Appetites and Identities is a clear, inviting and fascinating
introduction to the social anthropology of western Europe. It
covers food, migration, politics, urban and country life, magic,
religion, sex and language in an accessible and straightforward
fashion, introducing the student to aspects of the anthropology of
contemporary European culture from mussel farmers in the
Netherlands to Basque chambermaids in Lourdes, and from unhappy
bachelors in western Ireland to unwitchers in Portugal.
Avoiding the technical language of many anthropological textbooks,
Appetites and Identities sets out the anthropological literature on
the rich diversity of dialects, cultures and everyday lives of
western European people, offering fascinating insights on how each
region and community differs from its counterparts despite the
notion of an integrated Europe. The book will stimulate curiosity
about social anthropological investigation, and about life in
Europe today.
