Food and Identity in England, 1540-1640 considers early modern food
consumption in an important new way, connecting English consumption
practices between the reigns of Henry VIII and Charles I with ideas
of 'self' and 'otherness' in wider contexts of society and the
class system. Examining the diets of various social groups, ranging
from manual labourers to the aristocracy, special foods and their
preparation, as well as festive events and gift foods, this
all-encompassing study reveals the extent to which individuals and
communities identified themselves and others by what and how they
ate between the Reformation of the church and the English Civil
Wars. This text provides remarkable insights for anyone interested
in knowing more about the society and culture of early modern
England.
