What About the Dishes?
Author(s): Diana Wall
Year: 2013
Summary
After the Revolutionary War, the former British American colonies began the long process of cultural separation from the metropole in England. This process affected many aspects of life, including the redefinition of gender relations. Here, I use the changes in the acquisition, appropriation, and consumption of dishes, their contexts of use, and the styles of the dishes themselves to look at this post-colonial process.
