Résumé
My intention in this article is to contribute to ongoing reflections on the spectacularity of catastrophes, in particular that spectacularity which most affected, and on the largest scale, human and social bodies, as it was envisaged before the eighteenth century, at the margins of the great hyperbolic machines, like columns, votive churches, ceremonies and commemorations, which have inscribed the memory of the plague in the heart of most European cities.
