Mary: - The other day I was reading an interesting article on “the Black Death.” Tony: - You mean the terrible plague that devastated Europe in the 14th century? Mary: - ---- Tony: - Also throughout villages, towns and cities. As a result, the population of Europe was cut nearly in half.

Right. I didn't know that its effects were worst in confined places like hospitals, prisons, and monasteries. |
|
According to a contemporary account, the city of Florence lost 96,000 people between March and October of 1348. |
|
European men and women were convinced that the plague had been sent as a divine punishment. |
|
However, as one learns from the article, the plague did not last long, but actually began to dissipate by 1351. |

I feel that more study must be made of the social and political impact the plague had on medieval Europe in general. |
