Some of the world’s most adventurous food historians contribute to this thrice-yearly journal of articles and excerpts from works in progress. The emphasis is on plain writing rather than jargon. In these early issues you are able to see food studies begin to establish itself as a discipline as the tenor of reviews evolve, and calls for contributors and conferences proliferate. Among the articles in this issue from March 1989:
Bushaq of Shiraz: Poet, Parasite and Gastronome - Ayla Aygar
Food in Festivity: The Fourth Symposium of Australian Gastronomy - Barbara Santich
Isfidhabaj, Blancmanger and No Almonds - Charles Perry
Inca Food: Vegetable - Sophie Coe
Among the Yoruba Mushroom-Eaters - Esther Balogh
As always, there are book reviews as well.
Paperback.
