Consuming Gothic: Food and Horror in Film
ISBN: 9781137450500 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book offers a critical analysis of the relationship between food and horror in post-1980 cinema. Evaluating the place of consumption within cinematic structures, Piatti-Farnell analyses how seemingly ordinary foods are re-evaluated in the Gothic framework of irrationality and desire. The complicated and often ambiguous relationship between food and horror draws important and inescapable connections to matters of disgust, hunger, abjection, violence, as well as the sensationalisation of transgressive corporeality and monstrous pleasures. By looking at food consumption within Gothic...

Banana: A Global History
ISBN: 9781780235714 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. Sweet but starchy, soft but toothsome--and so easy to peel they just beg to be devoured--bananas are one of our favorite foods, found everywhere from gas station counters to Michelin star restaurants. Yet for as versatile and ubiquitous as this fruit is today, its history is a turbulent one, entangled in colonial domination, capitalist exploitation, sexual politics, and even horrific violence. Delving into the banana's past, this book traces the complex circumstances of global modernity that perfectly aligned to grant us, often at tremendous costs, a treat we all now take for granted.

Food and Culture in Contemporary American Fiction
ISBN: 9780415884228 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Establishing an interdisciplinary connection between Food Studies and American literary scholarship, Piatti-Farnell investigates the significances of food and eating in American fiction, from 1980 to the present day. She argues that culturally-coded representations of the culinary illuminate contemporary American anxieties about class gender, race, tradition, immigration, nationhood, and history. As she offers a critical analysis of major works of contemporary fiction, Piatti-Farnell unveils contrasting modes of culinary nostalgia, disillusionment, and progress that pervasively address the...
