Contribution à l’anthropologie de la consommation de champignons à partir du cas du sud-ouest de la France (xvie-xxie siècles) by Frédéric Duhart

“…Evoking the mushroom consumption by the South-West France populations leads first to think about the classification of living things, the social building of edibility and the dynamics of these processes. Once the « edible » mushrooms identified, we have to note the complexity and the variability of the gastronomic hierarchies and the diversity of mushroom consumption contexts. …”
