03|管它什么减肥,食物总有它的道理:聊聊与食物有关的情感、欲望和文化象征
-导语-吃,看似简单,却渗透入我们人生的每个角落。从三角贸易中的黑人奴隶将非洲味道带上奴隶主的饭桌,到日本本土宗教体系里将装载稻米的腹部视做神的寓所,再到堪称奇观的飞天意面神教在多个国家和地区被承认为正式宗教。食物不仅牵动着我们的情感,直击我们的欲望,甚至深深地扎根在我们的信仰与文化潜意识之中。本期我们从《饮食人类学》和《作为自我的稻米》两本书出发,思考从茹毛饮血的石器时代开始,直至今日,食物是如何链接人与人、人与家乡之间的情感;而我们又是如何在放纵与节制食欲中反复纠缠;试图思考地域、权力、经济等多重因素是如何与食物碰撞出火花的?同时,我们相信吃很重要!如果有什么不开心的,那就吃顿好的吧。如果一顿不行,那就两顿吧。 -收听贴士- 01:48 我们跟别人约饭,不仅仅是为了吃,很多时候也是为了进行情感交流 02:09 文学和影视作品中,吃饭的场景往往伴随着故事发生或戏剧冲突-《饮食男女》 04:15 无锡排骨的故事-食物常常是连接你与一座城市情感的桥梁 04:55 中国人含蓄的情感表达常常透过吃这个场景来表达-《天下无贼》 05:56 饮食偏好不仅仅有情感性的面向,还有生理性的面向 07:03 大酱汤的故事- 发酵的不仅仅是食物,还有人与人之间的情感 09:17 外省人与原乡亲人的情感联结在食物中迸发,-话剧《宝岛一村》里的天津肉包子 10:34 16世纪被贩卖到加勒比的黑奴,如何利用有限的资源重新创造家乡的味道-《饮食人类学》 11:20 回家的「仪式感」-高中母校的牛肉面 12:25 云南米线的故事-当食物跟你的情感记忆连接在一起的时候,细微的差别也可能会让「锚点」消失 14:27 婴儿与母亲的情感联结最早就是透过「哺乳」这一行为产生的 15:53 人类从茹毛饮血进化到如今,「吃」已经从本能行为变成了欲望的投射 16:50 在北欧的阿拉伯同学的斋月是平衡食欲和宗教禁忌的 17:13 人们对糖的复杂态度:对食欲的极端克制和对食物的极端放纵 18:52 糖最早是贵族的专供品-《甜与权利》,如今却被钉上了道德的枷锁 20:29 食物的优劣很多时候是跟它的稀缺程度相关的-冰淇淋被认为是伤风败俗的食物 21:58 人们对食物的评价从最早对于欲望的反思,演变成了一种跟阶级、文化和市场相关的消费 22:18 鲑鱼从最廉价的食物变成了如今的高级、健康的象征-《吃:食物如何改变我们人类和全球历史》 23:30 对于糖的抵抗还有一部分是出于对剥削黑人劳工的反抗-《饮食人类学》 26:01 为什么要把你对吃的欲望跟道德扣连这么高呢-996的日子里我们更需要「肥宅快乐水」的抚慰 27:00 二战时期,美军喊出了「为可口可乐而战」的口号-《饮食人类学》 27:48 食物与信仰的极端案例-飞天意面神教 31:30 农业其实跟宗教有密切的关系-《石器时代经济学》 32:30 到底是「人奴役了稻米,还是稻米奴役了人」 34:04 水稻和日本神道教的关系的典型:少女与口嚼酒-《你的名字》 35:00 女性常常在祭祀仪式里充当很重要的角色:女性到底是神圣的?还是物化女性的行为? 35:58 祭祀与食物的关系,祭祀中的仪式物品和禁忌会跟当地的物产有密切关系 37:54 稻米本身就是神的礼物,承载着信仰,甚至可以当作金钱使用-《饮食人类学》 38:20 「干饭人」而不是「干菜人」 38:38 食物的地域差异不仅在国家维度,在中国南北差异也很大 40:11 「食物」常常被用来区别他者和我群:不同国家对做土豆的方式也会不同 40:41 每一个食物被命名的过程就是我们的文化 43:30 食物在不同国家的融合-伦敦的咖喱、加勒比海菜、大酱版的风干羊排 45:47 不同地域和文化里的饮食禁忌 47:20 食物中的象征与隐喻-稻谷与日本天皇、中医里的阴阳调和、食补药膳、以形补形 49:00 我们赋予食物阴和阳的属性是否跟它的生产过程有关?-中国人的24节气 50:50 电影推荐-《美味关系》:透过对过去食物的演绎,也是讲过去的故事带到了现在,我们吃的食物也是我们的故事 51:52 结语-食物不仅连接着过去,也指向未来 52:30 下期预告-《不平等的童年》《父母:挑战》:东亚亲子关系的讨论 -本期提到的书与电影- 《饮食人类学》,作者:西敏司(Sidney W.Mintz) 《作为自我的稻米》,作者:大贯慧美子 《甜与权利》,作者:西敏司(Sidney W.Mintz) 《石器时代经济学》(Stone Age Economics),作者:萨林斯(Marshall Sahlins) 《吃:食物如何改变我们人类和全球历史》,作者:菲利普·费尔南多(Felipe-Fernandez-Armesto)译者:韩良忆 《法式料理圣经》(Mastering the art of French cooking),作者:朱莉雅·柴尔德等(Julia Child et al.)译者:林洁盈 电影:《饮食男女》,导演:李安 电影:《天下无贼》,导演:冯小刚 电影:《美味关系》,导演:桑德拉·内特尔贝克(Sandra Nettelbeck) 动画电影:《你的名字》,导演:新海诚 动画电影:《千与千寻》,导演:宫崎骏 -本期主播- 怀念奶奶大酱汤的花椒 云南米线必须是粗米线的花皮 连吃三天牛肉面的花生-音乐- 开场白-《甄嬛传》 Slugs and Bugs-《Food》

It is all about the story. We are all experts in story, aren't we? And every day amidst this current world crisis, we are bombarded with narratives. Some of these "geopolitical" narratives are based on good history. Some on very poor history. But how do you spot the difference? How do you know big historical comparisons like "Pearl Harbour or "Munich 1938" are flawed, when you don't know the details of events? You can with the help of stories.

"Hungary has no post-colonial guilt", intoned the retired academic and former Member of the European Parliament (MEP).

The Magellan Myth Uncovered
On 20 September 1519 the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan left Spain and headed westwards on a voyage that would subsequently echo through the centuries as the first circumnavigation of the earth. The riches of Asia were first tasted by the Portuguese in the late 1490s but the 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas reserved for Portugal the eastern-bound maritime routes to Asia. It thus became commercially imperative for the Spanish to find a western-route to Asia, and in particular to the riches of the Spice Islands in the south western Pacific where nutmeg, mace and cloves were to be exclusively discovered. Magellan's subsequent voyage is b...

Our guest is one of the finest imaginable. Felipe Fernández-Armesto is an eminent and hugely decorated author who had written extensively about maritime and...

Major Figures in Spanish Culture
02. Christopher Columbus
No one from Spain’s past is more famed, more hated or more misunderstood than Cristopher Columbus. Misplaced vengeance topples Columbus’ statues. Tweets traduce him. He was mendacious, egotistical, irrational, self-righteous, humourless, and mean. But he had virtues to balance his vices—including dazzling bravery, a kind of ingenuous charm, and a confiding nature. He was, moreover, sympathetic towards cultures other than his own, including Native Americans’. In this podcast, Felipe Fernández-Armesto, William P. Reynolds Professor of History at the University of Notre Dame, talks about this outstanding figure in Spanish culture. Presented by Maria Jenell Nicolas

The voyage was financed by a Papal grant and Spaniards were committed by Vatican decree to spread Catholicism to the new world. So how do we assess the role of religion in Spanish history, what have been the key moments...

Parecen preguntas fáciles de responder, pero no es así. Damos por hecho el concepto de humanidad pero la ciencia nos lo desmonta. Cada vez somos más parecidos a los animales y a las máquinas y la ingeniería genética nos depara nuevos retos a resolver. Llevamos años h...

Why Latino History Matters
To wrap up our history special, we explore why Latino history matters. We speak with historian Felipe Fernandez-Armesto (author of “Our America: A Hispanic History of the United States). Fernandez-Armesto makes the argument that if the United States wants to be a great nation in the future, it needs to embrace its history as a Latin American nation. Then we return to Laredo, a 96 percent Latino city on the US-Mexico border that’s also hosts the nation’s biggest celebration of George Washington’s birthday, to get a sneak peek at what our country’s Latino future might look like.

The Why Factor
Cookery
Why do we cook, and not just eat raw food like all other animals? Jo Fidgen hears that our ancestors first started to cook about two million years ago, and the advent of cookery coincides with our developing bigger brains, and smaller guts. Harvard primatologist Richard Wrangham argues that it was cooking that led to both these developments, as cooked food is easier to digest, and allows the body to absorb more calories from the food, thus making it possible to fuel a bigger brain. So cooking made us human. Historian Felipe Fernandez-Armesto adds another dimension to...

A Typical Latin American Country: the United States
Contributor(s): Professor Felipe Fernández-Armesto | In this talk Felipe Fernández-Armesto aims to traduce the Anglo myth that has dominated US historiography, by suggesting that regional approaches to US history have disclosed facts previously under-acknowledged: the country - in parts, especially - has a past that closely resembles that of most Latin American republics, and a future increasingly convergent with other parts of the Americas. Felipe Fernández-Armesto is the William P Reynolds Professor of Arts and Letters at the University of Notre Dame and the author, most recently, of Our America.

Durer's Rhinoceros
Neil MacGregor's world history as told through things that time has left behind. This week he is exploring vigorous empires that flourished across the world 600 years ago - visiting the Inca in South America, Ming Dynasty China, and the Timurids in their capital at Samarkand and the Ottomans in Constantinople. Today he examines the fledgling empire of Portugal and describes what the European world was looking like at this time.

The Aristocracy
Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the British aristocracy. The Greeks gave us the word aristocracy; it takes its root from ‘aristo’, meaning best and ‘kratos’, meaning rule or power. And for more than five hundred years Britain was ruled by a class that was defined, at the time, as the best. They founded their ascendancy on the twin pillars of land and heredity and in terms of privilege, preferment, power, style and wealth, they dominated British society. As the Earl of Chesterfield confidently informed the House of Lords in the mid-18th century, “We, my lords, may thank heaven that we have...

Slavery and Empire
Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss slavery and empire; two themes that run right through this country’s history. Britain’s imperial project dominated at least the last three centuries of our national life. Its advocates claim it was a civilising mission by which Britain spread enlightenment and improvement across the globe. Opponents have long seen it as a brutal business, with Britons cast as cruel oppressors out to exploit a conquered world. Is our imperial history so clear cut? What if Britons were themselves captives, either as prisoners of an imperial enterprise that sucked them in, generation after generation or...

Food
Melvyn Bragg explores the history of food in Modern Europe. The French philosopher of food Brillat-Savarin wrote in his Physiology of Taste, 'The pleasures of the table belong to all times and all ages, to every country and to every day; they go hand in hand with all our other pleasures; outlast them, and remain to console us for their loss' . The story of food is cultural as well as culinary, and what we eat and how we eat has always been linked to who we are or whom we might become, from the great humanist thinker Erasmus warning...
