Vitaly Zadvorny's new book is the first scientific study of ancient gastronomy in Russian. Written based on the analysis of ancient texts, it covers the period from the origins of human civilization to the end of the Antiquity era: the reader will learn which ancient powers were inclined to beer and which to wine, what spices were in use in Hellas, how the poets of Antiquity sang about dishes and feasts, and how the ancient Roman rich cooked such exotic game as peacocks and flamingos. Zadvorny's work includes the first complete, thoroughly commented translation of the oldest surviving European cookbook, Apicius's De re coquinaria. Vitaly Zadvorny is a PhD in philosophy, translator, editor-in-chief of the Catholic Encyclopedia, and the author of the book French Cuisine in Russia and Russian Literature, published by NLO.
