ANTH279: Food Across Cultures |
How is it that a remembered taste can trigger an opening into a place long abandoned, and times long past? And how do transformations of taste and styles of cooking through globalisation and migration invite such emotional and opposed responses, from a celebration of multicultural hyhridity, to a resistance to corporate multinational food chains, to the purist celebration of authentic tastes? This course explores the way food mediates and shapes core social relations to place, to time, and to gender, sexuality and social rank.
