Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England. There is some respite at the end of the reign: the law against eating meat on Wednesdays is repealed in . At the same time, there is a general slackening of fish-eating and an increase in the consumption of meat. By the 1590s most wealthy households have dropped the strict Lenten fast and replaced it with a reduced-meat diet. In 1593 the government bows to the inevitable and reduces the punitive £3 fine to £1. Now many households begin to eat meat in Lent and on Fridays and Saturdays, if the head of the household wishes to do so, even though it is still technically against the law. The details from this excerpt support the inference that meat was consumed only by wealthy Elizabethans. many Elizabethans resisted the idea of eating more meat. fish was still a more common staple than meat in Elizabethan diets. Elizabethans’ attitude toward eating meat was becoming more relaxed.

all the complex sentences begin with a subordinating conjunction and when it occurs, a comma must be place at the end of the dependent clause. on the contrary, if the sentence begins with an independent clause, then no comma is used.

boccaccio employs the voice of his narrator dioneo to represent his ideas on the tension between masculinity and femininity.  while dioneo excites the members of the brigata and recognizes women for their unique skills and independent ideas, he concludes the decameron with a story reminiscent of the society from which these young aristocrats escaped, revealing misogynistic overtones.  dioneo boccaccio is able to explore the gender disparity which is inherent in 14th century florentine society.
