This volume continues that tradition by discussing the phenomenon of exhibits on Jewish culinary culture in museums and galleries around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe first part of the book provides an overview of the cultural history of \"foodism\" and the proliferation of Jewish museums. In addition, it examines the role of cuisine in Jewish identity. It offers an analysis of the history and recent examples of exhibitions on Jewish culinary culture, a subject that has not received scholarly attention until now. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe second part complements this by offering a detailed case study of the book's subject. It showcases a 2022 exhibition in Budapest on the History of Hungarian Jewish Culinary Culture. Andr疽 Koerner was the co-curator of the show, thus he is able to offer an insider's account of its implementation - concept, scope, goals, audience, and design. He also openly discusses the compromises made and mistakes committed in the exhibition's preparatory work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis subjective account, quite different from the dry objectivity of catalogues, offers an unusual, behind-the-scenes look at how a complex exhibition like this is prepared. At the same time, the book's appendix includes images of the display boards and some of the exhibited objects - thus it can also stand for a valuable ex-post catalogue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andr疽 Koerner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9633867207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789633867204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Central European University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Andr疽 Koerner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44761133187327,"sku":"9789633867204","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a483cb5c-68c0-4776-9492-0bf9d1a5ee32.jpg?v=1706680465","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exhibiting-jewish-culinary-culture-andr-s-koerner-9789633867204","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
