Contre l’impôt
Cet article montre que les guerres d’Italie (1494-1559) ont provoqué une forte augmentation de la fréquence et de l’importance des contestations populaires, pourtant peu mises en avant par les historiens. Les levées fiscales imposées par les nouvelles armées d’occupation et les puissances monarchiques étrangères dans toute la péninsule italienne ont constitué un élément important de cette augmentation. Les raisons de la révolte, cependant, découl…
The Dramaturgy of Epidemics
My essay focuses on Charles Rosenberg's provocative and enduring ideal type of epidemic drama in three acts, which he assembled from a vast knowledge of disease history that stretched from the end of the seventeenth century to his then-present pandemic, HIV/AIDS of the 1980s. Reaching back to the Plague of Athens, my essay elaborates on Rosenberg's dramaturgy by questioning whether blame, division, and collective violence were so universal or eve…

Pandemics
This article briefly surveys the history of pandemics in the West, contesting long-held assumptions that epidemics sparked hatred and blame of the 'Other', and that it was worse when diseases were mysterious as to their causes and cures. The article finds that blame and hate were rarely connected with pandemics in history. In antiquity, epidemics more often brought societies together rather than dividing them as continued to happen with some dise…

Piété et Commande D'œuvres D'Art Après la Peste Noire
Dans un ouvrage d'histoire interdisciplinaire tout à fait exemplaire, Millard Meiss proposait une explication au bouleversement radical de la peinture florentine et siennoise après la Peste noire. Son hypothèse a suscité depuis un débat continu, vif et fructueux, entre les historiens de l'art. Mais l'histoire littéraire, sociale et économique est peu représentée dans ce débat, bien que les arguments de Meiss lui-même aient été largement tributair…
Piety and Charity in Late Medieval Florence
The Cult of Remembrance and the Black Death
In 1363 the Black Death struck central Italy for the second time, causing a detectable shift notions of the afterlife and patterns of charitable giving. Throughout Tuscany and Umbria, patricians and peasants alike abandoned their previous practice of dividing bequests into small sums, combining them instead into last gifts to enhance their fame and glory and that of their lineages. Illustrative of the new mentality, religious art patronage spread…
