Endowed with intelligence, creative energy and a remarkably long life, Eleanor of Aquitaine played a major role in the 12th century, an impressive achievement given that medieval women were considered nothing more than chattel. Assets of brains and enterprise served her well in the chaos of the time—unrelenting hostilities between Plantagenets and Capets, crusades and struggle between church and state. They equipped her to advance civility in a ruthless era by promoting the songs of troubadours and the ideals of courtly love. Even in a century of imposing personalities—the likes of Thomas Becket, Bernard of Clairvaux and Peter Abélard—Eleanor took center stage

How did Henry IV lay the foundations on which French monarchs would rule with absolute power?
gayaneshka [121]

I don't see any answers in the list that are fully correct.

Henry IV did not create the Estates General.  That institution had developed already in medieval France, fell out of use, but then was revived during the latter half of the 16th century, a couple decades before Henry IV came to the throne.

Henry IV did not oppress the French people but sought to build roads and improve agriculture for the betterment of France and to build the loyalty of the people to his rule.

He did overthrow the previous ruler (Henry III), but not in "totalitarian fashion."  After winning the "War of the Three Henrys" in order to become king, Henry sought to bring France to peace after religious warfare.  He had been Protestant but converted to Catholicism for the sake of national peace, while at the same time extending legal protections to the Protestant minority.

Under Henry IV's rule, the central government did not control "almost every aspect of life."  He worked hard to consolidate and centralize power for his government, but he was not yet what we would call an "absolute" ruler.

How did francesco petrarch interact with others?
Akimi4 [234]

Francesco Petrarca (Italian:1304 - 1374), commonly anglicized as Petrarch, was a scholar and poet of Renaissance Italy who was one of the earliest humanists.  

His rediscovery of Cicero's letters is often credited with initiating the 14th-century Renaissance. Petrarch is often considered the founder of Humanism.

In the 16th century, Pietro Bembo created the model for the modern Italian language based on Petrarch's works, as well as those of Giovanni Boccaccio, and, to a lesser extent, Dante Alighieri. Petrarch would be later endorsed as a model for Italian style by the Accademia della Crusca.

Petrarch interact with others through literature. He spent a great part of his life seeking out, transcribing, editing, elucidating and making available the surviving works of Roman classical literature, and it was for this and for his letters and his biographies of famous Romans written in Latin that he himself above all expected to be remembered.
