pintoresco y anecdótico de la popular figura cervantina.

Comenzando con esta entrada introductoria, iremos ofreciendo en los próximos meses, y tal vez años, comentarios acerca del hambre y la comida según se van encontrando en cada capítulo de la novela.
Entre lo mucho que sobe el tema se puede encontrar en la red, valdría destacar la página que el Instituto Cervantes le dedica a la gastronomía en El Quijote:

It is common knowledge, even among those who have not read the
novel, that Cervantes’ masterpiece—not to mention other works of his—offers not
little material for the enjoyment of a present day public obsessed with food
and all things related to gastronomy. As it is, many are the cooking books,
internet pages and Youtube videos
that deal with what could be termed in fashionable parlance the gastronomy of
DQ. A study an reproduction of regional food of the period seems an obvious and
admirable task related to the understanding and interpretation of the novel,
but mostly serves the curiosity of food aficionados and tourist in search of
the picturesque and anecdotic about Cervantes’ popular character.
The objective of our project, instead, is to create an index of all references in the novel to food and hunger, as they are subjects very much present not only in Cervantes' work, but also in the literature of the Spanish Golden Age.
Starting with this entry, we will be offering in the following month, and probably years, chapter by chapter commentaries about food and hunger as treated in the novel.
