Скачать или смотреть German Flavours on King George III’s Table in the 1700s

This paper considers how an immigrant family at the centre of the British universe retained and adapted its Germanness in the privacy of their own home in the later eighteenth century. It does so through a look at the royal taste buds, taking a careful look at tens of thousands of dishes that graced the household tables of Georges III and IV (1760-1827) in order to identify traces of Germanic cultural consumption at the heart of the British establishment.
