While the Statute of Laborers and the Peasants' Revolt dominate discussions of medieval crisis, the medical response to the Black Death remains a shadowy chapter. This episode explores the desperate, often futile efforts of the papal physicians in Avignon during the height of the plague in 1348. We examine the bizarre treatments prescribed by the College of Medicine of Paris, including the boiling of aromatic woods and the use of precious stones, alongside the more pragmatic quarantine measures adopted by Italian city-states like Ragusa and Venice. Through the letters of Giovanni Boccaccio and the administrative records of Pope Clement VI, we reconstruct the terrifying atmosphere of the papal court as it tried to protect its own while Europe burned. Lucas and Luna discuss the clash between Galenic humoral theory and emerging empirical observation, revealing how these early failures laid the groundwork for modern epidemiology. #BlackDeath #PlagueOf1348 #PapalCourt #Avignon #PopeClementVI #GiovanniBoccaccio #CollegeOfMedicine #QuarantineHistory #Ragusa #Venice #GalenicMedicine #HumoralTheory #MedievalEpidemiology #HistoricalMedicine #14thCenturyEurope #MedicalHistory #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
