What is the Black Death?

Where did the Black Death come from?

What caused the plague? The question that you are probably thinking is this; Q: Who or what caused the Black Death? A: This is your answer! The Oriental Rat Flea!

What were the symptoms of the plague?

Cures? Medieval people did not know about germs causing disease. They did not understand that plague was spread by rats and fleas. They thought that people’s bodies were poisoned. If the swellings burst and the poison came out people sometimes survived. It seemed sensible to draw out the poison.

Medieval cure number 1 The swellings should be softened with figs and cooked onions. The onions should be mixed with yeast and butter. Then open the swellings with a knife.

Medieval cure number 2 Take a live frog and put its belly on the plague sore. The frog will swell up and burst. Keep doing this with further frogs until they stop bursting. Some people say that a dried toad will do the job better.

Medieval Art & the Plague An obsession with death.

Boccaccio¹s Decameron Written around 1350 during an outbreak of the Plague in Florence, the Decameron is a fictional account of 10 young people who flee to a country manor, and begin telling stories to keep themselves occupied and diverted from the tragedy they have fled.

Where does the plague exist today?
