       brief history of Singapore -- Making the past the present

520    "While eating is a universal experience, for Singaporeans 
       it carries strong everyday and national connotations. The 
       popular Singaporean-English phrase "Die die must try" is 
       not so much hyperbole as it is a reflection of the lengths
       that Singaporeans will go to find great dishes. In Eating 
       the Nation, Tarulevicz argues that in a society that has 
       undergone substational change in a relatively short amount
       of time, food serves Singaporeans as a poignant connection
       to the ever-changing past. Eating, the how and the what, 
       has provided a unifying experience for a diverse society; 
       a metaphor for multiracialism and recognizable national 
       symbols for a fledgling state. Using food as a category of
       analysis, and analyzing a variety of sources that range 
       from cookbooks to architectural and city plans, Tarulevicz
       gives the reader a thematic history of this unusual 
       country, which was colonized by the British and run as a 
       port within Malaya, but which is without a substantial pre
       -colonial history. In doing so, Tarulevicz moves away from
       the predominately political and economic focus of other 
       historians of Singapore, and provides an important 
       alternative reading of Singaporean society"--|cProvided by
