"The Medieval Plague and its Economic Aftermath" by Ryan Evans explores the profound and lasting impacts of the Black Death on Europe's economy and social structures. The book delves into how the catastrophic loss of life between 1347 and 1351 disrupted established systems of labor, agriculture, and commerce, leading to significant changes in the medieval economic order. It examines the rise of wage labor, the decline of feudalism, the reorganization of trade networks, and the transformation of urban and rural economies. Evans analyzes the shifting power dynamics between the aristocracy and the emerging merchant class, as well as the evolving relationship between laborers and landowners. Through a detailed historical lens, the book also explores the social unrest, cultural shifts, and intellectual movements that followed the plague, culminating in the early stages of the Renaissance. Drawing on primary sources, economic data, and historical commentary, The Medieval Plague and its Economic Aftermath offers a comprehensive analysis of how one of the most devastating pandemics in history reshaped Europe's political and economic landscape.
