This work redresses the imbalance in scholarship by examining social and economic life at mid-fourteenth century, particularly during the epidemic of plague, the Black Death of 1348. Arguing against medieval chroniclers' accounts of massive social, political, and religious breakdown, this examination of the immediate experience of the epidemic, based on notarial records--including over a thousand testaments--demonstrates resilience during the crisis. The notarial record reveals the activities and decisions of large numbers of individuals and families in the city and provides a reconstruction of the behavior of clergy, medical practitioners, government and neighborhood officials, and notaries during the epidemic.Medieval Mediterranean ;v. 83.Black DeathSocial aspectsItalyBolognaHistoryBlack DeathSocial aspectsItalyBolognaHistorySourcesNotariesItalyBolognaHistoryTo 1500WillsItalyBolognaHistoryTo 1500City and town lifeItalyBolognaHistoryTo 1500Community lifeItalyBolognaHistoryTo 1500ParishesItalyBolognaHistoryTo 1500Bologna (Italy)HistoryTo 1506Bologna (Italy)Social conditionsBologna (Italy)Economic conditionsBlack DeathSocial aspectsHistory.Black DeathSocial aspectsHistoryNotariesHistoryWillsHistoryCity and town lifeHistoryCommunity lifeHistoryParishesHistory614.5/7320945411Wray Shona Kelly1704825MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910826023903321Communities and crisis4102490UNINA
