The Queen was hardly visible in the live coverage of her late husband's funeral on Saturday. But when the camera did catch her, it made for a poignant sight: the widow alone, an image that broke hearts around the world but one that will resonate in the UK especially. Even 5 the sternest republican has long admitted that an extraordinary bond exists between Elizabeth and the people who have been her subjects for nearly seven decades. Now, if anything, that bond will be strengthened. Part of it will be natural human sympathy for a woman deprived of the man she had known for 81 years, who had been her "strength and stay" for 73 years. Traditionally, alteration, 10 a monarch is meant to inspire awe and deference in those she reigns over. Now Drama is not serious 30 there will be tenderness too. Like every other Briton who has suffered a loss this last simile (comparison year, the mourners had to sit apart and cover their faces. They could not sing. The widow had to sit alone, denied the consolation of touch. And so the ties that bind Elizabeth to her subjects become stronger: next year she 15 will mark her platinum jubilee, a milestone that has never been reached before. But in a few days, she will be 95 years old. Which means that Saturday's hour of mourning in Windsor, like the eight days that preceded it, offered a glimpse not only of the era that is ending, but of the one that is, inevitably, on its way - the one in which the royal family will be without its oldest generation, 2 20 Some things will not change. The royal family proved again at the funeral that it bows to no one when it comes to the staging of ceremony. The monarchy probably has a fraction of the budget Netflix can splash on The Crown's recreation of royal humorou! events, but it still knows how to put on a perfect show. Similarly, the British monarchy will not lose its knack for compelling storylines. The 25 drama of William and Harry walking behind the coffin of their grandfather, apparently needing to be separated by a cousin - only then to be seen chatting after the funeral - is an archetypal soap opera plot, brothers at odds if not at war, that could run for decades. There need be no worries on that score. 13 exaggeration There are more serious concerns. Those with a closeup view testified that Prince Charles appeared to be broken-up by the death of his father, but he has stubbornly refused to arouse deep affection in the hearts of the public. Not least because the Prince of Wales has been unable to emulate the quality that is the foundation of his mother's standing: her silence on nearly every question of controversy, a fastidious neutrality that has made her acceptable to almost everyone. subjects -Unterton 04.05.2021 1 emulate -nachelfern 35 The Queen herself hardly needs to be told that no law of nature says a monarchy must exist for ever. She knows that royal stability and continuity are far from automatic, but take persistence, perseverance and deft personnel. She and her late husband fitted the bill perfectly. But from that couple, from that generation, there is now just her, alone. anaphora 4 Fundstelle: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/apr/18/the-queen-alone-how-prince- philip-death-will-change-the-future-of-the-monarchy Annotations: poignant - ergreifend; resonate - nachhallen; awe - Ehrfurcht; deference-Achtung; to bow to no one niemandem nachstehen in etwas; The Crown - Netflix series on the Queen's life; knack - Fertigkeit, Gabe; archetypal - urbildlich, prototypisch; stubbornly stur; fastidious- penibel; persistence - Hartnäckigkeit; perseverance - Ausdauer; deft-geschickt Tasks: 1.)

The article can be clivided into. four parts.. In the first part, from line I to 13 the author explains how sad it was to the audience to see the Queen alone at her husband's. funeral. The Queen has a really good bond to the Britains. According to the author, this bond will be stronger after the Prince's death. Freed land also underlines that the Queen had to sit and mourn alone, without A Britons 04/05/21 f any consolation from others. From line 14 to 19, the author. emphasizes that due to the death and the Queen getting ending the royal family does not have older, an era is. the oldest generation anymore. 2. Analysis: With the article, Jonathan Freedland criticizes the ceremony. of Prince Philip's funeral, but also. and soon sympathizes with the older.. generation. He does this by using various stylistic devices. In the third part, from line 20 to 28, Fredland underlines how Staged the funeral of the monarchy the Queen. The expression "poignant was and that the drama happening at this ceremony will be a good story line. He suspects that the arguments between William and Harry also underlined in the metaphor will go on for a long time. sight" (1.3) shows how sad it was. to see the Queen sitting alone at her husband's funeral. This is fr "an image that broke hearts around the world "(11. 3. f.). It does. not only underline the loss of the Queen, but also how liked and is admired around the world? Freedland backs up this point he made that there is an "extraordinary. bond" (1.5) the Queen has to the British people. Even "the sternest republican" (1.5) would admit that. The author as well mentions the of the Queen many times. age The mention of the words " nearly seven decades"(1.6)," for 81 years" (1.9) the In the first part of his text, t author Shows his sympathy Br In the last part, from line 29 to 39, the author explains that Prince Charles did not want to arouse affection by the public for his father's death because in the past he has not been silent as his. muliner. In the end Freedland shows that from on, the has to face the hard work of the monarchy alone. Queen R "95 years old "(1.16) and "for 73 years "(1.g.) emphasize through how much the Queen had to go and that it is admirable how long. She endured. The fact that she is deprived of the man she had known for 81 years "(11-86.) underlines the great loss and Suffering she has to face all alone. The love and affection to her husband is being underlined in the alliteration ""Strenght and stay" for 73. years "(1.9). The Simile "Like every other Briton C..." (1.11) is as well an allusion to the Corona crisis. He Criticizes that "the mourners had to sit apart "(1.12) and that "They could not sing"C1.12). The autor also refers to the Queen as "The widow"C11.12 f.) to once again, underline her lass. 4 In the next part, the author Shows that due to Prince Philip's death, there is an era that is ending. He uses the metaphor or personification of an era "that is, inevitabily, an its way "(1.18). It shows that the Sara s. old generation is about to end. First, because of Prince Philip's death and as well because the Queen "will be 95 years old" (116) Freedland underlines the upcoming of this new era and its huges changes by mentioning that the era of the royal family will be "Without its oldest generation " (1.19). In line 20, with the phrase "Some things will not change C1. 20), the author Shows an antithesis to the fact that a new era is "on its way" (1.19). It shows that even there are though huge changes within the royal family, there are many negative aspects the author wants to criticize. In the third part, the author mates use. of a humorous tone to underline the behaviour of the royal family. He mentions that the family "bows to no one when it comes to the staging of a ceremony " (1. 21). This emphasizes.. that even a funeral, which should be a serious event to remember the life of Prince Philip, is staged by the Royals. The author also refers to "The Crown C1.22> 2 R geries Inhalt they are able to put on a good show mad cheaper than Netflix which is a show that recreates seen ridiculous. ✓ royal events. He mentions that the In the next part, the author does "a fraction of the also try to make fun of Prince family gains Charles. He explains that even though Prince Charies was "broten up.

Freedland wants to criticize the amount the Royals gain, not only through the show, but also due to by the death of his father "C1.305, every other perfect shew1.23) he stubbornly "(1.30) did not they put on.

This shows that he does not take the disputes and arguments serious, especially. those between William and Harry was. was not successful with that because " with a closeup view "(1.29) the others could see how broken he (1.25). He is trying to criticize the The author also underlines that his sympathy for the Queen by saying that "her silence "(1.33) and "fastidious neutrality" (11.336.) is the reason why everybody likes and accepts her.. The fact that he does not see the within "drama" in the royal family as serious and that it seems to him like one of the family's storylines, is also made clear in the last part of the text. He says that "There are More serious concerns" (1.29) with which he makes the "drama" and the "archetypal soap opera plot" (1.27) indirectly says that the Queen has From line 35 on, the author ance again shows that the Queen is one of the "smart people" within the royal family.

He undenines this by that she and Prince Saying Shows Philip "fitted the bill perfectly. "(1.38). This also shows his positive.. view for the older generation. The anaphora "from that couple, from that generation" (1.38) that this couple and generation was a good one, but now the Queen is alone. She still is a good Queen, but the repetition. of "now just her, alone "(1.39) Shows how sad it is that this perfectly fitted (1.38) is now over. In conclusion, one can say that the author is strongly in favour of the Queen and her late husband. He admires her work. and perservance. But he does. criticize the nee newer generation by using the example of "compelling Storylines" who are fate and staged because they want the public's attention... which Sara S. 3. a) Comment' within the In his article, Freedland explains that due to the death of Prince Philip, a new era is on its way.
