An Audience with Queen Elizabeth I, 1597 The Black Death, 1348 Printer Friendly Version >>> C oming out of the East, the Black Death reached the shores of Italy in the spring of 1348 unleashing a rampage of death across Europe unprecedented in recorded history. By the time the epidemic played itself out three years later, anywhere between 25% and 50% of Europe's population had fallen victim to the pestilence. The plague presented itself in three interrelated forms. The bubonic variant (the most common) derives its name from the swellings or buboes that appeared on a victim's neck, armpits or groin. These tumors could range in size from that of an egg to that of an apple. Although some survived The Plague's Progress the painful ordeal, the manifestation of these lesions usually signaled the victim had a life expectancy of up to a week. Infected fleas that attached themselves to rats and then to humans spread this bubonic type of the plague. A second variation - pneumonic plague - attacked the respiratory system and was spread by merely breathing the exhaled air of a victim. It was much more virulent than its bubonic cousin - life expectancy was measured in one or two days. Finally, the septicemic version of the disease attacked the blood system. Having no defense and no understanding of the cause of the pestilence, the men, women and children caught in its onslaught were bewildered, panicked, and finally devastated.

Inicio Buscador Las figuras clave de la historia Reportajes Los protagonistas de la actualidad Giovanni Boccaccio (?, 1313-Certaldo, actual Italia, 1375) Escritor italiano. Hijo natural del mercader y banquero florentino Boccaccio da Chellino, agente de la poderosa compañía financiera de los Bardi, no conoció la identidad de su madre. Las leyendas que el propio Boccaccio se encargó de difundir acerca de su vida no permiten determinar si nació en París, Certaldo o Florencia. Lo cierto es que creció en esta última ciudad, en el barrio de San Pietro Maggiore, y fue educado por Giovanni Mazzuoli da Strada, quien le inculcó la pasión por Dante que lo dominaría toda su vida. Tras demostrar escasas aptitudes para las finanzas y el comercio, fue enviado por su padre a Nápoles, donde adquirió una sólida formación literaria gracias a las enseñanzas de los más ilustres eruditos de la corte napolitana: Paolo da Perugia y Andalo Delnevo. Lo que más le impresionó del ambiente napolitano fueron el refinamiento y la voluptuosidad que reinaban en la corte de los Anjou, en la cual convergían las culturas italiana, bizantina y árabe. En ese contexto de intrigas y ambiciones cortesanas, amores prohibidos y sensualidad se sitúa su obra maestra

The said count had one little son, and no more, hight Bertrand, who was exceeding handsome and agreeable, and with him other children of his own age were brought up.
