| Summary | "A Succinct Account of the Plague at Marseilles" by Chicoyneau, Soulier, and Verny is a historical account written in the early 18th century. This work provides detailed observations and medical insights regarding the outbreak of the plague that struck the city of Marseilles. The book aims to inform medical professionals about the symptoms of the plague and the methods and remedies used during the epidemic. In this account, the authors, who were physicians sent from Paris, categorize the patients' symptoms into five classes, detailing the progression of the disease from initial signs to potential outcomes. Each class represents a different set of symptoms and responses to treatment, from patients who rapidly succumb to the illness to those who experience milder forms of infection. The physicians document their experiences and the remedies they prescribed, noting the varying degrees of success. Their observations highlight the challenges faced in treating the afflicted, the psychological impact of the disease on patients, and the importance of community support in mitigating the effects of the plague.
