This is the eighteenth volume of the ongoing series of papers and submissions to the Oxford Symposium on Food & Cookery, the longest running food history conference in the world.The subject this year is more speculative than is often the case and contributors have ranged widely over a topic which allows them to explore the psychological bases of food consumption and the development of cookery, as well as more obvious excursions down memory lane in pursuit of food and drink.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The thirty-first Oxford Symposium on Food & Cookery discussed wrapped and stuffed foods from every possible angle, and from every possible geographical perspective. This may include sausages on the one hand, or stuffed ravioli on the other. It may also go as far as pies and sausage rolls. In geographical terms the Symposiasts were willing to look at cultures as disparate as Turkey, the United States, seventeenth-century England, Korea and Italy. There is also a pancultural discussion of stuffing and wrapping foods in avant-garde or molecular gastronomy. Contributors include the Chinese expert Fuschia Dunlop, the Greek cookery writer Aglaia Kremezi, the celebrated food writer and cultural historian from America Laura Shapiro, the Australian food historian Barbara Santich, the Israeli commentator and historian Susan Weingarten, and the English anthropologist David C. Sutton. Titles of some of the papers include: The Pillsbury Bake-Off: Stuffed and Wrapped in 1950s and 1960s America; Chicken Kiev: Material, Social and Discursive Wrappings; Samuel Pepys's Venison Pasties; Barbarian heads and Turkish dumplings: the Chinese word mantou; A Knish Is Just a Knish - or Is It?The Evolution of a Street Food to Haute Nosh and Before Dolma: A Taxonomy of Medieval Arab Stuffery. 32 essays by international scholars on the subject of wrapped and stuffed foods, from the proceedings of the Oxford Symposium on Food and Cookery 2012.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In this continuing series, the topic of vegetables embraces a wide range of pieces from English, American and overseas scholars. Their treatments encompass both a broader consideration of the vegetable diet and the history of the cultivation and consumption of specific varieties. Cookery and consumption are not highlighted at the expense of cultivation, so there are some interesting essays on allotments, market gardening in the Paris region, early-modern vegetable gardening in England and the development of markets in India. The theme has been treated with admirable latitude in contributions on vegetables and diplomacy, vegetable carving, and vegetables in Renaissance art. The book follows the standard form of academic proceedings and the readership is therefore specialised. This is the twenty-sixth volume in the series.
