The ways of life of four great ancient civilizations— Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and Celtic—are illuminated here through their foodways. As these cultures moved toward settled agriculture, a time of experimentation and learning began. Cities emerged, and with them consumer societies that needed to be supplied. Food Culture in the Ancient World draws on writings of classical authors such as Petronius, Galen, and Cato, as well as on archeological findings, to present intimate insight into ancient peoples. This volume will be indispensable as it complements classical history, cultural, and literature studies at the high school and college levels and will also inform the general reader. The book begins with an overview of the civilizations and their agricultural practices and trade. A full discussion of available foodstuffs describes the discovery, emergence, usage, and appraisals of a host of ingredients. A subsequent chapter covers food by civilization. Chapters on food preparation, the food professions, and eating habits provide a fascinating look at the social structure, with slaves and women preparing and serving food. Accounts of the gatherings of slaves and freedmen in taverns, inns, and bars and the notorious banquet, symposium, feast, and convivium of the elite are particularly intriguing and crucial to understanding male society. Other aspects of ancient life brought to life for the reader include food for soldiers, food in religious and funerary practices, and concepts of diet and nutrition. Many Classical recipes are interspersed with the text, along with illustrations.

In entries ranging from a few lines to a couple of pages, Andrew Dalby describes individual foodstuffs (such as catfish, gazelle, peaches and parsley), utensils, ancient writers on food, and a vast range of other topics, drawn from classical literature, history and archaeology, as well as looking at the approaches of modern scholars. Approachable, reliable and fun, this A-to-Z explains and clarifies a subject that crops up in numerous classical sources, from plays to histories and beyond. It also gives references to useful primary and secondary reading. It will be an invaluable companion for students, academics and gastronomes alike.

Widely recognized as the godfather of modern American cooking and a mentor to such rising celebrity chefs as Mario Batali, Jeremiah Tower is one of the most influential cooks of the last thirty years. Now, the former chef and partner at Chez Panisse and the genius behind Stars San Francisco tells the story of his lifelong love affair with food -- an affair that helped to spark an international culinary revolution. Tower shares with wit and honesty the real dish on cooking, chefs, celebrities, and what really goes on in the kitchen. Above all, Tower rhapsodizes about food -- the meals choreographed like great ballets, the menus scored like concertos. No other book reveals more about the seeds sown in the seventies, the excesses of the eighties, and the self-congratulations of the nineties. No other chef/restaurateur who was there at the very beginning is better positioned than Jeremiah Tower to tell the story of the American culinary revolution.

An inside look at the complex and controversial debates surrounding foie gras In the past decade, the French delicacy foie gras—the fattened liver of ducks or geese that have been force-fed through a tube—has been at the center of contentious battles. In Contested Tastes, Michaela DeSoucey takes us to farms, restaurants, protests, and political hearings in both the United States and France to reveal why people care so passionately about foie gras—and why we should care, too. Bringing together fieldwork, interviews, and materials from archives and the media on both sides of the Atlantic, DeSoucey offers a compelling look at the moral arguments and provocative actions of pro- and anti-foie gras forces. She combines personal stories with fair-minded analysis and draws our attention to the cultural dynamics of markets, the multivocal nature of “gastropolitics,” and the complexities of what it means to identify as a “moral” eater in today’s food world. Investigating the causes and consequences of the foie gras wars, Contested Tastes illuminates the social significance of food and taste in the twenty-first century.

A kitchen classic for over 35 years, and hailed by Time magazine as "a minor masterpiece" when it first appeared in 1984, On Food and Cooking is the bible which food lovers and professional chefs worldwide turn to for an understanding of where our foods come from, what exactly they're made of, and how cooking transforms them into something new and delicious. For its twentieth anniversary, Harold McGee prepared a new, fully revised and updated edition of On Food and Cooking. He has rewritten the text almost completely, expanded it by two-thirds, and commissioned more than 100 new illustrations. As compulsively readable and engaging as ever, the new On Food and Cooking provides countless eye-opening insights into food, its preparation, and its enjoyment. On Food and Cooking pioneered the translation of technical food science into cook-friendly kitchen science and helped birth the inventive culinary movement known as "molecular gastronomy." Though other books have been written about kitchen science, On Food and Cooking remains unmatched in the accuracy, clarity, and thoroughness of its explanations, and the intriguing way in which it blends science with the historical evolution of foods and cooking techniques. Among the major themes addressed throughout the new edition are: · Traditional and modern methods of food production and their influences on food quality · The great diversity of methods by which people in different places and times have prepared the same ingredients · Tips for selecting the best ingredients and preparing them successfully · The particular substances that give foods their flavors, and that give us pleasure · Our evolving knowledge of the health benefits and risks of foods On Food and Cooking is an invaluable and monumental compendium of basic information about ingredients, cooking methods, and the pleasures of eating. It will delight and fascinate anyone who has ever cooked, savored, or wondered about food.

Que signifie l’investissement actuel pour une campagne chargée de réassurer nos identités ? Étant de plus en plus nombreux à être citadins, ne s’agit-il donc là pour nous que d’une nostalgie ? Les ethnologues, géographes et sociologues dont les travaux sont rassemblés dans ce volume montrent la complexité du phénomène. S’il est vrai que la patrimonialisation de la campagne peut parfois prendre çà et là des accents passéistes, il ne s’agit que d’un effet trompeur. Dans ces reconquêtes, il ne s’agit pas seulement pour les ruraux de témoigner des valeurs qui les ont fait tenir ; il s’agit aussi, pour une société toute entière (anciens et nouveaux habitants), de se réapproprier un bien commun à partir de projets tournés vers l’avenir. Une multitude d’acteurs - associations, élus, techniciens, agriculteurs, entreprises agroalimentaires, professionnels du tourisme ou de la culture - débattent, à travers la « mise en patrimoine » d’un territoire, d’un foie gras, d’une race domestique, d’un champagne ou d’un savoir-faire..., d’autres types de rapport au monde (à l’espace, au temps, à l’habiter, au corps...) qu’il convient d’instituer. Et, patrimoine ne rimant ni avec « folklore » ni avec fermeture sur soi, ces articles démontrent que, pour y réussir, ce sont les avis de ces acteurs qu’il convient, avant tout, de prendre en compte. Cet ouvrage est issu d’un programme de recherche collectif financé par la mission du Patrimoine ethnologique du ministère de la Culture en 1994 et 1995 et intitulé « Nouveaux usages de la campagne et patrimoine ». Il est le résultat d’une animation scientifique qui, outre les responsables de la présente publication, a mobilisé sous l’autorité de la mission du Patrimoine ethnologique de nombreuses personnalités de la recherche et de la valorisation des territoires ruraux. Citons ceux qui nous ont accompagné dans la rédaction des textes de l’appel d’offres et dans les séminaires organisés aux Moussières et à Die : Noël Barbe, Jean Davallon, Françoise Dubost, Thierry Geffray, Philippe Goergen, Pierre-Antoine Landel, François Portet, Yvon Lamy, Bernadette Lizet, André Pitte. Qu’ils soient tous ici chaleureusement remerciés.
