This essay focuses on reconstruction of three epidemics of plague broken out in Mantua between the Fifteenth and Sixteenth century. Through the use of many archival sources (included many unpublished) I tried to reconstruct the demographic, economic, social and institutional impact of this disease on urban population and I analyzed in detail how the town health authorities handled the problem and if their intervention gave good results.

Abstract
This essay focuses on reconstruction of three epidemics of plague broken out in Mantua between the Fifteenth and Sixteenth century. Through the use of many archival sources (included many unpublished) I tried to reconstruct the demographic, economic, social and institutional impact of this disease on urban population and I analyzed in detail how the town health authorities handled the problem and if their intervention gave good results.
