Description

Explore the deep connection between liquid consumption and social interaction in The Semiotics of Drink and Drinking. Part of the Continuum Advances in Semiotics series, this scholarly work examines how drinks function as material and semiotic forms that shape modern life. By looking at how specific beverages act as mediums for social connection, this book offers a unique perspective on how we interact with the world through what we consume. Through a series of connected ethnographic discussions, the text investigates the materiality of common drinks such as coffee, wine, water, and beer. It analyzes how these substances serve as the basis for different types of sociability within specific times and locations.
