A brief introduction to the Power of the Plague
The Great Plague of 1348 was one of the worst events in European history. Historian Volker Reinhart retraces the course of the epidemic from its start in Asia to its temporary demise in Europe, showing the different conditions in selected cities and asking questions about how survivors managed the massive death toll, politically and economically, religiously and artistically. His gripping panoramas vividly show what we have to thank for medical advancements - and how our response to pandemics today is strikingly similar to that of the past.
