  14. Symptoms of the plague

  15. How was the plague transmitted? We now know that the most common form of the Black Death was the BUBONIC PLAGUE! This disease was spread by fleas which lived on the black rat. The fleas sucked the rat’s blood which contained the plague germs. When the rat died the fleas jumped on to humans and passed on the deadly disease.

  16. The Symptoms Bulbous Septicemic Form:almost 100% mortality rate.

  17. Lancing a Buboe

  18. Effects of the Plague- • Population declined • Trade declined • Serfs left to find a better living • Jews were blamed for the plague • Church lost prestige when their prayers failed to stop the plague

  19. Ring around the rosy, Pockets full of posy, Ashes, ashes We all fall down.

  20. Ring around the rosie • “Ring around the Rosie” • Refers to a red mark, supposedly the first sign of the plague • “A pocket full of posies” • Refers to sachets of herbs carried to ward off infection • “Ashes, ashes” • Either a reference to the cremation of plague victims or to the words said in the funeral Mass..."Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." • “We all fall down.” • Death: the plague was not selective in its victims; both rich and poor, young and old, succumbed.

  21. The Hundreds Year War • Edward III launched a war for the French throne that was fought off and on from 1337 to 1453 • During this time the French pushed the English out of France • The Hundred Years’ War brought a change in the style of warfare in Europe • Longbow allowed for thousands of arrows to be rained down upon the French by archers

  22. A Struggle for National Identity France was NOT a united country before the war began. The French king only controlled about half of the country.

  23. The Longbow as a Weapon • The use of the English defensive position was the use of the longbow. • Its arrows had more penetrating power than a bolt from a crossbow. • Could pierce an inch of wood or the armor of a knight at 200 yards! • A longbow could be fired more rapidly. • 6 arrows per minute.

  24. Joan of Arc (1412-1432) • The daughter of prosperous peasants from an area of Burgundy that had suffered under the English. • Like many medieval mystics, she reported regular visions of divine revelation. • Her “voices” told her to go to the king and assist him in driving out the English. • She dressed like a man and was Charles’ most charismatic and feared military leader!

  25. Joan of Arc • 1429- Joan a young peasant girl felt a call from God to rescue France from English conquerors • She led them to victory in the battle near Orleans • Charles VII was crowned king • She was captured by the English and handed over to the church • Charles did nothing to help her and she was burned as a witch

  26. Impact of the Hundreds’ Year War- • Feeling of nationalism emerges in England and France • Power of the French monarchy increases • War of the Roses in England where two families fought for the throne • End of the Hundreds’ Year War = the End of the Middle Ages • b/c religious devotion and code of chivalry crumbled

  27. The Impact of the Hundred Years War • End of Hundred Years War=end of the “Middle Ages” • Religious devotion and chivalry crumble • Great schism • Display of wealth by the church • Discrediting church during plague
