From the publisher

More than a book about food alone, French Food uses diet as a window into issues of nationality, literature, and culture in France and abroad. Outstanding contributors from cultural studies, literary criticism, performance studies, and the emerging field of food studies explore a wide range of food matters.

First line

Although it has been applied to many enterprises, the concept of "field" has proved especially fruitful for the analysis of intellectual and cultural activities.
