Course Description:
To write about food is to write about life. This course will consider various types of food writing from a variety of perspectives, ranging from food's cultural significance, and the rituals and artistry associated with culinary production, to issues of food justice. Field trips (to local farm, restaurants, soup kitchen) will help to contextualize and localize our readings, which will include plays, films, poems and short stories, as well as classics of culinary nonfiction (restaurant reviews, essays, memoirs, and investigative journalism). |
