As well as having a real fascination in their own right, both activities are an integral part of the both social and economic history. Yet food and drink, especially in the middle ages, have received less than their proper share of attention. The essays in this volume approach their subject from a variety of angles: from the reality of starvation and the reliance on 'fast food' of those without cooking facilities, to the consumption of an English lady's household and the career of a cook in the French royal household."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Dinners and diningEuropeHistoryTo 1500Food habitsEuropeHistoryTo 1500Social historyMedieval, 500-1500General & world historyEuropeSocial life and customsDinners and diningHistoryFood habitsHistorySocial history394.1/094/0902Carlin MarthaRosenthal Joel Thomas1934-UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910777721003321Food and Eating in Medieval Europe145236UNINA
