CFP: Food and the American Dream
Proposals due February 13, 2023
Call for Chapters for Edited Volume: The American South in Ten Recipes
Edited by Christopher L. Ballengee
The Southern United States is home to many diverse communities, some historically linked to the legacies of colonization and slavery and others emerging more recently thanks to migration from other parts of the country and from abroad. The essays collected in this volume use food as an entryway to understanding the individuality and interconnectedness of these communities. Each chapter will focus on a single recipe as emblematic of a particular culture, region, or tradition such that the collection of essays comes to characterize the dynamic histories, cultures, and innovations of the American South.
