Food Consumption in Medieval Iberia (eBook, PDF)

From the banquets of kings and nobles to the daily struggle for the subsistence of the poor, food was already much more than a biological necessity in the Middle Ages: it was a social phenomenon full of meaning. In this book all the implications and meanings that food had on the Iberian Peninsula between the 13th and 15th centuries are analysed. Historical assessment of the region is particularly rewarding because of the quantity and variety of historical sources, and because of the coexistence in medieval Iberia of the three great monotheistic religions, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Taking both economic and sociological perspectives, every aspect of food is analysed, from the commercialization of food production to its consumption, and from the evolution of culinary techniques to table manners.

Orson Welles: The Road to Xanadu, Hörbuch, Digital, 334min

Insightful, incisive and enlightening, the first volume of Simon Callow's comprehensive biography of Orson Welles. Now in abridged audio, Callow's vastly entertaining chronicle of Welles's first 26 years seems even finer than it did in 1995. The author's ability to skewer his subject's evasions and lies while retaining critical affection for him is perhaps explained by the fact that Callow, an actor himself, understands the need to mythologise. Welles's innovative theatrical work in the 1930s has never been better described or analysed. Language: English. Narrator: Simon Callow.

Dog Training: 50 Dog Breeds Analysed and Behaviours Explained , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 202min

2-in-1 Audiobook Bundle Including Greyhound, German Shepherd, French Bulldog, Border Collie, Golden Retriever, Shiba Inu, Shih Tzu, Chihuahua, Pomeranian and Much More Choosing the perfect dog can be confusing, especially for first-time owners.... It's easy to fall in love with a breed and rush into buying a gorgeous Border collie, or an intimidating Doberman pinscher, but this is a mistake! Buying a dog should be a long, careful process - a new dog is, after all, a new family member and every dog deserves more than a loving home - they deserve the right loving home! There are a number of things that potential dog owners need to consider before making the leap. Does the dog breed you've fallen in love with fit in with your lifestyle? If you work eight hours a day, can the dog be left on its own in your home, or will it become stressed and destructive? If you have other pets, will the dog get along with them? Is the dog child-friendly, or will it quickly lose patience? It works both ways; a new dog must fit in with their owner's lifestyle, but new owners also need to have the skills and patience necessary to provide adequate care for their new canine companion. Prospective dog owners should ask themselves, "Do I have the time to give this breed all the exercise it needs? Do I have the energy to keep up with them? Am I willing to buy it a doggie jacket when the weather gets chilly? Do I want a mellow lap dog or an excitable adventuring buddy?" This book will analyze 50 unique dog breeds in terms of their protection ability, trainability, playfulness, exercise needs, and adaptability. Furthermore, it will analyze 50 typical dog behaviors and explain what they mean and how to address them (if they happen to be bad habits). If you're a prospective dog owner or even just an enthusiast, you need this book! This two-in-one book bundle consist of two best-selling books by Helena Troy. Dog Training: 50 Do ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Belden. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/082778/bk_acx0_082778_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
