About the Book

English summary: This is the first Spanish textbook to use food as the vantage point from which to learn language and acquire cultural literacy. It presents a rich introduction to food and food practices across the Hispanic world. It serves advanced secondary-level/high school students and students in second- and third-year Spanish at the university level who are furthering their knowledge of Hispanic cultures. Information is organized according to topics and key concepts, with historical and literary texts acting as enrichment and support for cultural concepts. Each chapter is comprised of a main reading on a key topic (for example, Aztec food practices) and followed by smaller sections on particular concepts or artifacts related to the main topic. There are sections on related language expressions, reading comprehension exercises, suggested writing exercises, and topics for discussion. Each chapter also contains illustrations in the form of colour photographs and drawings, and includes suggestions for video and web links. The book has been successfully used in the author's university classes on food and culture over a number of years. It provides an attractive alternative to well-established curricular offerings because it allows for the discussion of culture and literary texts in a context that is both familiar and appealing to students. The textbook invites multimedia presentations that make the material and concepts easy to grasp. Spanish description: El libro ofrece una rica introduccion a la cultura para estudiantes de niveles intermedios y avanzados de lengua a traves del estudio de las practicas alimentarias. El texto presenta una vision global de los alimentos en el contexto de las diversas culturas y paises que componen el mundo de habla hispana. Combina temas de interes actual con la presentacion de artefactos y elementos relevantes de la cultura material, asi como la contribucion de grupos etnicos. Hasta la fecha ningun libro de texto destinado al estudio del espanol ha utilizado la comida como el foco central desde el que aprender el idioma y adquirir conocimientos culturales. Este libro esta dirigido a estudiantes avanzados de secundaria y estudiantes en el tercer y cuarto ano de espanol a nivel universitario. El libro puede utilizarse como una introduccion alternativa a los temas culturales y literarios tras finalizar el segundo ano de lengua gracias a la amplitud de los temas que trata. La informacion esta org! anizada por temas y conceptos clave, con textos historicos y literarios que sirven de enriquecimiento y apoyo para los conceptos culturales. Cada capitulo cuenta con una lectura principal en un tema clave (por ejemplo, las practicas de la alimentacion azteca), seguido por secciones mas pequenas centradas en conceptos o en artefactos relacionados con el tema principal. Hay secciones sobre expresiones linguisticas relacionadas con el tema, ejercicios de comprension de las lecturas, sugerencias para ejercicios de escritura y de trabajo individual o en grupo, asi como temas de conversacion y debate. Cada capitulo tambien contiene ilustraciones en forma de fotografias y dibujos. Este libro ofrece una atractiva oferta curricular, ya que permite la discusion de temas de cultura y de textos literarios en un contexto que es a la vez familiar y ameno para los estudiantes. El libro de texto tambien invita presentaciones multimedia que hacen que el material y los conceptos sean de mas !facil comprension.
