The Bubonic Plague killed many people including peasants/workers, so a lot of manor work was left neglected.
Take some antibiotics unless you want to die. Then, live life to the fullest. =)
During outbreaks of the Bubonic Plague all the theaters in London would be ordered to shut down. The chances of surviving the plague were only 50%.
They didn't have one. They'd be dead. Unless, of course, you mean in modern days. Then, you'd most likely be treated with antibiotics and you'd live your life how you wished.
Is this question from your global history textbook? lol
The plague affected normal business and life of the capital by taking out many workers, clergy and nobility, which resulted in the weakening of the fedual system of castes.
It desecrated European society. It cause people to lose hope in their current life, but it also pushed people to look towards religion for salvation and a hope for a better life after death.
life on the manor was grusom and crule!
life was different in middle ages since it was the middles ages and in manor well, it was the manor!
The Bubonic Plague sparked author Geoffrey Chaucer to examine life and society from a moralistic point of view. This is exemplified in "The Miller" one of the "Canterbury Tales." A close examination of "The Miller" reveals a deep hatred for the conventional doctrines of The Church (The Church of England) and a longing for the simpler times of the renaissance.

Frightening and bewildering. They knew it was pretty much unavoidable, and they knew they were likely going to die, but they were helpless to do anything about it. Fearing that it was a punishment from God for being sinful, they resorted to spending their days in prayer and repentance. Most thought it was the end of the world.
There really is not much of a similarity between the two besides the fact that the both caused a worldwide pandemic. The black death was caused by the bacteria Yersinia pestis, while the Spanish influenza was caused by a highly virulent strain of influenza virus (H1N1). The most common form of the black death (bubonic plague) is believed to have spread by bites from infected fleas carrying the bacteria. Pneumonic plague, which was less common by more virulent was spread through the respiratory tract. Similarly influenza is also an airborne disease, however, other than that they are completely different pathogens that occured in completely different time periods.
Plague is a serious, potentially life-threatening infectious disease that is usually transmitted to humans by the bites of rodent fleas. It was one of the scourges of our early history. There are three major forms of the disease: bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonic.
