Expanded Course Description
This course, taught in Italian, focuses on food in the arts to teach Italian history. Opera from Verdi and Puccini sing of wedding banquets and caffè disputes. Paintings from Caravaggio and Arcimboldo reveal Renaissance repasts and Baroque feasts in vivid detail. Close readings of cookbooks and recipes will show how playwrights and painters prepared their daily minestra. We will contextualize the workshops and close readings with series of short lectures devoted to Italian culinary history. By studying masterpieces from the Renaissance to the present day through the lively and accessible theme of food, you will conclude this course with a knowledge of modern Italian history and culture that is as memorable as it is delicious.
