A propos de l'auteur

Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin was born in Belley, France, in 1755, becoming a lawyer and then mayor of his hometown. After fleeing the revolutionists in 1793, he was exiled briefly in the United States (where he continued his culinary investigations with equal zeal), until returning to Paris and afficher plus being appointed judge in the court of appeals. He spent the last twenty-five years of his life living peacefully and writing The Physiology of Taste. Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher transformed thoughts and observations about food into literature and is widely acknowledged as the creator of the genre we now call "food writing." In a career that extended over seven decades until her death in 1992, she wrote twenty-six books, inspiring three generations of readers. afficher moins

Misto de receitas gastronômicas, aforismos e meditações, esta iguaria literária é a verdadeira certidão de nascimento do gênero e seu maior clássico. A fisiologia do gosto , verdadeira certidão de nascimento da gastronomia, é um clássico escrito para paladares delicados e desapressados. Não é obra para quem quer matar a fome, literal ou de saber, mas para quem se delicia com petiscos fugazes, sente um prazer quase espiritual ao folhear as páginas amareladas de um velho caderno de receitas manuscritas e é capaz de evocar o clima de uma época em que se preparava uma perna de vitela com três pombos velhos e vinte e cinco lagostins. Para Roland Barthes, trata-se de um livro paradoxal, "pois o que se exprime pela elegância do estilo, do tom mundano das anedotas e da futilidade graciosa das descrições é a grande aventura do desejo".… (plus d'informations)

The publication of The physiology of taste in the Penguin Classics series is a translation of La physiologie du gout, first published in French in 1825. A few years back, I was interested in writing wine and fine dining reviews professionally and collected and read some books in that field. While other reviews described this book as a must read, I was rather disappointed. I can only say that is this is perhaps due to the early publication date. The book may be remarkable in this form for the genre, but both modern cookbooks as well as novels about gastronomy are much better.… (plus d'informations)

Hoy en día, cuando todo parece haber sido dicho ya sobre las delicias y secretos del arte de la cocina, la prosa de Brillat-Savarin vuelve a recordarnos que siempre queda algo nuevo por aprender y disfrutar. El alto magistrado de la Corte de París que sus contemporáneos describían como hombre serio, de mucho comer y poco hablar, nos sorprende en esta obra con un tratado gastronómico ya clásico, donde las más sabrosas recetas van acompañadas de amenos consejos sobre la forma de curar la obesidad o mejor aprovechar los placeres del lecho gracias a los cuidados de la mesa: un "Dime qué comes y te diré quién eres" indispensable para el buen vivir.… (plus d'informations)

Kulinaristisen kirjallisuuden klassikko on kokoelma herkullisia ranskalaisia kertomuksia pöydän iloista, ruoasta ja juomasta. Kirjasta voi lukea tryffelin eroottisista ominaisuuksista, suklaan sopivuudesta saarnaajille, kenraali Bissonista, joka joi päivittäin kahdeksan pulloa viiniä lounaalla ja lukuisista muista notkuvien ruokapöytien ihmeistä.
