A fascinating persuasive history of how sugar has shaped the world, from European colonies to our modern diets. In this eye-opening study, Sidney Mintz shows how Europeans and Americans transformed sugar from a rare foreign luxury to a commonplace necessity of modern life, and how it changed the history of capitalism and industry. He discusses the production and consumption of sugar, and reveals how closely interwoven are sugar's origins as a "slave" crop grown in Europe's tropical colonies with is use first as an extravagant luxury for the aristocracy, then as a staple of the diet of the new industrial proletariat. Finally, he considers how sugar has altered work patterns, eating habits, and our diet in modern times.
Sidney W. Mintz is professor of anthropology at Johns Hopkins University, whose faculty he joined after teaching for two decades at Yale. He is the author of Worker in the Cane, Caribbean Transformations, and Tasting Food, Tasting Freedom: Excursions into Eating, Culture, and the Past, co-author of The People of Puerto Rico, and editor of Slavery, Colonialism and Racism.

評分当我说这本书是物质文化史的典范时,我的意思是如果你对物质文化史感兴趣的话,尤其是对日常生活中的物质文化(也就是人类学意义上的文化)感兴趣的话,这本书可以说是经典之作了。但是,如果你觉得物质文化史完全是无聊的鸡毛蒜皮,吃什么用什么擦屁股,完全是无关紧要的东西...
評分本书主要围绕蔗糖在英国的消费史展开,由此表述权力如何影响和改变人民,从脑子到舌头。 蔗糖12世纪传入英国,作为香料、装饰品、药物等被使用,因量少昂贵,属于奢侈品和权力象征,只为统治阶级所拥有。 17世纪英国开始不停在殖民地建种植园以敛财,蔗糖产量得到提升,价格下...
評分终于知道英国菜为什么那么难吃了!因为英国本土资源贫乏,老百姓长期处于极度贫穷中,穷的地方,吃得都不会太讲究的。 英国本土出产的只有小麦(一半面积可种,另外一半地方由于土地过于贫瘠而不行)、黑麦、大麦、豆子(他们没有发明豆腐,所以只能煮着吃,口感问题解决不了...
