You receive another request for help. This time you’re being asked to identify a problem and let people know what to expect in t

he future.
Stefano Buonaiuti of Italy is in distress. What is this “pestilence” everyone is talking about? Where did it come from? What’s going to happen to Europe? Stefano has even begun to believe that no one will survive, and life as he knows it will come to an end. Your mission is to research his problem, find out what it is, what caused it, and send him a message in a time capsule letting him know what the future will bring. Read what Stefano Buonaiuti has to say about the disease:

In the year of our lord 1348 there occurred in the city of Florence a great pestilence, and such was its fury and violence that in whatever household it took hold, whosoever took care of the sick, all the carers died of the same illness, and almost nobody survived beyond the fourth day . . . Such was the fear that nobody knew what to do: when it caught hold in a household, it often happened that not a single person escaped death. . . .

At every church, or at most of them, pits were dug, down to the water-table, as wide and deep as the parish was populous; and therein, whosoever was not very rich, having died during the night, would be shouldered by those whose duty it was [and be] thrown into this pit. The next morning there would be very many in the pit. Earth would be taken and thrown down on them; and then others would come on top of them, and then earth on top again, in layers, with very little earth, like garnishing lasagna with cheese.

[Source: Stefano Buonaiuti (1327-1385)]

What does the sleepwalking scene in The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act V, suggest about customs and practices of the past?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

a, Explanation: The doctor himself tells Macbeth that Lady Macbeth must cure herself of her "mind diseased." Choice b is illogical. The fact that one person sleepwalks does not show that people in the Middle Ages were more prone to sleepwalking than they are today, and it makes little sense that they would be. Choice c is contradicted by the details in the play. Shakespeare's depiction of Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, and Macduff—among others—shows a vast understanding of emotional distress. Choice d is not supported by any details in the play.
