| This essay examines women’s articulation of hunger across a range of texts from women’s suffrage cookbooks of the Reconstruction and Progressive Eras in the United States to current women’s food blogs. It argues that these forms attempt to leverage food’s power to connect and empower women, but find their own limits within what Kyla Wazana Tompkins identifies as the reification and reproduction of “the chaste, white body” in Racial Indigestion (2012). Though two seemingly disparate forms, both suffrage cookbooks and food blogs feature women writing to other women about food and communicating a set of aesthetic and cultural values through the experiences of cooking and eating. Both The Woman Suffrage Cookbook (c. 1886), edited by Hattie Burr, and The Suffrage Cook Book (1915), edited by L. O. Kleber, were compiled and circulated in support of women’s voting rights. Through the recipes included in these texts, the women who contributed to them simultaneously express hunger for delicious food and for a political voice, two orally-driven desires. Although written and shared for personal enjoyment rather than explicit political ends, women’s food blogs also continue to articulate hunger for nourishment as well as community. Across both forms, the desire to express both physical and political hungers is limited by a simultaneous need to impose order around the embodied experience of eating and sharing food experiences. Tompkins’s reading of Sylvester Graham’s prescription of health as eliminating food items that would disrupt the intact body, and by association, a white social order, along with Minh-Ha T. Pham’s theory of “taste work” and “racial aftertastes” in Asians Wear Clothes on the Internet (2015), provide a theoretical lens through which to read these texts and their circulation of gendered, classed, and racial values. As modes of writing that satisfy a deeper hunger for other women’s experiences, the suffrage cookbooks and food blogs limit their own potential to engage food as a tool for connection and empowerment by inhabiting a subject position of uninterrogated whiteness and class privilege.

这篇文章考察了一系列文本中女性对饥饿的表达,从美国重建和进步时代的女性选举权烹饪书到当前的女性美食博客。它认为,这些形式试图利用食物的力量来联系和赋予女性权力,但在凯拉·瓦扎娜·汤普金斯(Kyla Wazana Tompkins)在《种族消化不良》(2012)中指出的“纯洁的白人身体”的具体化和复制中,发现了自己的局限性。虽然这是两种看似不同的形式,但选举权烹饪书和美食博客的特点都是女性通过烹饪和饮食的经历向其他女性写信,并传达一套审美和文化价值观。哈蒂·伯尔(Hattie Burr)编辑的《妇女选举权烹饪书》(1886年)和l·o·克莱伯(L. O. Kleber)编辑的《妇女选举权烹饪书》(1915年)都是为了支持妇女的投票权而编纂和传播的。通过这些文本中包含的食谱,为这些食谱做出贡献的女性同时表达了对美味食物和政治声音的渴望,这是两种口头驱动的欲望。虽然女性的美食博客写作和分享是为了个人享受,而非明确的政治目的,但她们也继续表达对营养和社区的渴望。在这两种形式中,表达身体和政治饥饿的愿望都受到了限制,因为同时需要围绕具体的饮食体验和分享食物体验强加秩序。汤普金斯将西尔vester Graham的健康处方解读为消除会破坏完整身体的食物,并通过联想,建立一个白人社会秩序,以及明哈·t·范(Minh-Ha T. Pham)在《亚洲人在互联网上穿衣服》(2015)中提出的“味觉工作”和“种族回味”理论,提供了一个理论视角,通过这个视角来解读这些文本及其性别、分类和种族价值观的循环。作为一种满足对其他女性经历的更深层次渴望的写作模式,选举权烹饪书和美食博客限制了她们将食物作为联系和赋权工具的潜力,因为她们占据了一个不容置疑的白人和阶级特权的主体位置。《食品研究研究生杂志》首页上的饥饿:阅读苏怒烹饪书和食品博客

| Is food more than a “lens”? Within the field of food studies, food has been utilized as a “lens” for analyzing manifold aspects of human life. However, I suggest that treating food merely as a “lens” does not necessarily illuminate the particularities and peculiarities of food as a research object. What is specific about food? To deal with this question, I consider a focus on the materiality of eating. Inspired by approaches developed in science and technology studies (STS), food anthropology, practice theory, and feminist materialisms, I reflect on some of remarkable characteristics in the encounter between foods and bodies. My results include thought experiments on danger, destruction, routine, and crisis, as well as a fresh look at questions of digestion and metabolism. In doing so, I demonstrate ways to support the quest for foundational theorization within the field of food studies. Whether seeking theoretical synthesis or epistemological clash, I am convinced that new configurations of interdisciplinarity, especially across the longstanding divide between humanities and sciences, could ultimately help to provoke renewed conversation about food as an object of study. At the end of this essay, the question remains open for debate: what is special about food? Graduate Journal of Food Studies More Than a Lens: Re ections on Eating, Materiality, and Practice

This study attempts to examine governmental complicity with corporate malfeasance; it interprets how the original trust doctrine has been misapplied by federal agencies in such a way that the practice of internal colonialism subsidizes corporate control over indigenous peoples‘ lands and resources. These governmental policies are veiled under the rhetoric that utilitarianism promotes the well-being for the people of the American West. However, utilitarian practices come at the sacrifice of ―the others.‖ Utilitarian logic supports policies, which promote the commodification of nature. As long as the goal of furthering production for the greatest sum of good for the majority is satisfied, the others‘ interests become, from a bureaucratic standpoint, inconsequential. 5 5 Giancarlo Panagia is an Assistant Professor of Justice Studies at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, Utah.
