The Black Death and the 14th Century's greatest catastrophe explored with Dr. Helen Carr. In this episode, Dan Snow dives into the "Calamitous 14th Century," a period defined by the Great Famine, ceaseless deluges, and the arrival of Yersinia pestis. We trace the plague’s journey from the Mongol Empire and the Silk Roads to the port cities of Italy and the shores of Dorset, revealing how a biological phenomenon intersected with medieval politics and military sieges to wipe out nearly 60% of Europe's population. Dr. Helen Carr challenges the "Dark Age" myth, highlighting the humanity, empathy, and artistic shifts that emerged from the rubble of the pandemic. From the rise of the "Momento Mori" cult and the Flagellants to the economic empowerment of the peasant class and the "Golden Age" for women, we examine how the survivors rebuilt a fractured world. Discover the grisly reality of bubos, the origins of quarantine, and the lasting legacy of the Black Death on the modern Western world.
