Description:
Cornell University Press, 2008-08-20. Hardcover. Good. 9x6x1. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Scattered underlining and markings. <br> "Marcy Norton's fascinating, beautifully illustrated, and deeply researched book traces the history of chocolate and tobacco as each crossed the Atlantic in the early modern era. Sacred Gifts, Profane Pleasures draws on a rich and varied array of sources, including artwork, shipping registers, religious treatises, medical manuals, Inquisition records, and poetry. Norton delineates how Iberians emulated and adapted American habits as they sought to fit tobacco and chocolate into their religious worldviews, medical practices, habits of sociability, and economic systems. This original and pathbreaking work deserves a wide readership." - Alison Games, Georgetown University
