Synopsis
The Earliest Evidence of wine dates back to the neolithic age, and over the intervening 9,000 years it has been integrated into the broad sweep of history-never ceasing to be controversial... Wine has been embraced by some religions and rejected by others. It has been considered beneficial to health and happiness while being blamed for disease and social disorder. It remains widely consumed at both religious and secular celebrations and as part of the daily diet. 9000 Years of Wine tells the story of wine from ancient times, through the Middle Ages, and across periods of revolution and war in the modern era as it spread from Asia to Europe and then to the wider world. Rod Phillips explores wine's association with different social classes and genders, and plots trends in consumption and connoisseur-ship. He traces the history of wine as a source of pleasure, an object of anxiety, and a divisive cultural product. Book jacket., On the Guardian (UK) Best Books on Drink list of 2017 Humans have had a complicated history with wine for thousands of years. It has been a banal item in the daily diet and treated as a liquid treasure. It has been venerated as a gift from the gods and cursed as threat to social order. It has been considered healthy to drink as well as hazardous to health. In 9000 Years of Wine , Rod Phillips surveys this long story and places wine in the broad sweep of history. He shows how it has been linked to big social, cultural, and economic swings, how it has been caught up in wars and revolutions, and how it has had an impact on the lives of men and women for millennia., Wine has a deeper history than any mere beverage. Present at the earliest recorded points of human history, wine has been present at the heights of sophistication and the depths of debauchery, an integral part of religious ritual and a free-flowing social lubricant. This new edition explores the tourism and terroir-driven global industry of today while reaching as far back as Ancient Greece and Rome. On the way it stops at significant points in history including the birth of Charlemagne, Venice in the 17th century, trade in the Middle Ages and more. Celebratory and thorough, 9000 Years of Wine never lets the scale of history - wars, fraud, blight, colonization, Prohibition - get in the way of a good story or notable bottle.
