概要
Faith in a Time of Plague — Religious Remedies During the Black Death
Medieval Morsels Podcast
When the Black Death swept across Europe in the fourteenth century, medicine failed—but faith did not disappear. Instead, it intensified.
In this episode of Medieval Morsels, we explore how medieval people turned to religion as their last line of defense against the plague. From public processions and relic veneration to prayer manuals, flagellant movements, and saintly intercession, faith became both comfort and cure.
You’ll discover why certain saints were believed to protect against disease, how churches transformed into centers of hope and fear, and how communities tried to restore meaning when death felt unstoppable. We’ll also examine the darker consequences of religious panic, including scapegoating, social division, and spiritual terror.
This episode reveals how belief shaped survival in a world without medical answers—and how faith itself became a form of medicine.
Follow Medieval Morsels for bite-sized history that uncovers the strange, powerful, and deeply human world of the Middle Ages.
