Download or read book Afternoon Tea written by Julia Skinner and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-04-05 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afternoon Tea: A History explores the development of the afternoon tea meal, diving deeper than the popular tale of the Duchess of Bedford’s afternoon gatherings to find the meals that inspired those early afternoon teas. Julia Skinner carefully separates the fact and lore around the meal and sets the story of afternoon tea within its historic contexts. Recognizing that a meal’s birth and life never happen in a vacuum, the book sets aside the already well-documented conversations surrounding tea etiquette, instead exploring the social contexts that made the meal possible and popular, moving it from one small subset of the population to a widespread and beloved phenomenon, one that nearly died out at the end of the 20th century before experiencing a resurgence in the 21st. Afternoon tea is a meal that came of age during the British Empire’s most aggressive expansion, and as such became a meal that was transported to new continents with colonial forces. The book explores how this movement took place and uncovers the different ways tea and colonialism intersect in both the colonial and postcolonial worlds. It also looks at afternoon tea in America, a country that broke from the Empire before the meal was established as a set ritual, but which still has its own complex relationship with the beverage and a continuing fascination with the meal. The book concludes by looking at afternoon tea today, including a handful of interviews that show the range of perspectives about the meal and its place in society, as well as its resurging popularity in the last decade.

Book Synopsis The Invisible Piper by : Deepak Rikhye
Download or read book The Invisible Piper written by Deepak Rikhye and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-03-06 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Invisible Piper transports the reader back in time to a reality centered around tea production in India. Rikhye richly portrays both the sweetness and challenges of his awe-inspiring days working on tea estates, while weaving in the ancient history of tea and the contemporary history of the tea industry. The result is a captivating narrative of how tea shaped our global economy and culture, told through the lens of the people behind the leaves.” – Jennie Miller, PhD - Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, USA ~~~*~~~ “England took to tea for the simple reason that London’s water was so bad it had to be boiled before it could be consumed at all. The Thames was lifeless by 1848, and by June 1858 the stench was so bad that it was ‘impossible to continue business in Parliament’. Tea literally became vital to British life and to the health of the British people. Wherever the British went, like Canada, Australia and New Zealand, they took and spread their love of tea with them. Deepak Rikhye’s poignant memoir, of his father and his experiences as an Indian planter, contains within itself an incisive analysis of the culture as well as the political economy of tea. His proposal that the tea economy be used by India and China to help make peace between themselves is both unique and important. His narrative takes the tea-drinker so deeply into the origins of the supply, to the daily, weekly and seasonal routines of a plantation that he almost manages to evoke the sprightly fragrance of a tea garden itself! This book gives a unique whiff of the whole culture of tea and all lovers of tea will love it.” – Subroto Roy, PhD (Cambridge), Economist
