Webinar - After the Plague: Insights from Ancient, Medieval and Early Modern History

10 June 2020 6:00pm7:00pm
Each pandemic throughout history has brought suffering and civil unrest, but in their wake has come a blossoming of art, literature and new ideas. These upheavals have forced people to rethink the world around them, leading to some of history’s most influential and challenging cultural works. As we look towards our post-COVID-19 society, we are likely to see more than just a recovery of the 2019 world, but something completely new. UQ historians will come together to discuss what has come after plagues throughout ancient, medieval and early modern history and what it may mean for our world today.
