Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eating habits of today derive from the gastronomic culture of the Middle Ages, an era in which there were no supermarkets, the dishes were closely linked to seasonality and the availability of food was uncertain due to great calamities such as famines, wars and epidemics. In her essay, the author shows how the evolution of taste in Europe has been influenced by the progressive integration of Mediterranean uses and Nordic uses, with strong differences according to geographical areas but also to uses and customs. The book contains a special section dedicated to medieval recipes, taken from the texts of the ancient gastronomists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un viaggio tra ricettari e condimenti, dal ‘sapore dell'acqua' allo ‘statuto ambiguo del pesce', dall'importanza della cucina monastica al ruolo della tavola come ‘rappresentazione del mondo'. Una guida rigorosa, utile al gourmet quanto allo storico che voglia addentrarsi nei sapori di quest'epoca. Rocco Moliterni, "Tuttolibri" Siamo seduti a tavola e il cibo viene servito in una successione uguale per tutti. Oggi accade normalmente e ci pare ovvio: ma è stato sempre così? Non nel Medioevo. La tavola medievale segue un altro modello, simile a quello che troviamo ancora praticato in Cina e in Giappone: i cibi sono serviti simultaneamente e spetta a ciascun convitato sceglierli e ordinarli secondo il proprio gusto. Ancora: la cucina contemporanea tende a rispettare i sapori ‘naturali' e a riservare a ciascuno di essi uno spazio distinto. La cucina medievale invece preferiva mescolare i sapori ed esaltava l'idea dell'artificio, che modifica la natura. Ma se le differenze di gusto fra noi e il Medioevo sono importanti, altrettanto forti sono le continuità. Alcune preparazioni costituiscono tuttora un segno forte dell'identità alimentare. E allora: il Medioevo è vicino o lontano?

Book excerpt: Gli studi qui raccolti esplorano i temi che sono stati al centro della ricerca e dell’insegnamento di Odile Redon, una storica appassionata in uguale misura del Medioevo e dell’Italia. In primo luogo la storia della Toscana medievale, e in particolare di Siena e del suo territorio. Poi la ricerca sui movimenti religiosi, sulla santità, sulle folle di eremiti che paradossalmente popolavano i “deserti” intorno a Siena nel Medioevo. Infine tutto quanto riguarda il mantenimento, la salute e i piaceri del corpo; e tra i piaceri, in primo luogo, quelli legati al cibo: un terreno sul quale Odile Redon si è spesso avventurata, facendo rivivere – e non solo sulla carta – le antiche ricette e abitudini alimentari.

Book excerpt: Un modello alimentare cristiano non esiste. Secondo la tradizione apostolica non importa cosa si mangia, ma come si mangia: l'attenzione è tutta sul gesto alimentare, dai rituali del convivio al valore della frugalità. Gli uomini, però, hanno bisogno di regole, e la libertà sottesa al messaggio apostolico disorienta. Anche per questo la storia del cristianesimo elabora nei secoli una serie infinita di modelli alimentari, ogni volta diversi e adattabili alle più disparate circostanze, nel tentativo di ridare al cibo un valore "oggettivo" e di recuperare l'idea antropologicamente inossidabile secondo cui l'uomo è ciò che mangia. La storia del cristianesimo è un patrimonio straordinario di consuetudini e di contagi culturali che rimandano alla tradizione ebraica, alla filosofia greca, alla scienza dietetica: dal ruolo del pane e del vino nell'eucarestia alla condanna della "gola", dal mito del Paradiso terrestre al valore di redenzione del digiuno, dalle pratiche alimentari monastiche alle regole dell'astinenza quaresimale. Con grande efficacia evocativa, l'autore ripercorre queste storie cogliendo nel profondo la forza di precetti, proibizioni, parossismi e idiosincrasie che investono anche la politica e gli ordinamenti sociali. Con un occhio al presente: perché molto di quello che qui si racconta ha resistito nei secoli fino a noi.
Download or read book Food Feasting and Table Manners in the Late Middle Ages written by Guillermo Alvar Nuño and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a study of what and how people ate in the Iberian Peninsula between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. It has long been recognized that Mediterranean cultures attach great importance to communal meals and food cooked with great refinement. However, whilst medieval feasting in England, France and Italy has been thoroughly studied, Spain and Portugal have both been somewhat neglected in this area of study. This volume analyses how medieval men of the Iberian Peninsula questioned themselves about different aspects deemed important in social feasting. It investigates the acquisition of table manners and rhetorical skills, the interaction between medicine and eating, and the presence of food in literature and religion. The book also shows how this shared society and culture, as well as their attitude towards food, connected them to a Western European tradition. The book will appeal to scholars and students alike interested in food and feasting from the perspectives of literature, history, language, art, religion and medicine, and to those interested in a social, cultural and literary overview of life in the Iberian Peninsula during the late Middle Ages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his new history of food, acclaimed historian Massimo Montanari traces the development of medieval tastes—both culinary and cultural—from raw materials to market and captures their reflections in today's food trends. Tying the ingredients of our diet evolution to the growth of human civilization, he immerses readers in the passionate debates and bold inventions that transformed food from a simple staple to a potent factor in health and a symbol of social and ideological standing. Montanari returns to the prestigious Salerno school of medicine, the "mother of all medical schools," to plot the theory of food that took shape in the twelfth century. He reviews the influence of the Near Eastern spice routes, which introduced new flavors and cooking techniques to European kitchens, and reads Europe's earliest cookbooks, which took cues from old Roman practices that valued artifice and mixed flavors. Dishes were largely low-fat, and meats and fish were seasoned with vinegar, citrus juices, and wine. He highlights other dishes, habits, and battles that mirror contemporary culinary identity, including the refinement of pasta, polenta, bread, and other flour-based foods; the transition to more advanced cooking tools and formal dining implements; the controversy over cooking with oil, lard, or butter; dietary regimens; and the consumption and cultural meaning of water and wine. As people became more cognizant of their physicality, individuality, and place in the cosmos, Montanari shows, they adopted a new attitude toward food, investing as much in its pleasure and possibilities as in its acquisition.

Download or read book A History of Italy written by Claudia Baldoli and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-11-19 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the beginning of the 18th century, to be 'Italian' meant to identify with a number of collective memories, rather than a national memory. Yet there are elements of continuity that have shaped Italian identity over the past 1,500 years. Religion, food, art and architecture, a literary language, as well as a particular relationship between cities and countryside, between family and civil society have all contributed to present day Italian culture and politics. Baldoli explores the history of Italy as a country, rather than as a nation, in order to trace its fascinating cultural and political development. Offering a way into each period of Italian history, the book brings Italy's past to life with extracts from poetry, novels and music. Drawing on the latest research published in English and Italian, this is the ideal introduction for all those interested in Italy's cultural and social past and its significance for the country's present.
