         <description><![CDATA[<p>A witch fever lasted about 14 months, lasting from 1645 to 1646. A very important man named Matthew Hopkins came to help with the witch fever. He killed women who he thought were witches. He killed 68 people, and hanged 19 on just one single day. He was paid to get rid of witches everywhere. There was a woman named Mary Sutton of Bedford, and she was tested to see if she was a witch. They tested her by putting her on water. If she floated, she was guilty and a witch. If she sunk, then she was innocent. She then floated, but she was not a witch, but the villagers did not believe her. 400 years from today, it was pretty reasonable for people to kill women who they thought were witches. </p>]]></description>

         <title>The Chain of Being</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>People in Shakespeare’s time were highly superstitious, influencing their beliefs about religion, witches, and medicine. Christianity dominated England, and religious conflicts led to persecution. The Great Chain of Being dictated social hierarchy, with the king ruling by divine right. Disturbing this order, like in <em>Macbeth</em>, was believed to cause chaos.</p><p>Witches were feared and often blamed for misfortunes. Accused women faced cruel tests, and laws made witch-hunting legal. King James I, fascinated by witches, influenced Shakespeare’s inclusion of them in <em>Macbeth</em>. Fairies, like those in <em>A Midsummer Night’s Dream</em>, were also believed to cause mischief.</p><p>Medicine relied on balancing four bodily humours—blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm—which were thought to affect personality and health. Treatments included bloodletting and emetics. Many of Shakespeare’s characters reflect these humoural types. Superstitions from this era, such as avoiding ladders and blessing sneezes, still persist today.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>1585 to 1592 are referred to as Shakespeare's Lost Years. This is because no none knew where he went during that time. There were plenty of interesting theories to say the least including but not limited to: Shakespeare poaching deer from Sir Thomas Lucy's estate and to escape punishment he fled to London which is where he actually appeared in 1592. Another less crazy theory is that he was employed as a lawyer clerk or became a soldier. However, another more plausible theory is that he helped with a family business. Despite all of these theories there has been no real evidence or explanation as to why Shakespeare mysteriously disappeared for 7 years. The reason as to why I chose this topic is because it shows that the media was just as observant on celebrities back during this time period.</p>]]></description>
