This volume of essays surveys gastronomy across global literary modernisms. Modernists explore public and domestic spaces where food and drink are prepared and served, as much as they create them in the modernist imagination through narrative, language, verse, and style. Modernism as a cultural and artistic movement also highlights the historical politics of food and eating. As the chapters reveal, critical trends in food studies alert us to many social concerns that emerge in the modernist period because of expanding food literacy and culture. The result is that food production, consumption, and scarcity are abiding themes in modernist literature and culture, reflecting tensions amidst colonial, agricultural, and industrial settings.

As the first book-length study to bring the fields of modernism and food studies together, Modernism and Food Studies anchors the burgeoning field of modernist food studies. This volume collects theoretically and methodologically diverse essays that investigate modernist representations of food, broadly treated in phases from production to distribution and consumption. By exploring the profound relationship between modernist aesthetics and the new food cultures of modernity, Modernism and Food Studies uncovers new links between seemingly disparate spaces, cultures, and artistic media in a globalizing world.
