帝國的食物史。把食物作為切入英帝國曆史的角度,從具體的食材或者菜肴牽扯齣帝國擴張的大趨勢和帝國對殖民者和被殖民者口味的塑造。有很多好玩的細節,可以解釋很多之前的疑問。有一個觀點很有意思,英國工人階級喝茶並不是為瞭喝茶,而是為瞭喝糖獲取廉價的熱量,很多時候茶葉就是給糖水染個色...另外也好奇中文版是怎麼處理鴉片戰爭那一節的,按作者在書裏的說法,鴉片販子賣完鴉片之後都去廣州東印度公司洋行裏把白銀換成匯票,方便在倫敦體現或者在印度繼續貿易,這些白銀又被用來購買中國茶和絲,所以鴉片貿易雖然在賬目上扭轉瞭東印度公司對華貿易逆差,但是實際上沒有造成白銀的大規模外流。

The Taste of Empire 在線電子書 圖書描述

A history of the British Empire told through twenty meals eaten around the world

In The Taste of Empire, acclaimed historian Lizzie Collingham tells the story of how the British Empire's quest for food shaped the modern world. Told through twenty meals over the course of 450 years, from the Far East to the New World, Collingham explains how Africans taught Americans how to grow rice, how the East India Company turned opium into tea, and how Americans became the best-fed people in the world. In The Taste of Empire, Collingham masterfully shows that only by examining the history of Great Britain's global food system, from sixteenth-century Newfoundland fisheries to our present-day eating habits, can we fully understand our capitalist economy and its role in making our modern diets.

Book of the Week on BBC Radio 4

"Lizzie Collingham's fascinating new book...demonstrates that a cup of tea is never just a cup of tea-it is a history of trade, exchange, land-grab, agricultural innovation and economic change...Marvelously wide-ranging and readable."

-Financial Times (UK)

"[Collingham] is exploring largely virgin territory. For centuries historical studies focused on political and social narratives. Until recently economics did not receive anything like its proper attention. Collingham seeks to redress the...omission...A wholly pleasing book."

-Sunday Times (UK)

"Revelatory...Collingham's book ranges widely to show how 'Britain's quest for food shaped the modern world.' An original and thought-provoking book and for all the shocking accounts of the consequences of British appetites, a highly entertaining one."

-The Times (UK)

"This is a wholly pleasing book, which offers a tasty side dish to anyone exploring the narrative history of the British Empire."

--Max Hastings, Sunday Times (UK)

"An original and thought-provoking book and for all the shocking accounts of the consequences of British appetites, a highly entertaining one."

--The Times (UK)

"Lizzie Collingham's fascinating new book, The Taste of Empire, demonstrates that a cup of tea is never just a cup of tea--it is a history of trade, exchange, land-grab, agricultural innovation and economic change.... This is a marvelously wide-ranging and readable book, stuffed with engaging details and startling connections."

--Financial Times

"This ingeniously constructed history shows that what we think of as personal appetites have largely been constructed by the machinations of empire. The Taste of Empire uses vivid snapshots of meals to tell the story of how Britain's quest for food drove its imperial ambitions. Collingham takes the reader on a powerful journey ranging from the sugary tea of Great Britain to the rum punch of Boston. Like Sidney Mintz or Margaret Visser, Collingham is a historian whose writing about food informs larger stories about human existence: about conflict and culture, about economics and politics. I was dazzled by Collingham's writing and her book also left me very hungry."

--Bee Wilson, author of First Bite

"The Taste of Empire has a hidden history: the menu, and how it changed the world. Lizzie Collingham has uncovered an epic that runs from domestic comedy to horror to the startling shifts that brought rice to America, maize to Africa, and tea to India. She makes it absorbing and utterly readable, mixing the huge economic story with exact and fascinating glimpses into past lives. You'll never see a biscuit tin the same way once you know how they were used in the Zulu Wars."--Michael Pye, author of The Edge of the World

"Beyond gold and glory, an insatiable lust for foreign foods drove the juggernaut of British imperialism. So shows Lizzie Collingham in this rich economic history, drawing on annals military, mercantile and domestic to reveal the complex routes along with the fruits of the colonial fields and fisheries were shunted into Britain's dining rooms."

--Nature

2012年冬天,我在伦敦念书。无数个月黑风高啃书夜里,捧着一杯加了奶的浓茶,遥想东方美食——火锅烧烤酸辣粉、虾饺云吞奶黄包。所谓去国怀乡之思,莫此为甚。 彼时和西班牙室友常常讨论一个话题,大英帝国赫赫威名,为何除了炸鱼薯条和司康,再也没有值得称道的食物留传给后世...

从英国殖民帝国各地食物相互交流和贸易的角度,讲述殖民历史,角度较为新颖。原产地不同的各种食物,不仅丰富了人们的餐桌,而且构成了全球贸易的重要内容。可以说,早在英国工业革命、英国纺织品征服全球以前,农牧渔产品就已经实现了全球贸易。 全球贸易的发展,国际运输技术...

不得不说,《饥饿帝国》是一本颜值超高的书,封套是暗咖啡色和暗红,金光流动,非常之美,捧在手上如同一盒精致包装的巧克力,这也趣味地对应着本书的书名——接下来我们要讨论的是食品。 将书通读一遍后,就会发现,名义上是写食物,其实内核还是写史。那些为了食物的趣味性而...
