Klappentext

Food as culture in literature and the arts

This issue of Alif seeks to contribute to current scholarship on food and foodways. Food, here, emerges as a way to construct identities-both individual and national-and as a means of addressing familial, social, and religious issues, thereby providing a valuable critical approach, not just to literature and the arts, but to the humanities and social sciences as well.
