Plague is one of the most impressive diseases in the cultural history of mankind. Its lethality has influenced the evolution of society and it is frequently represented in fine arts and literature. The principality of Transylvania was also affected by this infection, the plague having strongly impacted both economic and social development. Between 1738 and 1739 an important plague epidemic spread in Transylvania. The authors introduce and discuss a less known work on this epidemic, with focus on its impact on the city of Cluj - a book written in 1930 by Dr. Alexandru Lenghel, who later became a target of political persecution during the Stalinist period, while his work entered a cone of shadow.
鼠疫是人类文化史上最引人注目的疾病之一。其致死性影响了社会的发展，且在美术和文学作品中屡有体现。特兰西瓦尼亚公国也曾受到这种传染病的影响，鼠疫对其经济和社会发展产生了重大冲击。1738年至1739年间，一场严重的鼠疫疫情在特兰西瓦尼亚蔓延。作者介绍并讨论了一部关于这场疫情的鲜为人知的作品，重点讲述了其对克卢日市的影响——这是亚历山德鲁·伦盖尔博士于1930年撰写的一本书，他后来在斯大林时期成为政治迫害的对象，而他的作品也因此被尘封。
