SS2381 Anthropology of Food

Food is utterly essential (and often insufficiently available) to all human cultures, making the topic particularly rich for anthropological study. This special topics course will explore a variety of issues, including cultural food habits and taboos, gender and food consumption, food and identity, and the cultural economy of food. In addition to reading classic food ethnographies and watching films, students may conduct field work at local restaurants, farms, food banks and markets. Credits: 3.000
