Earthly Delights brings together a number of substantial and
original scholarly studies by international scholars currently
working on the history of food in the Ottoman Empire and
East-Central Europe. It offers new empirical research, as well as
surveys of the state of scholarship in this discipline, with
special emphasis on influences, continuities and discontinuities in
the culinary cultures of the Ottoman Porte, the Balkans and
East-Central Europe between the 17th and 19th centuries. Some
contributions address economic aspects of food provision, the
development and trans-national circulation of individual dishes,
and the role of merchants, diplomats and travellers in the
transmission of culinary trends. Others examine the role of food in
the construction of national and regional identities in contact
zones where local traditions merged or clashed with imperial
(Ottoman, Habsburg) and West-European influences.
