Beskrivning

This text offers a compelling historical narrative of the relationship between food, national identity, and political economy in the early modern period. These mutually influential relationships are revealed through comparative and transnational analyses of effervescent wine, spices and cookbooks, the development of coffeehouses and cafés, and the 'national sweet tooth' in England and France.

Recensioner i media

Van Dyk's book stands out because it pushes the historical narrative further back chronologically... By focusing on food, Van Dyk claims to 'have relocated the development of national sentiment in England and France to the early modern period.'',- Troy Bickham, Texas A&M University, Food and History , 22.1, 2027
