How could Boccaccio's explanation lead to distrust of religious authorities?

History
1 answer:
deff fn [24]4 years ago
4 0
The Medieval people who were able to witness and experience the Black Plague believed that the disease came from God as a form of punishment. Boccaccio was one of those people who were able to witness the plague but he had a different belief about the disease. Many people prayed to God to spare them from the disease but Boccaccio, though his book, told people that the only way to escape from the disease was to run away. This undermined the religious authorities since it presented the possibility that God could not help the people.<span />

Descrobe the loss of life caused by The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ninety minutes after it began, the attack was over. 2,008 sailors were killed and 710 others wounded; 218 soldiers and airmen (who were part of the Army prior to the independent United States Air Force in 1947) were killed and 364 wounded; 109 Marines were killed and 69 wounded; and 68 civilians were killed and 35 wounded. In total, 2,403 Americans were killed, and 1,143 were wounded.[100] Eighteen ships were sunk or run aground, including five battleships.[9][101] All of the Americans killed or wounded during the attack were legally non-combatants, given that there was no state of war when the attack occurred.[20][21][102]

Of the American fatalities, nearly half were due to the explosion of Arizona's forward magazine after it was hit by a modified 16-inch (410 mm) shell.[nb 18] Author Craig Nelson wrote that the vast majority of the U.S. sailors killed at Pearl Harbor were junior enlisted personnel. "The officers of the Navy all lived in houses and the junior people were the ones on the boats, so pretty much all of the people who died in the direct line of the attack were very junior people", Nelson said. "So everyone is about 17 or 18 whose story is told there."[103]

Among the notable civilian casualties were nine Honolulu Fire Department (HFD) firefighters who responded to Hickam Field during the bombing in Honolulu, becoming the only fire department members on American soil to be attacked by a foreign power in history. Fireman Harry Tuck Lee Pang of Engine 6 was killed near the hangars by machine-gun fire from a Japanese plane. Captains Thomas Macy and John Carreira of Engine 4 and Engine 1 respectively died while battling flames inside the hangar after a Japanese bomb crashed through the roof. An additional six firefighters were wounded from Japanese shrapnel. The wounded later received Purple Hearts (originally reserved for service members wounded by enemy action while partaking in armed conflicts) for their peacetime actions that day on June 13, 1944; the three firefighters killed did not receive theirs until on December 7, 1984, at the 43rd anniversary of the attack. This made the nine men the only non-military firefighters to receive such an award in U.S. history.[104]
