Description

Explore the deep connection between what we eat and how we write. A History of Food in Literature by Routledge examines how food in novels, plays, and poems reveals much more than simple nourishment. This book looks at how food depictions help explain the relationship between the human body, individual identity, and social structures. This volume offers a clear and comprehensive overview of significant moments of food consumption within major canonical literary works. The text covers a massive timeline, tracing these themes from the medieval period through to the twenty-first century. By contextualizing these works with historical and cultural references, the book provides a deep look at how literature reflects our changing relationship with food throughout the centuries.
