The Last Ironsides: The English Expedition to Portugal 1662-1668 Introduction: In the midst of the Second Anglo-Dutch War, King Charles II of England commissioned a daring expedition to Portugal, with the aim of capturing the strategic port city of Lisbon and securing a crucial foothold on the Iberian Peninsula. This was the last major naval expedition of the English Civil War, and it would prove to be a pivotal moment in the history of both England and Portugal. The Last Ironsides tells the story of this epic journey, from the preparations in England to the aftermath of the battlefield. Plot: Act I: Preparations The play opens in the bustling port city of Plymouth, where the English fleet is preparing to set sail for Portugal. The audience is introduced to the main characters: Captain John Fanshawe, a seasoned naval officer and leader of the expedition; Sir Edward Spencer, a cunning diplomat tasked with negotiating an alliance with the Portuguese; and William Penn, a Quaker who has been imprisoned for his religious beliefs and is being released from jail to join the expedition as a spy.
The t Ironsides: The English Expedition to Portugal 1662-1668 Введение: В разгар Второй англо-голландской войны английский король Карл II поручил смелую экспедицию в Португалию с целью захвата стратегического портового города Лиссабон и обеспечения решающего плацдарма на Пиренейском полуострове. Это была последняя крупная морская экспедиция английской гражданской войны, и она оказалась поворотным моментом в истории как Англии, так и Португалии. The t Ironsides рассказывает историю этого эпического путешествия, от приготовлений в Англии до последствий битвы. Сюжет: Акт I: Приготовления Спектакль открывается в шумном портовом городе Плимуте, где английский флот готовится к отплытию в Португалию. Зрителей знакомят с главными героями: капитаном Джоном Фэншоу, матерым морским офицером и руководителем экспедиции; сэр Эдвард Спенсер, хитрый дипломат, которому было поручено вести переговоры о союзе с португальцами; и Уильям Пенн, квакер, который был заключен в тюрьму за свои религиозные убеждения и выпущен из тюрьмы, чтобы присоединиться к экспедиции в качестве шпиона.
