Culture Corner Features In the Wake of the Plague

The Life of the Mind reading selection In the Wake of the Plague: the Black Death and the World it Made is the center of the University Libraries fall 2007 Culture Corner exhibit

The University Libraries joins the university’s celebration of the Medieval semester with the In the Wake of the Plague Culture Corner exhibit. The exhibit includes books available for check-out, databases and Web sites, documentaries, reference books and music. The Pendergrass Ag-VetMed Library created a list of books and selected articles about the subject, and the Medieval and Renaissance Studies subject guide is also available.

These resources provide further insight into the life and customs of Europe during the Middle Ages. Some materials also focus on the impact of widespread epidemics or pandemics, both historical and contemporary.
