Edward VI
/ˌedwəd ðə ˈsɪksθ/
/ˌedwərd ðə ˈsɪksθ/
- (1537-53) the king of England from 1547 to 1553. He was the son of King Henry VIII and his third wife Jane Seymour, and the half-brother (= brother by a different mother) of Mary I and Elizabeth I. He became king at the age of ten, so other people, called regents governed for him. One of them persuaded him to change his will, giving the throne to Lady Jane Grey, but the plan failed and Mary became queen when Edward died. During this period, with Edward's support, England became much more strongly Protestant, so that Mary was unable to change it back to Catholicism.
爱德华六世(1537-53):1547年至1553年的英格兰国王。他是亨利八世国王和他的第三任妻子简·西摩的儿子,以及玛丽一世和伊丽莎白的同父异母兄弟(异母兄弟) I.他十岁就成为国王,所以其他人称摄政王为他统治。其中一位说服他改变了遗嘱,将王位赠予简·格雷夫人,但计划失败,当爱德华死后,玛丽成为女王。在此期间,在爱德华的支持下,英格兰成为了更加强大的新教徒,因此玛丽无法将其改回天主教。
