Climate and famines in the Czech Lands prior to AD 1500: Possible interconnections in a European context

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This paper addresses the three most disastrous famine episodes in the Czech Lands before AD 1500-the 1280s, 1310s and 1430s-and analyses them in both meteorological and socio-political terms. Adverse weather anomalies with harmful hydro-meteorological extremes and difficult socio-economic conditions were prerequisites for famine episodes, just as in the rest of Europe. Although times of famine occurrence and the states of the societies vary from country to country, a cascade of key phenomena are generally common to all: (a) complicated sociopolitical situations (including wars), (b) accumulation of adverse weather patterns influencing agricultural production, (c) severe-to-catastrophic failures of key agricultural crops (particularly grain) for at least two successive years, (d) direct consequences (dramatic increases in the prices of key foodstuffs, famine, consumption of poor-quality substitute diets and thus increases in vulnerability to illness, spread of disease, sharp rises in human mortality, villages abandoned, severe increases in crime).
