What is the black death?

History
2 answers:
HACTEHA [7]4 years ago
8 0

The Black Death is widely believed to have been the result of plague, caused by infection with the bacterium Yersinia pestis. Modern genetic analyses indicate that the strain of Y. pestis introduced during the Black Death is ancestral to all extant circulating Y. pestis strains known to cause disease in humans. Hence, the origin of modern plague epidemics lies in the medieval period. Other scientific evidence has indicated that the Black Death may have been viral in origin. (britannica.com)

Answer: That would depend on a person's beliefs

Explanation:

To be point of fact the black plague was mostly the reason the European population died. how it was spread no one knows for sure some believe it was the air (doctors used to wear masks that looked like the face of a bird, they believed it protected them), some believe it was the fleas on the black rats.

the Black plague actually inspired the image of death, whenever you see the scathe Death is holding, that symbolized the black plague. was placed there by the church if I remember correctly and it was inspired by how the farmers cut the grains during that time. the lives of people during that plague were "cut" very easily (it might have been due to the fact they only took a shower once a year and were not exactly very knowledgeable about how bacteria spreads).

Not only were the people knowledgably in the dark during that time but also literally. there is actual scientifically proven of the people during the dark ages not being able to see the sun, the reason for that was because a volcano somewhere in the ocean (can't remember where) erupted. the explosion was so big that it sent ash into the atmosphere causing the sun to be covered.

So literally they were in the dark not from just knowledge but also from the lack of sun.

I think that the lack of knowledge of bacteria, the lack of sun light and the lack of bathing caused the Black plague to affect so many people because already their immune systems were affected.

Inga [223]

Because there was a lack of labor on southern farms after Lincoln freed all of the slaves in the United States, the southern economy collapsed.

Lincoln was actually freeing people he did not directly control by releasing slaves in the Confederacy.A lot of the Union army accepted the Proclamation because of the way he explained it.He emphasized emancipation as a means of reducing Confederate strength and shortening the war by taking resources from the South.

Liberation as Political-Military Technique.Emancipation became the primary weapon of Lincoln's political strategy at the conclusion of 1862.Emancipation shattered the core of the Southern social system as well as the Confederacy's capacity to start wars.

What are 3 examples of religious imagery used by du bois
elixir [45]

We make our heroes what we need them to be. For Edward Blum, what the world needs now is a religious W.E.B. Du Bois. Such a Du Bois would not only be a historical marker in the history of African American intellectual life, or an intriguing artifact of turn-of-the-century African American sociology, but also would offer a usable model for the religious liberal in the modern world. W.E.B. Du Bois, American Prophet provides more than an examination of the religious keywords within the massive corpus of Du Bois' output. It proposes that a religious ontology for racial reconciliation might be gleaned from this survey.

Such a thesis stands strikingly against the historical consensus about Du Bois' relationship to religion. As Blum explains, the critical view on Du Bois is that "he had little, if any" religion. To be sure (scholarship concedes), Du Bois was shaped by his boyhood church, and as an African American man he could hardly escape the institutional dominance of Protestantism. But he never attended church regularly, nor acknowledged any private practices. Moreover, Du Bois displayed open discomfort with religious expression and performance. "It frightened me at first," Du Bois wrote of the worship practices of rural Tennessee adherents. "I thought they were going crazy." Such evidence, coupled with a lifetime commitment to social scientific criticisms of religion, led the major biographers of Du Bois to conclude that he was an ardent observer of religious life. Religion for him, so we've been assured, was emphatically not a site of personal exploration or social revelation

Yet this received account collapses under the weight of counter-evidence discovered by Blum. After all, religion abounded in Du Bois' life: he taught Sunday school classes, had favorite hymns, founded the study of African American religion, and cried out for the "Prince of Peace" to "vanquish the warmongers." He authored prayers and befriended many clerics. Most important to Blum is the religious language pervading Du Bois' bibliography. God, Christ, female messiahs, good and evil, and apocalyptic visions pervade the texts of W.E.B. Du Bois. In Blum's rendering, The Souls of Black Folk supplied "a literary act not only of theological and cultural defiance but also of religious creation." W.E.B. Du Bois, American Prophet
