Description

Literature and Food Studies introduces readers to a growing interdisciplinary field that examines how literary genres and cultural movements engage with the edible world whilst illuminating transnational histories of empire, domesticity, scientific innovation, and environmental transformation. With a focus on the Americas and Europe, this scholarly work compares imaginative literature spanning from classical texts like Ovid's Metamorphoses and Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale to modern masterworks including James Joyce's Ulysses and Toni Morrison's Tar Baby. The book explores how food appears across literary traditions and what this reveals about human society, culture, and our relationship with the natural world. Ideal for students and scholars of literature, cultural studies, and food history seeking to understand the deep connections between what we read and what we eat.

Key Features

Literature and Food Studies examines interdisciplinary connections between literary analysis and food culture across multiple historical periods and genres.

The book compares canonical works including Ovid's Metamorphoses, Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale, Joyce's Ulysses, and Morrison's Tar Baby with vernacular literary traditions.

Covers transnational histories spanning the Americas and Europe, revealing how literature reflects empire, domesticity, scientific innovation, and environmental change.

Published by Routledge as part of the Literature and Contemporary Thought series, providing scholarly perspective on cultural and literary criticism.
