520    "Mămăligă, maize porridge or polenta, is a universally 
       consumed dish in Romania and a prominent national symbol. 
       But its unusual history has rarely been told. Alex Drace-
       Francis surveys the arrival and spread of maize 
       cultivation in Romanian lands from Ottoman times to the 
       eve of the First World War, and also the image of mămăligă
       in art and popular culture. Drawing on a rich array of 
       sources and with many new findings, Drace-Francis shows 
       how the making of mămăligă has been shaped by global 
       economic forces and overlapping imperial systems of war 
       and trade. The story of maize and mămăligă provides an 
       accessible way to revisit many key questions of Romanian 
       and broader regional history. More generally, the book 
       links the history of production, consumption, and 
       representation. Analyses of recipes, literary and popular 
       depictions, and key vocabulary complete the work."--
