The Plague occurred in 3 Forms D e a t h The Plague occurred in 3 Forms PNEUMONIC PHASE Attacked the Lungs Caused fierce coughing & sneezing fits Chest pain, Bloody sputum SEPTICEMIC PHASE Rarest and Deadliest Traveled thru bloodstream Black spots beneath skin Victims choked on own blood, Excruciating Pain! BUBONIC PHASE Most Common Egg-sized swellings (buboes) Neck, armpits, groin (dark blisters) Headaches, Weakness, Nausea/Vomiting Severe Fever and Delirium The Whirligig was not that bad of a torture. It just spun the victim around in circles until he puked, mostly all over himself.

Origins of the Plague Believed to have started in Chinese cities around 1331

Origins of the Plague Plague was spread by fleas that lived on rats Bacteria multiply in flea’s gut. Flea drinks rat blood that carries the bacteria. Human is infected! Flea bites human and regurgitates blood into human wound. Flea’s gut clogged with bacteria.

Origins of the Plague Disease spread rapidly through crowded urban cities Mongol armies helped spread the plague

Plague Arrives in Europe Resurgence of trade helped spread plague into Europe Fleas on rats spread from trading ships into Europe Enters through Sicily and then Italian City states Quickly spreads through Europe

Plague Arrives in Europe Unsanitary conditions in cities and towns supported large populations of rats which carried the disease Fleas leapt from rats to people

Plague Arrives in Europe Doctors could not treat the disease Tried bloodletting and folk medicine Some people turned to magic and witchcraft

Plague Arrives in Europe Some believed that the plague was a punishment from God Some people blamed it on Jews who they claimed were poisoning wells Jews attacked and killed in some parts of Europe

Plague Arrives in Europe The Flagellants Groups of people who wandered through towns and countryside doing public penance Inflicted punishments on themselves to atone for the evil of the world Killed Jews they encountered

Impact of the Bubonic Plague Huge Population losses 25 million Europeans killed 35 Million Chinese killed

Economic Impact of the Bubonic Plague Town populations declined Dramatic decrease in trade Prices increased

Economic Impact of the Plague Large death rate decreased the number of available workers Farm production declined Allowed remaining workers to demand higher wages Nobles resisted which led to peasant revolts Many serfs left the manors for better jobs in the cities Led to the end of the manorial system

Social & Political Impact of the Plague Feudalism declined as peasant revolts weakened the power of landowners over peasants Monarchs gained more power and began to build powerful nations

Social & Political Impact of the Plague Led people to question their religious faith and the Church Seemed powerless to stop the plague Some clergy fled towns and others charged high prices to perform services for dying victims

Cultural Impact of the Plague Images of death appear frequently in the art and literature of the time period The Danse Macabre

Death Triumphant

Cultural Impact of the Plague Some people became pessimistic about life and feared the future. “Happy are those that have no children” Other people became preoccupied with pleasure and self indulgence. “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow you die”
