A compelling and revisionist account of the economic, literary and social history of Florence in the immediate aftermath of the Black Death. Organised around Petrarch's 'war' against the Ubaldini of 1349–1350, by connecting warfare with the plague narrative, William Caferro offers an important contribution to the history of Renaissance Florence.
