Abstract

Author John F. Donahue ranges from the extravagant banquets of the emperors to the feasts of the cities and towns of the Western Empire during the first four centuries of the Common Era. Taking as a starting point the development of feasting in ancient Greece then Rome, the study considers the kinds of foods offered at feasts, the social identities of benefactors and beneficiaries, the importance of venue, and a discussion of the cost and frequency of such banquets. This study is unique in that it relies on over three hundred Latin honorary inscriptions to recreate the ancient Roman feast. John F. Donahue is Assistant Professor of Classics at the College of William and Mary.

Abstract

Dinner Talk draws upon the recorded dinner conversations of, and extensive interviews with, native Israeli, American Israeli, and Jewish American middle-class families to explore the cultural styles of sociability and socialization in family discourse. The thesis developed is that family dinners in Western middle-class homes fulfill important functions of sociability for all participants and, at the same time, serve as crucial sites of socialization for children through language and for language use.
