Food in Medieval Times is a synthetic work which pulls together information on medieval cookery and approaches to food from a variety of different sources both secondary and primary. Adamson has done a good job at creating a primer on the topic, and I could see this being a useful text to use in an undergrad classroom setting, or as a sort of encyclopaedic reference for the researcher looking to see the uses of a particular kind of food during the medieval period. The writing is however a little dry and somewhat repetitive, with the same facts often repeated in different chapters as if for the first time. It's mostly well foot-noted, but there were a couple of origins for old wives' tales which were given as fact but without citation which made me a little dubious. Recommended for those with a pre-existing interest in medieval food, but it's probably not going to entice those who are new to the topic. ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
New light is shed on everyday life in the middle ages in Great Britain and continental Europe through this unique survey of its food culture. Students and other readers will learn about the common foodstuffs available, how and what they cooked, ate, and drank, what the regional cuisines were like, how the different classes entertained and celebrated, and what restrictions they followed for health and faith reasons. Fascinating information is provided, such as on imitation food, kitchen humor, and medical ideas. Many period recipes and quotations flesh out the narrative. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
