Good Bread Is Back : A Contemporary History of French Bread, the Way It Is Made, and the People Who Make It
ISBN: 9780822338338 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Good Bread Is Back "is a beautifully illustrated book for foodies and Francophiles alike. Widely recognized as a leading expert on French bread, the historian Steven Laurence Kaplan takes readers into aromatic Parisian bakeries as he explains how good bread began to reappear in France in the 1990s, following almost a century of decline in quality.
Kaplan sets the stage for the comeback of good bread by describing how, while bread comprised the bulk of the French diet during the eighteenth century, by the twentieth, per capita consumption had dropped off precipitously. This was largely due... "Good Bread Is Back "is a beautifully illustrated book for foodies and Francophiles alike. Widely recognized as a leading expert on French bread, the ...

La Bagarre: Galiani's "Lost" Parody
ISBN: 9789400992993 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 123 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. It is my hope that this publication of a "lost" work by Galiani will interest scholars of many nations and disciplines. Few writers could make a more compelling claim upon such a cosmopolitan audience. An Italian with deep roots in his homeland, Galiani achieved celebrity in the salons of Paris. An ecclesiastic, his most notable concerns were worldly, to say the least. An erudite classicist, Galiani was passionately concerned about economics and technology. A philosophe and ostensibly something of a subversive, he was enthralled by power and he served for many years as a government agent and...

The Bakers of Paris and the Bread Question, 1700-1775
ISBN: 9780822317067 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 784 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In preindustrial Europe, dependence on grain shaped every phase of life from economic development to spiritual expression, and the problem of subsistence dominated the everyday order of things in a merciless and unremitting way.

It considers how each gender's relationship to food may facilitate mutual respect or produce gender hierarchy. This relationship is considered through two central questions: How does control of food production, distribution, and consumption contribute to men's and women's power and social position? and How does food symbolically connote maleness and femaleness and establish the social value of men and women? Other issues...
