HITO 192 Senior Seminar: Plague Diaries
Records of the personal diaries of those who have lived through past epidemics have proved to be invaluable resources for historians eager to reconstruct daily life during periods of intense social, political, and cultural change. In this seminar, students will read four plague diaries of eyewitnesses to the Plague of Athens (Thucydides), Black Death in 17th century England (Samuel Pepys); HIV/AIDS in poor and marginalized communities of color in the US (Gil Cuadros) and Covid-19 in 21st century Wuhan, China (Fang Fang). We will discuss plague diaries as a literary genre and historical source, and consider the unique insight this form of eye witnessing lends to our understanding of the history of public health.
