I've written a book about climate and history since this January.
It will be released next year.
I'm currently working on the Medieval Age in Western History.
Reading datum, I find that the times wasn't dark as I thought.
In the Medieval warm period, people were blessed by God enjoying their lives
( Gothic catheral and stained glass require much money )
I learned that the last period was dark due to Little ice age and Black Death.
Beore this project, I thought that the whole times was gloomy.
And there're interesting things for me.
For example, Black Death reminded me a German traditional fairy tale, 'Pied Piper of Hamelin'
In the story, people suffered from plenty of rats.
A man asked a money in return for the mouse control. The village men gave a promised to him.
When he lured rats away with his magic pipe, they refused to pay for him for his service.
The rat-catcher takes revenge on them by using his instrument's magical power on their children, leading them away as he had the rats.
In my opinion, he is a symbol of hope to the people attacked by plague.
he drove the rats from Hamelin, saving the people from the epidemic.
Rat flea has been regarded as a host of Black Death
At first version of this story, rats don't show. Later the animal is added to the story.
Some scholars proposed that the man brought the children to Eastern Europe.
In the area, there're short of labors and safe from the epidemic relatively with Western Europe.
and I found Black Death is a symbol of the Dark Age related to Black Death.
Before this study, I didn't know the meaning.
Writing a book, I become active and positive.
Have a good day. ^^;;
ps. If you find any suggestion in my English writing, feel free to let me know them.
I want to get better writting by steemit.
