This one day interdisciplinary conference brings together researchers with an interest in the culinary cultures of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to share perspectives on food, drink, consumption and literature. The nineteenth and early twentieth centuries see Britain develop a fraught relationship with food: as a commodity, a luxury item, a source of poison or nutrition; in abundance or in scarcity. Many of our most familiar texts from the period are riddled with allusions to their own relationship with food and consumption: from the \u2018eat me\u2019 and \u2018drink me\u2019 labels of Alice in Wonderland, to the seductive but toxic fruit of Rossetti\u2019s Goblin Market. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cDevouring\u201d provides a space to open up dialogue about narratives which explore eating, drinking, reading and their worth. With keynote addresses from Margaret Beetham (Salford) and Nicola Humble (Roehampton).<\/span><\/div>\n
