Contributions of black death to the rise of capitalism

Answer»

Answer:    The Black Death was the LARGEST demographic disaster in European history. From its arrival in Italy in LATE 1347 through its clockwise MOVEMENT across the continent to its PETERING out in the Russian hinterlands in 1353, the magna pestilencia (great pestilence) killed between seventeen and twenty—eight million people. Its gruesome symptoms and deadliness have fixed the Black Death in popular imagination; moreover, uncovering the disease’s cultural, social, and economic impact has engaged generations of SCHOLARS. Despite growing understanding of the Black Death’s effects, definitive assessment of its role as historical watershed remains a work in progress
