The Last Kingdom

   The Last Kingdom is a contemporary story of redemption, vengeance and self-discovery set against the birth of England. The series combines real historical figures and events with fiction, retelling the history of King Alfred the Great and his desire to unite the many separate kingdoms into what would become England.

   Set in the 9th century AD, many of the separate kingdoms of what we now know as England have fallen to the invading Vikings, only the great Kingdom of Wessex stands defiant under its visionary King Alfred the Great. It is the last kingdom. Against this turbulent backdrop lives Uhtred. Born the son of a Saxon nobleman, he is orphaned by the Vikings and then kidnapped and raised as one of their own. Forced to choose between the country of his birth and the people of his upbringing, his loyalties are ever tested. What is he — Saxon or Viking? On a quest to claim his birthright, Uhtred must tread a dangerous path between both sides if he is to play his part in the birth of a new nation and, ultimately, recapture his ancestral lands.

    The Last Kingdom is a show of heroic deeds and epic battles but with a thematic depth that embraces politics, religion, warfare, courage, love, loyalty and our universal search for identity. Combining real historical figures and events with fictional characters, it is the story of how a people combined their strength under one of the most iconic kings of history in order to reclaim their land for themselves and build a place they call home.

Gabarito: A

Comentários

• a) Although the series shows many brave actions and battles, it also includes deeper topics(Embora a série mostre muitas ações e batalhas corajosas, também inclui tópicos mais profundos)

  Correta, podemos concluir que inclui alguns tópicos mais profundos quando ele fala " a thematic depth that embraces politics, religion, warfare, courage, love, loyalty and our universal search for identity" ( uma profundidade temática que abrange política, religião, guerra, coragem, amor, lealdade e nossa busca universal pela identidade), perceba que não só se trata de batalhas, ações ; trata-se também de amor; religião( Aprofundando assim o tema)

  b) The main character, Uhtred, is often tested, which makes the series repetitive and in need of identity(O personagem principal, Uhtred, é frequentemente testado, o que torna a série repetitiva e com necessidade de identidade)

  Errada, não se restringe apenas a isso

  c) When combining real events with fiction, the series only real strength lies in the character of King Alfred the Great( Ao combinar eventos reais com ficção, a única força real reside no personagem do Rei Alfred, o Grande)

  Errada, não é a única força

  d) The show focuses on great battles and lacks depth when representing the characters. ( O programa foca em grandes batalhas e carece de profundidade na representação dos personagens)

  Errada, ele descreve os personagens exemplo mesmo é o King Alfred
