Un grande viaggio attraverso il compagno della storia dell’uomo: il cibo. Con passaggi verticali, attraverso il tempo, ed orizzontali, lungo la terra. Arnesta punta con tutta evidenza ad un lavoro di tipo divulgativo, privilegiando la freschezza della lettura all’approfondimento tematico. E lo fa con ottimi risultati. Dal cibo crudo, bacche, carne e pesce, al sushi ed alla tartare ci sono decine di migliaia di anni. E nei secoli l’uomo, spesso contestualmente in tutto il mondo, ha adeguato la sua vita alle modalità di raccolta e di cucina del cibo. Le armi per la caccia, gli strumenti per la pastorizia e per l’agricoltura. E poi la navigazione e la pesca, ed ancora le tecniche di osservazione dell’essiccamento al vento e del congelamento. Con una prospettiva sul futuro, sulla necessità di sfamare chi, degnamente o indegnamente, occupa questo straordinario pianeta e dallo stesso deve trovare i mezzi per andare avanti. Serve mandarlo indietro. Un bel libro, senza troppe pretese. ( )

I read this book back in 2003. Here is what I wrote in my journal at the time:

>>Finished reading Fernandez-Armesto's Near a Thousand Table. This history of food is a book to be savored; it is not fast paced, but it is a book with interesting content. The book is arranged on the basis of major revolutions in food history, but then we get to see how these revolutions affected human history. Some of these revolutions include the concept of cooking, the idea of eating as having ritualistic significance, and the idea of food consumption as a social marker (the concept of haute cuisine falls into this). A particularly interesting idea for me was the author's link between cannibals and vegans. Cannibals in ancient and primitive cultures would consume their slain enemies in order to gain their strength or bravery. Vegans eat vegetables in order to improve their health, and it can also have a spiritual angle. The common idea is that both consume food in order to improve their bodies and spirits. Also interesting to read were the narratives of food travels from one continent to another, and how this shaped history. Overall, this would be a book I would strong recommend. A similar title would be Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs, and Steel.
Today, I would add that a book like Cognac, which I have reviewed here, would be in a similar vein as well. ( )

Such. A. Slow. Read.

With just 224 pages of text, you would think this would go quickly. But oh the writing. Though this book is very generalized (obviously, 224 pages for a history of food?), the writing style is still very dry and academic. It absolutely does not flow well--each paragraph tends to be an example, so each paragraph means trying to figure out how it relates to the section and chapter topics.

But, I'm done. It was interesting, but I don't think I'll be reading anything else by this author. ( )

A disappointing cavalcade of facts with little novelty & no unifying big idea.
