Abstract

On s’est beaucoup moqué des banquets politiques, de « cette éloquence d’automne semée autour de tables bourgeoises et arrosée de vins du cru » (Lamennais). Comment prendre au sérieux en effet ces agapes, à nos yeux si prosaïques en pleine exaltation romantique, mais aussi ridiculement effusives dans une époque qui vouait un culte à la rationalité politique ? Et pourtant, aujourd’hui encore, chacun sait que la cause immédiate de la révolution de Février 1848 fut l’interdiction par Guizot d’un banquet réformiste, celui du XIIe arrondissement de la capitale. Bon nombre de contemporains en restèrent perplexes : comme nous, ils n’arrivaient pas à comprendre comment une décision apparemment anodine avait pu avoir de telles conséquences. Aussi fallait-il reconstituer une histoire qui n’a jamais été écrite, celle d’une forme disparue du répertoire politique. Le banquet n’est si étrange à nos yeux que parce que nous avons indûment valorisé Gavroche et Tocqueville, la barri­cade et le parlement. Décrire les banquets, pour d’abord mieux comprendre la sociabilité du premier xixe siècle, et reconstituer la culture politique de toute une génération, qui savait jouer des symboles et de l’implicite, et qui, après la Révolution et le despotisme napoléonien, cherchait sa voie dans une période décisive pour l’apprentissage de la liberté et de la démocratie. Puis faire toute sa place à un imaginaire dont nous avons oublié la richesse et les multiples enjeux. C’est, en définitive, s’interroger sur la nature même du lien politique, au-delà des discours et des institutions.

Abstract

"The Gastronomical Arts in Spain includes essays that span from the medieval to the contemporary world, providing a taste of the many ways in which the art of gastronomy developed in Spain over time. This collection encompasses a series of cultural objects and a number of interests, ranging from medicine to science, from meals to banquets, and from specific recipes to cookbooks. The contributors consider Spanish cuisine as presented in a variety of texts, including literature, medical and dietary prescriptions, historical documents, cookbooks, and periodicals. They draw on literary texts in their socio-historical context in order to explore concerns related to the production and consumption of food for reasons of hunger, sustenance, health, and even gluttony. Structured into three distinct "courses" that focus on the history of foodstuffs, food etiquette, and culinary fashion, The Gastronomical Arts in Spain brings together the many sights and sounds of the Spanish kitchen throughout the centuries."--

Abstract

"Our contemporary concerns about food range from food security to agricultural sustainability to getting dinner on the table for family and friends. This book investigates food issues as they intersect with participatory Internet culture--blogs, wikis, online photo- and video-sharing platforms, and social networks--in efforts to bring about a healthy, socially inclusive, and sustainable food future. Focusing on our urban environments provisioned with digital and network capacities, and drawing on such "bottom-up" sociotechnical trends as DIY and open source, the chapters describe engagements with food and technology that engender (re-)creative interactions." --
