	''Remember, remember the ~~Fifth~~ of November~~.'' <br />~~		5 November. Day on which the [[Gunpowder Plot]] failed. Symbolic date that looms large in collective memory ("Remember, remember, the fifth of November") and is still celebrated with bonfires and fireworks.
	~~''Gunpowder, treason~~ and ~~plot.'' <br />~~
	~~''I can think of no reason why gunpowder treason'' <br />~~
	~~''should ever be forgot~~.''

	~~Guy Fawkes and some other~~ Catholics ~~wanted~~ to blow up the House of Parliament ~~and~~ King [[James I]] ~~in 1605~~.		In 1605, a group of English Catholics planned to blow up the House of Lords during the [[State Opening of Parliament]], an occasion on which King [[James I]] would have been present. However, the plan was reported to the authorities, and [[Guy Fawkes]], one of the conspirators, was arrested while he was guarding the explosives. The conspirators were charged with treason and sentenced to death by drawing and quartering. Very soon, 5 November turned into a symbolic victory of English Protestants over the Catholic 'Other'.

	In the Restoration period, Guy Fawkes Day was often used for anti-Catholic demonstrations. People burned effigies of the Pope and conserved the memory that Catholics were evil terrorists. ~~Especially~~ popular ~~ceremony~~ after the [[Great Fire of London]] and during the [[Exclusion crisis\|Exclusion Crisis]].		In the [[Restoration]] period, Guy Fawkes Day was often used for anti-Catholic demonstrations. People burned effigies of the Pope and conserved the memory that Catholics were evil terrorists. The ceremony became especially popular after the [[Great Fire of London]] and during the [[Exclusion crisis\|Exclusion Crisis]].

	~~As symbolic date for the landing of~~ [[William III\|William of Orange]] in England ~~(in~~ 1688~~) signal of his Protestantism and his role~~ of hero who ~~saves~~ England from the attacks by evil Catholics.		It is probably no coincidence that [[William III\|William of Orange]] [[Glorious Revolution\|landed in England]] on 5 November 1688. Although he might be seen as a foreign invader who deposed the rightful King of England, [[James II]], he stylised himself as a hero who had come to save England from the attacks by evil Catholics.
