About “Tasting Food, Tasting Freedom” by S. Mintz (assigned from day 1). Prepare a nicely written, short essay (400 words) and follow previous guidelines.Choose one (1) from the following specific themes for your essay:



  1. Please read carefully from page 17 to p.24 (chap. 2). What is your commentary? Write as an anthropologist. Do not quote from the books. If you do, make the quotation very short. Use Mintz’s book and Perspectives providing page number.

  2. Read from pages 38 (The Origins of Food) to p.47 and highlight one (1) theme that is closely related to one from “Perspectives”. You are free to choose from any chapter and section if it is justified. Make use of concepts or theories.

  3. Review all chapter six from the beginning to the end (p. 84-91) and write about what it was more interesting to you and why. Try to think about possible parallels (cross-cultural comparisons) and critically introduce some of the concepts learned in this course.\


For any one you choose, I need to read YOUR OPINION, AS IF YOU WERE AN ANTHROPOLOGIST MAKING USE OF ANTHROPOLOGICAL CONCEPTS, THEORIES, AND CASE STUDIES. GO BEYOND THE CONCEPT OF CULTURE, PLEASE.Please remember that CONTEXT is key, by this I mean where, when, who, how, why.
