The Black Death

Black Death, the 19th-century CE term for the epidemic plague that (a)************** (ravage -S.P.) Europe between 1347-1352 CE, killing an estimated 30 million people there and many more worldwide as it (b)***************** (reach-S.P.) pandemic proportions. The name comes from the black buboes (infected lymph glands) which (c)**************** (breake – S.P.)) out over a plague victim’s body. The cause of the plague (d) **************** (be – S.P.) the bacterium Yersinia pestis, which was carried by fleas on rodents, usually rats, but this was not known to the people of the medieval period, as it was only identified in 1894 CE. Prior to that time, the plague was attributed primarily to supernatural causes – the wrath of God, the work of the devil, the alignment of the planets – and, stemming from these, “bad air” or an unbalance of the “humors” of the body which, when in line, (e) ************** (keep – S.P.) a person healthy.
Since no one (f) ******************* (know- S.P.) what caused the disease, no cure was possible, but this (g) ********************** (neg/stop – S.P.) people from trying what they could based on the medical knowledge of the time which (h) ******************** (come- S.P) primarily from the Greek doctor Hippocrates (l. c. 460 - c. 370 BCE), philosopher Aristotle of Stagira (l. 384-322 BCE), and the Roman physician Galen (l. 130-210 CE) as well as religious belief, folklore, herbalism, and superstition. These cures – most of which were ineffective and some of which (i) ******************* (be- S.P.) fatal – fall roughly into five categories:
• Animal cures
• Potions, Fumigations, Bloodletting, Pastes
• Flight from Infected Areas and Persecution of Marginalized Communities
• Religious Cures
• Quarantine and Social Distancing

Of these five, only the last – quarantine and what is now known as “social distancing” – (j) ****************** (have- S.P.) any effect on stopping the spread of plague. Unfortunately, people in 14th-century CE Europe were as reluctant to stay isolated in their homes as people are in the present day during the Covid-19 pandemic. The wealthy (k) ********************* (buy – S.P.) their way out of quarantine and (L) ***************** (fleed – S.P.) to country estates, spreading the disease further, while others helped with the spread by ignoring quarantine efforts and continuing to participate in religious services and by going about their daily business. By the time the plague ended in Europe, millions were dead and the world the survivors (m) ******************* (Know – Past Perf.) would be radically changed.

Arrival of the Plague & Spread

The plague (n) ****************** (kill – Pres. Perf.) people in the Near East since before 1346 CE, but that year it grew worse and more widespread. In 1343 CE, the Mongols under the Khan Djanibek (r. 1342-1357 CE) (o) ************************ (respond – S.P.) to a street brawl in the Italian-held Crimean town of Tana in which a Christian Italian merchant (p) ******************** (kill- S.P.) a Mongol Muslim.
The Italian notary Gabriele de Mussi (l. c. 1280 - c. 1356 CE) was either an eyewitness to the siege or received a first-hand account and (Q) ******************** (write – S.P.) of it in 1348/1349 CE. He reports how, as the Mongol warriors died and their corpses filled the camp, the people of Caffa rejoiced that God was striking down their enemies.
It (r) ********************** (have/be/suggest – Pres. Perf.) by some modern-day scholars that the dead could not have infected the people of Caffa as the disease could not be transmitted by handling corpses but, even if that were true, many of these dead bodies – described as “rotting” – were most likely already in an advanced state of putrefaction and gases and bodily fluids (s) ******************** (can – S.P.) have infected the city’s defenders as they (t) ********************** (try- S.P.) to dispose of what de Mussi describes as “mountains of dead” (Wheelis, 2).

A number of the people of Caffa fled the city in four merchant ships which (U) ****************** (go- S.P.) first to Sicily, then Marseilles and Valencia, spreading the plague at each stop. From these ports, other infected people then spread it elsewhere until people were dying across Europe, Britain, and even in Ireland where ships from Europe (V) ***************** (dock- Past. Perf.) for trade.​
