Physiologie du goût by Brillat-Savarin
"Physiologie du goût" by Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin is a foundational gastronomic work published in 1826. This treatise blends philosophy, science, and social observation to explore how food and dining shape civilization. Through aphorisms, meditations, and scientific analysis, Brillat-Savarin examines the sensory experience of eating, dining etiquette, and gastronomy's role in politics and society. The work argues that the art of the table transcends basic nourishment, reflecting a carefully constructed social order with
national and political implications. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
