Breaking Bread In Harry Potter

Analysis: Compare chapter 2:How to Read Literature Like a Professor-“Nice to Eat with You: Acts of Communion” to part two(chapter 11) of The Fountainhead. At the beginning of chapter 11 of The Fountainhead, it is December and the opening of one main building, the Cosmo-Slotnick building. Toohey wants to celebrate this occasion so he takes Keating out for dinner. Foster stated in How to Read Lliterature like a Professor, “Whenever people eat or drink together its communion (8).” Communion is the sharing or exchanging intimate thoughts or feelings.

After a bit of free time, they went to the mess hall for dinner. There was mashed potatoes, gravy and what looked like canned chicken salad. After one bite Cassandra was done. She thought the food was awful and it was about to be a very

A Polish man is dragged up and hung for theft. He does not die quietly though and his screams of rebellion caused everyone to enjoy their soup more. This became regular and the start of their night would often start with death. Only once was someone mourned by all and he was a child who had not even weighed enough to meet his end quickly. This young boy was incredibly beautiful for a camp and was loved by everyone and his unpeaceful death induced a corpse-like taste to the dinner because he symbolized innocence.

In the story, the main food item is gravy, which is used as a trigger for the narrator to reminisce about their childhood. This connection is made because the narrator’s mother made especially good gravy. The fact that the mother made better gravy than anyone else is a use of pathos,

Right after a hurricane warning was issued at the Glades, all the townsfolk gather at Tea Cake’s house and prepare for a feast. Janie cooks the meal, just like she did in Eatonville, but in this case, Tea Cake stays with her and encourages her by praising her young looks. Though Janie cooks and stays in the house, she is not rangebound like she is in Eatonville. Home cooked fresh beans along with other drinks and nibbles are served and everyone has a ebullient and mirthful evening. This meal is truly exemplary of communion because everyone, including Janie takes part in the evening, is comfortable with each other, and has a good time together.

Though an immensely important aspect of food is a nourishing supplement; it is not the sole significance of food in human’s lives. Food is symbolic. Food connects people. It is a collective activity everyone must experience; thus meaning it allows people to relate more easily between each other. There is no universal type of food in each society due to the fact that the world is multicultural.

Meals in literature often represent something bigger, bringing communities together in a form of communion. However, this is not the case; in The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver, the meals are ironic they help to show discord and strife among the characters of the book. She uses meals to foreshadow future events, reveal the flaws of the characters, and as the book progresses, allows for the reader to see character development. In novel, Kingsolver twists the normal connotation of a meal and makes it ironic in order to demonstrate the discord and strife that is commonplace throughout the book that shows the lack of community between the Prices and those they interact with for most of the book.

Everyone grows up eating what their family eats, and winds up enjoying the nourishment their family provides. Men, women, and children, raised from their heritage and food preferences, will continue on for generations. Yes, they will branch out and try new products, possibly adding them to their diet, but they will always find the food of their culture as comfort or ‘homey’ food. Therefore, food is a major part of cultures all over the

Food has been considered as a staple of life since the beginning of time. As humans we relate to food as provision, security, and happiness. Simply stated, food symbolizes an essential need in life. Which is why one of the most pronoun poets of our time, Kevin Young, relies on food to give abstract ideas somewhat of a concrete relationship. For example, from his piece Ode to the Midwest: I want to be doused in cheese

While both sex and sibling behavioral issues aren’t often related to cooking, both Elaine Magarrell and Sally Croft are able to integrate these themes into their poems. In both of the poems “The Joy of Cooking”, by Elaine Magarrell, and “Home Baked Bread”, by Sally Croft, the authors use different types of imagery and figurative language in order to convey a completely different idea through the art of cooking. Both authors use rather explicit ideas and themes in their writing, and use remarkable figurative language and imagery in order to convey their themes. The poem “Home-Baked Bread” is an obvious play on words.

Culture and memories are expressed through food. Everyone can identify themselves with a concrete culture and in every group there are numerous food dishes that satisfies one, or brings back peerless memories and feelings only they can relate to.
