The Villainy of Dancing
In the 16th century, Alsace was a goodly-pinch of the Holy Roman Empire, and straddled what is now modern-day France and Germany. It was host to one of the more perplexing medical mysteries in history.
Dancing Plague
Strasbourg, lurking ominiously on the banks of the Rhine river, was a busy commercial and social hub in the 1500s. It had a beautiful Gothic cathedral, and a prominent university.
Despite this prosperous veneer, the city, like much of Europe, was prone to frequent bouts of famine and disease, the relentless ebb and flow of which played heavily on the collective psyche of its inhabitants, influencing their deeply-rooted religious and superstitious beliefs.
In July of 1518, these everyday scenes were disrupted by an extraordinary spectacle when a woman by the name of Frau Troffea, commenced a fervent, relentless dance in the streets of Strasbourg.
Not a lot is known about Frau Troffea beyond her involvement with the start of the Dancing Plague. She is likely to have been of 'common class', a working woman. No further information about her age, profession, family status, or personal history is given in any historical sources.
To call this 'dancing' is perhaps charitable. Her movements were more akin to distress than rhythm and gaiety. She did, however, stay largely in one place, and did not collapse to the ground as if having some kind of fit.
The peculiar display was also no brief interlude. Troffea danced and danced, day and night. Whether anyone tried to help her is uncertain, but prevailing beliefs would likely have made almost everyone give her a wide berth.
As days turned into a week, the spectacle took an alarming turn.
Frau Troffea was no longer alone. Thirty-four others had joined her, apparently compelled by the same strange urge. By the month's end, this dancing mania had ensnared around 400 people.
As the dancing epidemic spiralled, individuals began succumbing to heart attacks, strokes, and extreme exhaustion. Some, it is said, even danced themselves to death. Nothing was stopping the bizarre behaviour short of collapse or death.
Explanations, shaped by the religious and superstitious landscape of the time, flew from medical and religious people... many of whom had travelled significant distances to see the strange sight.
Some proffered theories of demonic possession, divine punishment, or an imbalance of the bodily humours, leading to overheated blood.
Academic and religious debates were had to determine the best course of action to stop the problem... and oddly, it was decided that the affected people would only recover by dancing the 'mania' out of their systems.
Musicians were enlisted to provide a relentless beat, and a wooden stage was erected. However, these measures seemed only to result in more 'victims'... more dancers... more collapses, and more death.
In modern times, theories have ranged from mass psychogenic illness, a collective manifestation of psychological stress, to the physical effects of 'ergotism'. The latter theory suggests the ingestion of ergot, a hallucinogenic mould that grows on damp rye, might have caused the mania.
Ergotism was an ancient problem. Also known as St. Anthony’s Fire, it resulted in convulsions, muscle spasms, vomiting, hallucinations, and a gangrenous pain where the victim’s limbs, fingers, toes, and nose were “eaten up by the holy fire that blackened like charcoal”.
Julius Caesar lost legions of soldiers to ergot poisoning during his campaigns in Gaul. Europe between 900-1300AD was absolutely rife with it, and over 25,000 people died as a result.
However, if the dancers of the 1518 event were indeed suffering from ergotism, it's strange that contemporary medical accounts don't describe the characteristic symptoms. Instead, they focus largely on the compulsive dancing and associated physical exhaustion.
Unfortunately, the historical accounts do not provide a lot of detail about the process of recovery, though it seems clear that a good number simply stopped dancing and left.
Historical records do state that most of those affected eventually stopped dancing and survived, although the ordeal left them physically and mentally exhausted.
By September 1518, the plague was deemed 'over', and its like has not been seen again in Europe.
"The events of 1518, viewed in conjunction with the wider historical record, suggest that the afflicted were engaged in a supernatural struggle, their punishing marathon triggered by the profound belief that God had cursed them to dance. Dancing plagues, then, were not the first resort of desperate and gullible people. They were the final recourse of communities that had been visited by almost every kind of catastrophe, psychological, economic, and meteorological." - Waller, J. (2008). "A Time to Dance, A Time to Die: The Extraordinary Story of the Dancing Plague of 1518".

2025.01.20 05:31 rated5 I think my LDR GF is dating another guy?

I've recently found out my LDR may be dating another guy via her IG. I thought I'd have a look for once, and I see a story where she's having dinner and watching a movie. With what looks to be a guy, the top half of the dinner photo is cut off, but I see an Adams apple and those hands don't look female. She hasn't told me anything and it explains the cold texts lately and lack of effort.
I kind of feel like I need more concrete evidence, but I feel I'm 90% sure that's a guy she must be dating. Is there somewhere I can post pictures to confirm I'm not wrong?

2025.01.20 05:31 Eazie520 Belly swelling

Hello! I had a robotic laproscopic hysterectomy on 1/10. Removed everything but my ovaries. Im getting so frustrated with how my belly looks right now. The bloat/swelling has definitely gone down, but it still looks a little swollen and I can feel like there’s fluid build up under the incisions. I know it’s part of healing but how long did it take for your belly to return to normal??? It’s messing with my head and I can’t workout. I’ve gained 3lbs since the surgery and I am dying inside

2025.01.20 05:31 Strong-Priority-2311 How to deal with work life balance and prioritizing multiple things?

Why do some people feel that they "need" to be successful no matter the cost. For example, someone who loves somebody else but feels they can't be in a relationship because they "need" to be better than average when it comes to success and achieving that success, despite that relationship making them extremely happy. Money is known to not be the leading cause of happiness so why chase after something that in the end, they know won't fulfill them? They struggle with balancing work/life, and prioritizing multiple things and feel like the relationship needs to be on the chopping block to really reach their goal without "distractions" but, they will regret it when the relationship is gone. This, in turn, causes them MORE stress. How does someone fix this cycle of wanting the relationship but feeling like they can't have it? Why does someone feel they need to be the best and reach a certain level of success for comfort? How do you break the tunnel vision of needing success in order to understand the consequences and future regret of ending a relationship they were happy and In love in?

2025.01.20 05:31 noxsyndicate [MICHIGAN] Unemployment Benefits Question

I tried to change my direct deposit information, and the system denied it right after I sent the request, I'm trying to change it because my bank account is negative and will eat my benefit because I had to overdraft to survive (I'm homeless). I'm trying to change it to my cash app account, but it denies that. Does anyone know why?

2025.01.20 05:31 Beginning_Mastodon_4 Looking for 11/15/1978 Changing of the Guard bootleg

Hello all, huge Dylan head and first time poster here. I was wondering if anyone knew where to find a bootleg of the 11/15/1978 show at the Forum in Los Angeles. The Jokermen reference a performance of Changing of the Guards (my favorite Dylan song), which I have narrowed down to this date. They play a snippet of it and it’s magnetic. I haven’t had any luck finding anything other than a record of the setlist but I was wondering if anyone had a good idea of where to look? I appreciate anyone’s help and not sure if I just don’t know how to look for it. Either way, thanks!
