[Commlist] new book: Food and Cooking on early television in Europe

New edited collection “Food and Cooking on early television in Europe. 
Impact on Postwar Foodways” (Routledge)

It critically examines the role of food programming on European early 
television and the impact this had on food habits and identities for the 
European audiences. It foregrounds various food programme genres, from 
travelog, cooking show and TV cooking competition, to more artistic 
forms. For the first time, it examines in one place eight European 
countries, from Portugal to Czechoslovakia and Britain to France and 
Yugoslavia, to explore ways in which television contributed to culinary 
change, demonstrating differences and similarities in which early food 
programme in Europe shaped and promoted progress, modernity, gender and 
national identities in both Eastern and Western Europe.
