"Historians will tell you the Black Death spread through fleas, through rats, through trade routes that carried more than goods between cities.

They will tell you it moved quickly, that it devastated populations, that entire households could fall within days.

They will not tell you how people knew it had already begun.

Not officially."

Then the illness had already taken hold." #blackplague #horror #rats #plague #sickness #epidemic #thebutcheredwriterssubstack

"People love repeating counterintuitive factoids. People do not love conducting deep historical research to check whether clever-sounding factoids are actually true. A common one is that the Black Death supercharged Europe’s economy. This is false.
....
Other pandemics did not go along with rising prosperity, because they did not arrive in the middle of unrelated economic transformations."

What a Balem is? A Nibiru particle.... one ounce of black plague in giftwrapping and if it fornicates or procreates with the coloncancer species it may be exterminated, it became redundant.

I am loving the show The Decameron. It feels pretty much perfect. It's baudy and darkly hilarious. No, I haven't read the original. Medieval Italian literature isn't my forte. #TheDecameron #BlackPlague #plague #tv

@Knightky and I listen to audiobooks on long road trips. This time, we listened to Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman. What at first seems like a basic Middle Ages historical book turns into some seriously wild dark fantasy. I imagined a wackadoo anime for certain scenes. It features a disgraced knight, a naive orphan, and a gay priest on a mysterious quest. Set in France during the time of the Black Plague and the crusades, it portrays religious beliefs and superstitions of the time as literal phenomena. I think Buehlman is my new favourite author. Not sure how I hadn't encountered his books before this year. #bookstodon #fantasy #MedievalFantasy #BlackPlague #crusades #SpeculativeFiction #Normandy #ChristopherBuehlman

Did you know that during the time of the #BlackPlague gangs of thousands of #flagellant #Catholics roamed the countrysides in Europe? Daily they would bloody themselves as penance to God, but then also kill non-flagellants like the Jewish populations.

#Vss365 (#Gardener's version)

In 1812, the Brothers #Grimm told of #Folklore's Frau #Berchta, an #Alpine #Goddess.

The 5 #Petals of the #White #Christmas #Rose (#Helleborus niger) #Bloomed #Iridescent in her tracks. Berchta means #Luminous.

Niger refers to the #Black #Roots which were used to make a #Poultice during the #BlackPlague.

Berchta visited homes #Between #Christmas & #TwelfthNight to #Bless #Good children w/ #Gold coins & #Punish the #Naughty by stuffing their #Stomach-s w/ straw.
