ENG 117 - Reads and Eats: Introduction to Food and Literature

Food is a necessity for life. Food is also a product of labor, a site of pleasure, and a social and cultural practice that carries meaning. In this class, we will explore how all these aspects of food and eating culture emerge in literary texts, and the way our readings of familiar texts might change when we attend more carefully to the role of food. We will be especially attuned to the relationship between food and such identity categories as gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, and class.
