Is wine just another beverage? Does it bring a beneficial intoxication to the soul or does it make it stumble into base instincts? To understand wine and to master its consumption, one must learn about it and discover its secrets.
From founding myths to binge drinking practices, this book, which is a condensed version of a doctoral thesis in educational sciences, shows how wine, through its psychotropic powers and by opening up to an altered state of consciousness, has become a very unique product.
It is the subject of a social construction that evolves over time, places, and history. The question of wine sparks debates that, in some cases, concern almost all members of a given society and its institutions. In order to address its multiple historical, geographical, political, agronomic, medicinal, and religious aspects,
Laurence Zigliara takes us from the origins of the vine and wine to the present day, where education stands as the mistress of the ceremony.
Learning about wine then allows us not just to drink an alcoholic beverage, but to consume a moment of history, geography, and culture.
