Read the two Muslim accounts of the Black Death ("An Altered World" and "The Catastrophe of the 14th Century") and complete the relevant parts of the chart at the end of the packet distributed today.
For each source,
- record the effects of the plague and
- how people responded to it.
We will complete the chart tomorrow. For those of you interested in the spread of the plague,
this map is useful. In addition, there is an excellent segment from the
History of Britain series that documents the effects of the Black Death in England. It is available through YouTube, divided into six parts:
part 1,
part 2,
part 3,
part 4,
part 5,
part 6
