Wоmen in the Middle Ages were оfficiаlly required tо be subordinаte to а male, whether their father, husband, or other relative. Widows were often allowed some control over their own lives, but they were still restricted legally. Women of different classes performed different activities. Rich urban women could be merchants like their husbands and middle-class women worked in the textile, inn-keeping, shop-keeping, and brewing industries. Poorer women often sold food and other merchandise in the market places or worked in richer households as domestic servants, day laborers, or laundresses. Twenty percent of women died in childbirth. For most children, the first year of life was one of the most dangerous, with as many as 50% of children dying of fatal illness. By age twelve, a child began to take on a more serious role in family duties. Peasant children stayed at home and learned domestic skills and animal husbandry. Noble boys learned skills in weaponry, and noble girls learned basic domestic skills. Marriages were often arranged. Noble girls often married at 12 years old and boys at 14. The end of childhood and entrance into adolescence was marked by leaving home and moving to the house of the employer or master, entering a university, or entering church service. _________________________________________________________________________ The Black Death arrived in Europe in October 1347, when 12 ships from the Black Sea docked at the port of Messina. Most sailors aboard the ships were dead, and those still alive were gravely ill. Over the next five years, the Black Death would kill more than 20 million people in Europe—almost one-third of the population. Physicians relied on crude and unsophisticated techniques such as bloodletting and boil-lancing and superstitious practices such as burning herbs and bathing in rosewater or vinegar. Doctors refused to see patients; priests refused to administer last rites; and shopkeepers closed their stores. Many people fled the cities for the countryside, but even there they could not escape the disease: It affected cows, sheep, goats, pigs and chickens as well as people. Many people believed that the Black Death was divine punishment for sins against God. Some people blamed marginalized communities for the plague, often leading to deadly violence against Jewish populations across Europe. Members of groups known as fllagellents whipped themselves until they bled to earn forgiveness and seek salvation. Wearing white robes, large groups- many numbering in the thousands- roamed the countryside dragging crosses while whipping themselves into a religious frenzy. Fearing the spread of violence, the Pope condemned the flagellants as a threat to Church authority and threatened them with excommunication, resulting in mass arrests and executions. QUESTIONS: 1.
