The impact of the Black Death on London

The impact of the Black Death, which decimated Europe's population in the 14th century, is compared to the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. This seminar paper explores how both pandemics have profoundly influenced societal structures, economies, and cultural norms. By examining the historical context of the Black Death, the author draws parallels to the current crisis, suggesting that just as the Plague led to significant transformations, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to reshape modern society in lasting ways.
