It started in 1346 and ended in the 19th centuryThe Black Death (also known as the Black Plague) was a plague (most likely bubonic) that swept across Europe between 1347 and 1351. It is estimated that over 75 million people died of the Plague while it was in Europe and Asia.As with most potentially fatal diseases, after everyone has been exposed to the illness the survivors will fall into two categories: those who came down with the illness and recovered and those who have a natural immunity.After the Bubonic Plague ran it's course, people had either built up an immunity because their systems had successfully fought off the disease, or they had a natural immunity. Either way, that particular disease became far less visible.In Medieval England, the Black Death was to kill 1.5 million people out of an estimated total of 4 million people between 1348 and 1350. No medical knowledge existed in Medieval England to cope with the disease. After 1350, it was to strike England another six times by the end of the century. Understandably, peasants were terrified at the news that the Black Death might be approaching their village or town.The Black Death is the name given to a disease called the bubonic plague which was rampant during the Fourteenth Century. In fact, the bubonic plague affected England more than once in that century but its impact on English society from 1348 to 1350 was terrible.The Black Death was caused by fleas carried by rats that were very common in towns and cities. The fleas bit into their victims literally injecting them with the disease. Death could be very quick for the weaker victims.
The lives of all medieval Europeans were tied to the fortunes of agriculture. In the twelfth and thirteenth centuries a gradually warming climate lengthened the growing season in northern Europe, making it possible to grow more grain even on less arable land. This trend was reversed at the end of the thirteenth century and in the fourteenth century the European mainland became progressively colder. This caused changes in rainfall patterns, shortened the growing seasons and lessened the productivity of cereal agriculture. Europe's vulnerability to climatic change came in 1315 during the great famine in northern Europe.
Black plague
It was called the plague. The particular form of plague in the 16th and 17th century was called the "pneumonic plague" which affects the lungs and results in coughing as well as bloody vomit.

I think you mixed up the term Black Death and bubonic plague. Its not plaque. Assuming you meant the bubonic plague, it was not restricted to England. The whole of Europe and central Asia were victims to its merciless ravage. It happened in the fourteenth century.
The monopoly on cities trading of the fourteenth century did affect the urban life.
Shakespeare was not a fourteenth century author. He was born in the late sixteenth century and became one of the most famous playwrights in history.
