Appetites and Aspirations in Vietnam [Vietnamese]

By Erica Peters

This book explores how the Vietnamese used food and wine to establish power and social status during the long nineteenth century - from 1802 to the 1920s. A large part of the book is devoted to telling the stories of ordinary people (villagers, market women, highlanders, soldiers, artisans, but also officials, businessmen, and other powerful people), showing how they used food-related practices to improve their standing in society.
