Alternative Agriculture: A History: From the Black Death to the Present Day
ISBN: 9780198206620 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Yet crops from the past like flax, hemp, rapeseed, and woad are gradually reappearing in the "modern" countryside. Thirsk reveals how the forces which drive the current interest in alternative forms of agriculture--a glut of mainstream meat and cereal crops, changing patterns of diet, the needs of medicine--have striking parallels with earlier periods of English history, emphasizing that solutions to current problems...

Food in Early Modern England: Phases, Fads, Fashions, 1500-1760
ISBN: 9781852855383 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What did ordinary people eat and drink five hundred years ago? How much did they talk about food? Did their eating habits change much? Our knowledge is mostly superficial on such commonplace routines, but this book digs deep and finds surprising answers to these questions. We learn that food fads and fashions resembled those of our own day. Commercial, scientific and intellectual movements were closely entwined with changing attitudes and dealings about food. In short, food holds a mirror to a lively world of cultural change stretching from the Renaissance to the industrial Revolution.... What did ordinary people eat and drink five hundred years ago?
