File:Pestilence spreading 1347-1351 europe.png
| Description |
English: Spreading of the en:Black Death in Europe between 1347 and 1351, apparently copied from a work called "Atlas zur Weltgeschichte" (perhaps dtv-Atlas? If so, Kinder and Hilgemann (eds.), dtv-Atlas zur Weltgeschichte was published in 35(!) editions between 1964 and 2002, and it would be crucial to know which edition we are basing this on).
The details of the map are to be taken with a large grain of salt. It is roughly compatible with this Britannica map (copy, dated 1994), but the details vary significantly. Other significant differences exist with this map (an unreferenced scan of a professional publication), where e.g. the area of Poland/Silesia marked "unaffected" in this map is part of a much larger area marked as "Area for which there is insufficient information". Here is another map with a somewhat more conservative epistemology, referenced to "insecta-inspecta.com", where it was posted in 2000 (and therefore uninfluenced by the 2005 upload of this map). An academically published map for comparison: cited to: D. Sherman and J. Salisbury, The West in the World: Volume I to 1715. McGraw-Hill, Boston, 3rd edition (2008), not necessarily better than the Britannica map, as it is a rough sketched used for the purposes of some argument about network theory, and not a medievalist publication dedicated to the history of the Black Death as such.Deutsch: Ausbreitung der de:Pest in Europa zwischen 1347 und 1351 |
