Book Synopsis Cuisine and Culture by : Linda Civitello
Download or read book Cuisine and Culture written by Linda Civitello and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-29 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuisine and Culture presents a multicultural and multiethnic approach that draws connections between major historical events and how and why these events affected and defined the culinary traditions of different societies. Witty and engaging, Civitello shows how history has shaped our diet--and how food has affected history. Prehistoric societies are explored all the way to present day issues such as genetically modified foods and the rise of celebrity chefs. Civitello's humorous tone and deep knowledge are the perfect antidote to the usual scholarly and academic treatment of this universally important subject.
Book Synopsis Fifty Seasons at Stratford by : Robert Cushman
Download or read book Fifty Seasons at Stratford written by Robert Cushman and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2004 winner of the J.J. Talman Award from the Ontario Historical Society. ""On July 13, 1953, the curtain rose on "Richard III, " the first production of the first Stratford Festival. Only it didn't. There was no curtain, and that is perhaps the single most important fact about the Festival. From that, sometimes in reaction to that, everything else has followed."" So begins "Fifty Seasons at Stratford, " an historical account of Canada's world-renowned Shakespearean theatre, as told by Robert Cushman, writer, director, and critic. More than 250 full-colour and black-and-white photographs, design sketches, drawings and paintings from the Festival archives fill this extraordinary book, making it a worthy celebration of Stratford's golden anniversary. Acclaimed author and playwright Timothy Findley (who has himself appeared on the theatre's varnished boards) begins this journey. He is joined by distinguished Festival alumni Christopher Plummer, William Shatner, Irene Worth, and Hume Cronyn, who offer personal accounts of their experiences. Stratford is inseparable from Canadian theatre. As Robert Cushman reminds us, Canadian actors from Kate Reid and Martha Henry to William Hutt and Bruno Gerusi, first learned how to hold an audience on Tania Moisevitch's innovative stage. Cushman's vast knowledge of the theatre is everywhere evident as he describes the theatre's humble beginnings under a tent, the difficult years when Canadian actors strove to establish themselves, and its present and continuing glory. The text is authoritative and comprehensive. The photos are evocative and memorable. Sidebars and well-chosen sketches illustrate the myriad crafts and artisan departments that toil backstage - costume, make-up, and props. "Fifty Years at Stratford" is the indispensable reference and perfect record to which theatre fans everywhere will turn again and again.

Book Synopsis Food in Shakespeare by : Joan Fitzpatrick
Download or read book Food in Shakespeare written by Joan Fitzpatrick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of common and exotic food in Shakespeare's plays, this is the first book to explore early modern English dietary literature to understand better the significance of food in Shakespearean drama. Food in Shakespeare provides for modern readers and audiences an historically accurate account of the range of, and conflicts between, contemporary ideas that informed the representations of food in the plays. It also focuses on the social and moral implications of familiar and strange foodstuff in Shakespeare's works. This new approach provides substantial fresh readings of Hamlet, Macbeth, As you Like It, The Winter's Tale, Henry IV Parts 1 and 2, Henry V, Titus Andronicus, Coriolanus, Pericles, Timon of Athens, and the co-authored Sir Thomas More. Among the dietaries explored are Andrew Boorde's A Compendyous Regyment or a Dyetary of Healthe (1547), William Bullein's The Gouernement of Healthe (1595), Thomas Elyot's The Castle of Helthe (1595) and Thomas Cogan's The Hauen of Health (1636). These dieteries were republished several times in the early modern period; together they typify the genre's condemnation of surfeit and the tendency to blame human disease on feeding practices. This study directs scholarly attention to the importance of early modern dietaries, analyzing their role in wider culture as well as their intersection with dramatic art. In the dietaries food and drink are indices of one's position in relation to complex ideas about rank, nationality, and spiritual well-being; careful consumption might correct moral as well as physical shortcomings. The dietaries are an eclectic genre: some contain recipes for the reader to try, others give tips on more general lifestyle choices, but all offer advice on how to maintain good health via diet. Although some are more stern and humourless than others, the overwhelming impression is that of food as an ally in the battle against disease and ill-health as well as a potential enemy.
Book Synopsis Renaissance Food from Rabelais to Shakespeare by : Dr Joan Fitzpatrick
Download or read book Renaissance Food from Rabelais to Shakespeare written by Dr Joan Fitzpatrick and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-04-28 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a unique perspective on a fascinating aspect of early modern culture, this volume focuses on the role of food and diet as represented in the works of a range of European authors, including Shakespeare, from the late medieval period to the mid seventeenth century. The volume is divided into several sections, the first of which is "Eating in Early Modern Europe"; contributors consider cultural formations and cultural contexts for early modern attitudes to food and diet, moving from the more general consideration of European and English manners to the particular consideration of historical attitudes toward specific foodstuffs. The second section is "Early Modern Cookbooks and Recipes," which takes readers into the kitchen and considers the development of the cultural artifact we now recognize as the cookbook, how early modern recipes might "work" today, and whether cookery books specifically aimed at women might have shaped domestic creativity. Part Three, "Food and Feeding in Early Modern Literature" offers analysis of the engagement with food and feeding in key literary European and English texts from the early sixteenth to the early seventeenth century: François Rabelais's Quart livre, Shakespeare's plays, and seventeenth-century dramatic prologues. The essays included in this collection are international and interdisciplinary in their approach; they incorporate the perspectives of historians, cultural commentators, and literary critics who are leaders in the field of food and diet in early modern culture.

Book Synopsis English – One Tongue, Many Voices by : Jan Svartvik
Download or read book English – One Tongue, Many Voices written by Jan Svartvik and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fully revised and expanded second edition of English - One Tongue, Many Voices, a book by three internationally distinguished English language scholars who tell the fascinating, improbable saga of English in time and space. Chapters trace the history of the language from its obscure beginnings over 1500 years ago as a collection of dialects spoken by marauding, illiterate tribes. They show how the geographical spread of the language in its increasing diversity has made English into an international language of unprecedented range and variety. The authors examine the present state of English as a global language and the problems, pressures and uncertainties of its future, online and offline. They argue that, in spite of the amazing variety and plurality of English, it remains a single language.

Download or read book Reham Khan written by Reham Khan and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2018-08-31 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reham Khan's eventful life took her from Gaddafi's Libya to Zia's Pakistan and thence to England as a teenage bride, before she returned to Pakistan in her forties. Her life has been one of extraordinary contrasts: she has been through a violent marriage and domestic abuse, and has had to negotiate the murky world of Pakistan politics; but her story also includes the rebuilding of her life after she chose to end her first marriage, raising three children single-handedly and at the same time, building herself a successful career both in the UK and in Pakistan. Reham Khan's story is ultimately one of resilience, strength, courage and conviction. It is the story of a woman who believed in herself and stood up to the world despite the fact that the odds were stacked against her - and ultimately emerged victorious. In clear, crisp prose, Reham Khan tells her story with wit, intelligence and candour. This is a memoir that will engage and surprise readers of all ages and of both genders; to many it will be an inspirational tale from a woman who fought for respect and for her identity on her own terms, a woman who is a survivor, and a winner.
