Siren Feasts. A History of Food and Gastronomy in Greece. - DALBY, A.,
A History of Food and Gastronomy in Greece
KORTE INHOUD
'In Siren Feasts Andrew Dalby intends to answer two questions: 'What did the Greeks eat? How did gastronomy and food writing develop among them?' (p.XV) (...) Though he is well-read in many approaches to food in the ancient world, D. works primarily from a historical rather than a literary or anthropological perspective. (...) The strength of Siren Feasts lies in its attention to the development of gastronomy and to the gastronomical writers who are relatively unknown even to professional classicists. The book can also be a useful starting point for inquiries into Greek food.' (GWEN COMPTON-ENGLE in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 96.04.29). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux.
