Resumen
GARCIA MERA, Laura Catalina. Recipes and Cookbooks for the National Pot: The Construction of the Colombian Culinary Project in the Nineteenth Century. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2014, vol.50, n.2, pp.19-23. ISSN 0486-6525.
In Colombia, during the XIX century, the nation-building project conceived by the literate elites, considered issues such as the political and geographical organization, the establishment of a stable economy, and the formation of a republican government. This project, thought out by a male leadership also included a reflection on cultural topics and daily habits. As a result, between 1830 and 1882, spaces of women's domestic practices and interactions, like the kitchen, were influenced by the elite's ideological tendencies through the development of culinary publications. The present paper will discuss how culinary literature and recipes inspired on women's domestic knowledge were employed in the construction of Colombian national identity in the nineteenth century.
