FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD: A FEAST FOR THE MIND
“There is no sincerer love than the love of food.” —George Bernard Shaw
It is said that some eat to live while others live to eat. How has our relationship with food changed over the centuries? As increased trade and easier travel shrank the world, unfamiliar foods and drink became available, reducing the need to rely on local products. From taxation schemes to hunger strikes, food has been frequently implicated in politics.
What is the importance of food in different cultures? Why do some societies suffer from widespread obesity, while others struggle to feed their citizens? Does an army really march on its stomach? How has technology changed the way we eat and drink? With climate change and GMOs, what twists in the story of food might surprise us going forward?
In this 18-week course, we will use fiction, non-fiction, film, and lively discussion as food for thought.
