hygiene), there are more universal lessons of self-governance—the inculcation of self-restraint instead of willfulness, the development of self-discipline instead of self-indulgence. only when these lessons have been mastered can helen begin to acquire language—which, annie says, “is to the mind more than light is to the eye.”
