Answer:

This article proposes that Boccaccio’s descriptions in the introduction to the Decameron which describe the activities of Florentines during the plague of 1348 are repetitions of medical advice present in plague tractates or consilia of Gentile da Foligno and Giovanni della Penna, written in Italy during the epidemic.

Explanation:

Boccaccio’s introduction can be read as a condemnation of doctors’ advice to flee the sick, since to follow their advice for the preservation of one’s own health would lead to the destruction of society. It is a call to compassion, which is precisely how Boccaccio begins the Proem (‘To take pity on people in distress is a human quality…’), and an example of the influence of doctors’ advice during the Black Death. Recent scholarship, most notably that of Samuel Kline Cohn, Jr., has repeated Boccaccio’s portrayal of the doctors during the Black Death as futile and helpless. This is an erroneous interpretation, as there is indisputable evidence of professionalism and practicality in the tractates of 1348. The wills of townspeople in Bologna during the height of the epidemic further demonstrate that doctors, professors of medicine, and barber-surgeons were staying in town and tending the sick.

Oksanka [162]

The correct phrases to link:

  • early settler in Israel
  • female head of state

Details:

Golda Meir was born in Kiev, Ukraine (then part of the Russian Empire), in 1898. Her family emigrated to the United States in 1906, where they settled in Milwaukee, WI. Golda Meir became a Zionist activist and helped raise funds for the settlement and establishment of Israel.  She and her husband moved to the Palestine Mandate territory in 1921, becoming settlers in a kibbutz there.  (Kibbutzes were collective farming settlements.)  

Meir later went on to become prime minister of Israel, holding that office from 1969 to 1974. She was the fourth prime minister of Israel, and has been the only woman to hold that office.  Meir was in office as prime minister during the time that Israeli athletes were attacked at the Munich Olympics in 1972, and also during the October War in 1973 (also known as the Yom Kippur War or the Ramadan War).
