About This Project

A Journal of the Plague Year: An Archive of Covid-19 was initiated by Catherine O’Donnell, Richard Amesbury, and Mark Tebeau in the School for Historical, Philosophical, and Religious Studies at Arizona State University.  The archive was seeded by funding from the public history endowment at Arizona State University, endowed by Noel Stowe.  The project has emerged as a curatorial consortium that includes faculty and graduate students from around the United States and now the world. 

Additional and sigificant funding for curators and design has been provided by Arizona State University: the Humanities Dean of the College for Liberal Arts & Sciences; the School of Historical, Philosophical, and Religious Studies; the Institute for Humanities Research; and the Center for the Study of Religion and Conflict through the Luce Foundation.
