Italian Identity: Italians and Food: Philosophy Of A Love Affair

Mar 27, 2015 720

April 15, 6:30 pm — 9:30 pm
Westchester Italian Cultural Center
24 Depot Square, Tuckahoe, New York

It is not a secret that Italian people love food: but where does this love originate from? How does it affect everyday life, domestic relationships, and even politics? Moreover, what role did the USA play in the transformation of Italian eating habits? And is the Mediterranean diet—the heart of the Italian food culture—destined to disappear? At the intersection of history, anthropology and psychology, the lecture intertwines well-substantiated reasoning with enjoyable anecdotes. Presented by Mauro Peroni, Ph.D. in Philosophy and Theory of Human Sciences.
