The World of Taste in Early Modern Europe

Scorned since antiquity as low and animal, the sense of taste is celebrated today as an ally of joy, a source of adventure, and an arena for pursuing sophistication. The French exalted taste as an entrée to ecstasy, and revolutionized their cuisine and language to express this new way of engaging with the world. Viktoria von Hoffmann explores four kinds of early modern texts--culinary, medical, religious, and philosophical--to follow taste's ascent from the sinful to the beautiful. Combining food studies and sensory history, she takes readers on an odyssey that redefined a fundamental human experience. Scholars and cooks rediscovered a vast array of ways to prepare and present foods. Far-sailing fleets returned to Europe bursting with new vegetables, exotic fruits, and pungent spices. Hosts refined notions of hospitality in the home while philosophers pondered the body and its perceptions. As von Hoffmann shows, these labors produced a sea change in perception and thought, one that moved taste from the base realm of the tongue to the ethereal heights of aesthetics.

Sens grossier, sens corporel, sens animal, sens matériel … Le goût est, dans les cultures anciennes, un sens inférieur, placé au bas de la hiérarchie des sens. Il peine à éveiller l’attention des savants, fascinés par les merveilles de l’œil et du regard. Comment expliquer, dès lors, l’avènement au XIXe siècle d’une culture qui invente et célèbre la gastronomie, dont nous sommes aujourd’hui les héritiers ? Pour répondre à cette interrogation, il convient d’emprunter des chemins bien plus complexes et sinueux que ceux que nous offre l’histoire de la seule cuisine. Dès lors qu’on l’envisage dans la perspective générale d’une histoire du sensible, le goût se situe non plus seulement entre le salé et le sucré, mais se retrouve au cœur de débats théoriques essentiels portant sur les rapports entre le corps et l’esprit, la Nature et la Culture, l’identité et l’altérité. Ce livre emprunte plusieurs parcours, du « goût de Dieu » des mystiques au « bon goût » de l’honnête homme, en passant par le je ne sais quoi si fréquemment associé à un sens qui désignera, dès le XVIIIe siècle, le jugement esthétique. Cuisiniers, médecins, philosophes – qu’ils soient cartésiens, empiristes, sensualistes ou matérialistes –, hommes d’Église, chimistes, démonologues et encyclopédistes nous montrent ici combien parler du goût c’est aussi et surtout réfléchir les rapports que l’homme des Temps modernes entretient avec le monde, sensible, qui l’entoure.
