The Plague :

The Plague explores the profound changes and enduring continuities that shaped European society in the wake of the Black Death and other crises of the 1300s. Through a series of thematic chapters, the book examines the resilience of communities, the evolution of social and economic structures, the persistence of faith, and the seeds of cultural and intellectual transformation. Far from being an age of unmitigated darkness, the fourteenth century emerges as a dynamic period of adaptation, creativity, and the quiet beginnings of the modern world.
