SUMMARY:Avoiding Plague like the Plague: Some Pathogenic Context for Late Antique Pandemics
DESCRIPTION:Pandemics in the Past: from Prehistory to (almost) the Present \nPlague gets a lot of attention. It’s earned\, but it’s important to keep in mind that no outbreak of Yersinia pestis\, premodern or not\, has ever occurred in a vacuum. In late antiquity and early modernity\, plague occurred alongside a multitude of infectious diseases\, both old and new. Crucially\, the aggregate demographic toll (in either period) of those diseases\, both endemic and epidemic\, may have rivalled that of plague. This paper attempts to tease out some epidemiological context for first-pandemic plague. It focuses in particular on diseases resembling malaria and smallpox\, and emphasizes the importance of collaborative multidisciplinarity when pursuing the premodern history of pathogenic disease. \nSeminar series of  the Program in Medieval Studies and the Climate Change and History Research Initiative\, supported by  Humanities Council. \nFor registration and Zoom ID\, go to: https://princeton.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIvcu2orj4qGdTIMPLIUXSDCDmbtoxOZ2wd \n
