Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume surveys recent studies of the metaphorical and material facets of food in medieval and early modern Europe. Ranging from literary, historical, and political analyses to archaeological and botanical ones, this collection explores food as a nexus of pre-modern European culture. Food and feasting are understood not simply as the consumption of material goods but also as the figurative and symbolic representations of culture, which Mauss has termed a 'total social fact'. To understand the myriad ways in which discourses about food and feasting are mobilized during this period is to better understand the fundamental role food and feasting played in the development of Europeans' habitual patterns of behaviour and of thought.

First edition in English. Full facsimile of the c.1503 French edition printed in Lyons by Pierre Mareschal and Barnabé Chaussard, accompanied by translation and introduction by Timothy Tomasik. 8vo., original half morocco, marbled paper boards, spine with raised bands, lettered in gilt. Sebastopol & London, Ben Kinmont & Bernard Quaritch. Printed letterpress in an edition of 100 copies. Twenty large-paper on Zwerkall mouldmade and eighty on Mohawk Superfine. This number 28/80. Printed at the shop of Patrick Reagh, Sebastopol and bound at Ateliers Laurenchet, Paris. "Le Contenances de la table is one of the most precious of all early children's books. Important in both the history of etiquette and gastronomy, it places the reader in the position of the child in Renaissance France, having to listen to the 'dos and don'ts' of life around the table. [.] The current edition is the first English edition of Les Contenances de la table. Our purpose in issuing it is to make the text more accessible to scholars and collectors. Although there are two nineteenth-century reprints, one issued by the Roxburghe Club (1816, published in thirty-eight copies) and another by A. Pilinski (1860, published in twenty copies), both are extremely difficult to find." (Ben Kinmont, Preface.) With a bibliography and census of known editions of the work.
