Synopsis Culture and Customs of Honduras by : Janet N. Gold
This comprehensive look at contemporary life in the small Latin American nation allows high school students and general readers to explore the many facets of Honduran life and culture. More and more Hondurans and scholars today are becoming aware of the diversity in the nation, and are realizing that rather than a single, homogeneous culture, Honduras is made up of many different cultures. Gold incorporates this contemporary cultural consciousness in her treatment of Honduras's regional and linguistic diversity as well as in her descriptions of Honduras's indigenous communities. Key elements of the work include a look at national identity and cultural diversity, as well as an in-depth study of indigenous Honduras. Other chapters examine religion, as well as daily routines, cuisine, dress, media, sports, festivals, literature and oral storytelling, traditional crafts, visual arts, and music and dance. Ideal for high school students studying world culture, Latin American studies, and anthropology, as well as for general readers interested in the subject, Culture and Customs of Honduras is an essential addition for library shelves.

Synopsis The Maya Indians of Southern Yucatan and Northern British Honduras by : Thomas William Francis Gann
In "The Maya Indians of Southern Yucatan and Northern British Honduras", Thomas William Francis Gann explores the rich cultural heritage and lifestyle of the Maya Indians living in these regions during the early 20th century. Gann's detailed descriptions of the indigenous peoples, their traditions, and their daily lives provide readers with a unique insight into a community that was largely misunderstood and underrepresented at the time. The book is written in a scholarly tone with a focus on factual information, making it an important resource for anthropologists, historians, and anyone interested in the indigenous cultures of Central America. Gann's narrative style is both informative and engaging, offering readers a window into a world that is vastly different from their own. The inclusion of photographs and illustrations further enhances the reader's understanding of the Maya Indians' way of life. Thomas William Francis Gann's background as an anthropologist and historian undoubtedly influenced his decision to write about the Maya Indians of Southern Yucatan and Northern British Honduras. His expertise in the field shines through in the meticulous research and attention to detail present in the book, making it a valuable contribution to the study of indigenous cultures. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Maya Indians and their cultural traditions, as well as to those with a general interest in anthropology and Central American history.

Synopsis Culture of the Fork by : Giovanni Rebora
We know where he went, what he wrote, and even what he wore, but what in the world did Christopher Columbus eat? The Renaissance and the age of discovery introduced Europeans to exotic cultures, mores, manners, and ideas. Along with the cross-cultural exchange of Old and New World, East and West, came new foodstuffs, preparations, and flavors. That kitchen revolution led to the development of new utensils and table manners. Some of the impact is still felt—and tasted—today. Giovanni Rebora has crafted an elegant and accessible history filled with fascinating information and illustrations. He discusses the availability of resources, how people kept from starving in the winter, how they farmed, how tastes developed and changed, what the lower classes ate, and what the aristocracy enjoyed. The book is divided into brief chapters covering the history of bread, soups, stuffed pastas, the use of salt, cheese, meat, fish, fruits and vegetables, the arrival of butter, the quest for sugar, new world foods, setting the table, and beverages, including wine and tea. A special appendix, "A Meal with Columbus," includes a mini-anthology of recipes from the countries where he lived: Italy, Portugal, Spain, and England. Entertaining and enlightening, Culture of the Fork will interest scholars of history and gastronomy—and everyone who eats.
