Summary

The book discusses all five cholera epidemics that hit the central Slovenian area in 1836, 1849, 1855, 1866, and 1886. It is the first synthesis of cholera epidemics and the first presentation of the health conditions in the 19th-century Carniola.Largely drawing on original archival materials, the book also provides Slovenian historiography with new and original knowledge, and substantially places itself side by side other European and American historiographical research dealing with the phenomenon of cholera epidemics in health, social, cultural and political context.
Kolera je v 19. stoletju v Evropi veljala za najhujšo nalezljivo bolezen, saj se je v primerjavi z drugimi epidemičnimi boleznimi hitreje širila med prebivalstvom in povzročala nenadne in množične smrti. Zaradi podobnosti s predhodnico iz prejšnjih stoletij so kolero pogosto poimenovali za kugo 19. stoletja. Knjiga obravnava pet epidemij kolere, ki so osrednji slovenski prostor prizadele v letih 1836, 1849, 1855, 1866 in 1886. Vsebuje tudi poglavje o dogajanjih leta 1831, ko je bolezen prvič izbruhnila v Evropi, na Kranjskem pa so epidemijo aktivno pričakovali.
