- Resum
- The authors wish to correct an error on page 176 in Volume 65, Issue 2 produced due to a misinterpretation of a passage in Ibn Shākir al-Kutubī's chronicle. The authors missed the fact that, in the translated passage on the plague outbreaks in Samarqand and central Asia cited in footnote 96, Ibn Shākir was not referring to the plague outbreaks of 1349 but rather was quoting from the earlier work of Sibṭ ibn al-Jawzī (d. 1256) regarding the plague outbreak of 1057 CE. The sentence corresponding to footnote 96 and the footnote itself should be amended as follows:
Ibn al-Wardī's widely influential account (early 1349) of plague afflicting virtually all parts of Asia initiated a narrative of a fast, westward movement of plague from Central Asia to the Black Sea in the fourteenth century that has extended up to the present day
