UK Winner of the Entertaining category of the Gourmand World
Cookbook Awards 2020 Food defines us as individuals, communities,
and nations - we are what we eat and, equally, what we don't eat.
When, where, why, how and with whom we eat are crucial to our
identity. Feast and Fast presents novel approaches to understanding
the history and culture of food and eating in early modern Europe.
This richly illustrated book will showcase hidden and
newly-conserved treasures from the Fitzwilliam Museum and other
collections in and around Cambridge. It will tease out many
contemporary and controversial issues - such as the origins of food
and food security, overconsumption in times of austerity, and our
relationship with animals and nature - through short research-led
entries by some of the world's leading cultural and food
historians. Feast and Fast explores food-related objects, images,
and texts from the past in innovative ways and encourages us to
rethink our evolving relationship with food.
