«Une histoire mondiale de la table» is the historical essay by Anthony Rowley, published by Editions Odile Jacob in paperback (401 pages, in French).
Rowley traces the history of the table from prehistory to the present: a long dispute between ancients and moderns in which variant, variation and balance are recomposed. He adds anecdotes about the rabbit, the pig or lobsters and reflects on the strategies of the powerful, the wiles of the hungry and the dreams of gastronomes.
The work is part of Odile Jacob's 'Histoire' collection and includes bibliographic references (pages 382-399).
Recommended for readers interested in the history of food, gastronomy and social customs around the table.
