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 August 1994:
Farewell to Sophie Coe - Alan and Jane Davidson
A Spicy Mystery, or …with soap on our hands and foam at our mouths - Helen J Saberi with Anissa Helou and Esteban Pombo-Villar
Puddings as Love-offerings - Barbara Sobey and Damaris Hayman
On the Fringes of History: Food and Eating Habits in the Banat - Doina and Nicolae Harsanyi
The Prospect Behind Us - Alan Davidson
Breakfast with Jane Austen - Eileen White
Rumohr and the Gastronomic Canon - Michael Symons
As always, there are book reviews as well.
