Essays address plague and disease in the fifteenth century, as
manifested throughout Europe. Described as "a golden age of
pathogens", the long fifteenth century was notable for a series of
international, national and regional epidemics that had a profound
effect upon the fabric of society. The impact of pestilence upon
the literary, religious, social and political life of men, women
and children throughout Europe and beyond continues to excite
lively debate among historians, as the ten papers presented in this
volume confirm. They deal with theresponse of urban communities in
England, France and Italy to matters of public health, governance
and welfare, as well as addressing the reactions of the medical
profession to successive outbreaks of disease, and of individuals
to the omnipresence of death, while two, very different, essays
examine the important, if sometimes controversial, contribution now
being made by microbiologists to our understanding of the Black
Death. Contributors: J.L. Bolton, Elma Brenner, Samuel Cohn, John
Henderson, Neil Murphy, Elizabeth Rutledge, Samantha Sagui, Karen
Smyth, Jane Stevens Crawshaw, Sheila Sweetinburgh.
