Arts and Traditions of the Table: Perspectives on Culinary History
Content:
Nicola Perullo sees food as constituting our first and most significant encounter with the earth. He draws on years of research to explain the complex meanings behind our food choices and the thinking that accompanies our gustatory actions. For Perullo, taste is value and wisdom. It cannot be reduced to mere chemical or cultural factors but embodies the quality and quantity of our earthly experience.
