Summary/Abstract: The review of the book of the Croatian historian Gordan Ravancic «Vrijeme umiranja. Crna smrt u Dubrovniku 1348.-1349.» (Zagreb: Croatian Institute for History, 2010. 240 p.). The book examines and analyses the plague epidemic that struck Dubrovnik in 1348. The author of the review notes the complex character of Ravancic’s book, its innovatory approach to the study of a number of historical problems, and its importance for the study of both the epidemic of 1348, which is known to be one of the most terrible disasters of the Middle Ages, and the history of medieval Dubrovnik as well as the history of medieval everyday life.
