Ursula Heinzelmann - Food Culture in Germany

• Ursula Heinzelmann - Food Culture in Germany
• Greenwood Press | ISBN: 0313344949 | 2008-06-30 | PDF | 232 pages | 1.42 Mb
• The grown-up Germany of today is able to explore its cultural identity, including its food culture. For some years now, German food has seen a return to regionalism, and beloved traditional dishes have been rediscovered and revived, counteracting to some extent the effects of globalization and industrialization. As well, a host of new culinary traditions brought in with new immigrants makes for an exciting food scene. Food Culture in Germany, written by a native Berliner, is destined to become a classic as the best source in English for a thorough and up-to-date understanding of Germans and their food—the history, foodstuffs, cooking, special occasions, lifestyle eating habits, and diet and health.
• The Historical Overview chapter takes the reader on a culinary tour from ancient times through the Holy Roman Empire to the Lebensraum of Hitler and on to reunification of the two Germanys until today's return to normalcy. Chapter 2, Major Foods and Ingredients, highlights the classic German staples. Chapter 3, Cooking, discusses the family and gender dynamics plus cooking techniques and utensils, the German kitchen, and the professional chef as media figure phenomenon. The Typical Meals chapter gives an in-depth insider's look at how and what Germans eat today. Chapter 5, Eating Out, describes the wide range of opportunities for eating out, from grabbing Currywurst on the street, to lunching in office and school cafeterias, to meeting friends for coffee and cake at the Konditerei. German holidays and special occasions are elaborated on in the context of more secular and younger influences in Chapter 6. Chapter 7 covers the German diet and the strong interest in health in the country, with its holistic roots. Food safety, a big topic in Europe today, is also discussed at length. An introduction, chronology, glossary, resource guide, selected bibliography, and illustrations complete this outstanding resource.

Jewish Eating and Identity Through the Ages

• David C Kraemer, "Jewish Eating and Identity Through the Ages"
• Routledge | 2008 | ISBN: 0415476402 | 216 pages | PDF | 1,6 MB
• This book explores the history of Jewish eating and Jewish identity, from the Bible to the present. The lessons of this book rest squarely on the much-quoted insight: 'you are what you eat.' But this book goes beyond that simple truism to recognise that you are not only what you eat, but also how, when, where and with whom you eat. This book begins at the beginning – with the Torah – and then follows the history of Jewish eating until the modern age and even into our own day. Along the way, it travels from Jewish homes in the Holy Land and Babylonia (Iraq) to France and Spain and Italy, then to Germany and Poland and finally to the United States of America. It looks at significant developments in Jewish eating in all ages: in the ancient Near East and Persia, in the Classical age, throughout the Middle Ages and into Modernity. It pays careful attention to Jewish eating laws (halakha) in each time and place, but it does not stop there: it also looks for Jews who bend and break the law, who eat like Romans or Christians regardless of the law and who develop their own hybrid customs according to their own 'laws', whatever Jewish tradition might tell them. In this colourful history of Jewish eating, we get more than a taste of how expressive and crucial eating choices have always been.

• University of California Press; 1 edition (October 15, 2009) | ISBN: 0520255224 | 400 pages | PDF | 2.81 MB
• Spaghetti, gnocchi, tagliatellea, ravioli, vincisgrassi, strascinati--pasta in its myriad forms has been a staple of the Mediterranean diet longer than bread. This beautiful volume is the first book to provide a complete history of pasta in Italy, telling its long story via the extravagant variety of shapes it takes and the even greater abundance of names by which it is known. Food scholar Oretta Zanini De Vita traveled to every corner of her native Italy, recording oral histories, delving into long-forgotten family cookbooks, and searching obscure archives to produce this rich and uniquely personal compendium of historical and geographical information. For each entry she includes the primary ingredients, preparation techniques, variant names, and the locality where it is made and eaten. Along the way, Zanini De Vita debunks such culinary myths as Marco Polo's supposed role in pasta's story even as she serves up a feast of new information. Encyclopedia of Pasta, illustrated throughout with original drawings by Luciana Marini, will be the standard reference on one of the world's favorite foods for many years to come, engaging and delighting both general readers and food professionals.

Spicing up Britain: The Multicultural History of British Food (repost)

• Panikos Panayi, "Spicing up Britain: The Multicultural History of British Food"
• Reaktion Books | 2008 | ISBN: 1861893736, 1861896581 | 288 pages | PDF | 2,1 MB
• Among the cuisines of Europe, Britain’s has long been regarded as the black sheep—kippers, jellied eels, and blood pudding rarely elicit the same fond feelings as chocolate mousse or pasta primavera. Despite these unsavory stereotypes, British cuisine is anything but unremarkable today. Panikos Panayi reveals in this fascinating study that British cuisine has been transformed and enriched by diverse international influences.
• The last thirty years have seen immigrants flood British shores, but Spicing Up Britain reveals that foreign influences have been infusing British cuisine for the past 150 years. From the arrival of Italian ice cream vendors and German butchers in the nineteenth century to the British curry that permeates dishes today, Panayi chronicles the rich and fascinating social history behind the rise of a truly multicultural cuisine. The author argues that Britons’ eating habits have been reshaped by immigration, globalization, and increased wealth, and he explores how other cultures have woven themselves into British society through the portal of food—whether Anglo-Indian fusion dishes like chicken tikka masala, New British cuisine restaurants, or the popular home-cooked dish of spaghetti bolognese. Panayi reveals how these changes in British cuisine shed light on the role of multiculturalism in the construction of modern British identity: Britain is a diverse nation in which different peoples are united by willingness to sample the foods produced by other ethnic groups—but those ethnic groups are at the same time ghettoized by not moving beyond their own culinary traditions.
• A comprehensive and engaging investigation, Spicing Up Britain serves up delicious new facets of food in Britain today.

Bioactive Foods in Promoting Health: Fruits and Vegetables {Repost}

• Bioactive Foods in Promoting Health: Fruits and Vegetables
• Publisher: Academic Press | ISBN: 0123746280 | edition 2009 | PDF | 725 pages | 27,2 mb
• While everyone knows fruits and vegetables are beneficial to good health, it's increasingly seen as important to know which ones can be effective in treating specific illnesses. For example, which are good for cardiac care? Which can help combat and treat asthma? What are the safety concerns to be aware of when using herbs in combination with traditional medicines? Diet and nutrition are vital keys to controlling or promoting morbidity and mortality from chronic diseases, and the multitude of biomolecules in dietary fruits and vegetables play a crucial role in health maintenance. They may, therefore, be more effective and certainly could have different actions beyond nutrients however this science is still evolving.
• This book brings together experts working on the different aspects of supplementation, foods, and plant extracts, in health promotion and disease prevention. Their expertise and experience provide the most current knowledge to promote future research. Dietary habits need to be altered, for most people and the conclusions and recommendations from the various chapters in this book will provide a basis for that change.

A Companion to California Wine: An Encyclopedia of Wine and Winemaking from the Mission Period to the Present

• A Companion to California Wine: An Encyclopedia of Wine and Winemaking from the Mission Period to the Present By Charles L. Sullivan
• University of California Press | 1998-10-01 |ISBN-10: 0520213513 | Pages: 368 | pdf | 3.5 mb
• California is the nation's great vineyard, supplying grapes for most of the wine produced in the United States. The state is home to more than 700 wineries, and California's premier wines are recognized throughout the world. But until now there has been no comprehensive guide to California wine and winemaking. Charles L. Sullivan's A Companion to California Wine admirably fills that gap--here is the reference work for consumers, wine writers, producers, and scholars.
• Sullivan's encyclopedic handbook traces the Golden State's wine industry from its mission period and Gold Rush origins down to last year's planting and vintage statistics. All aspects of wine are included, and wine production from vine propagation to bottling is described in straightforward language. There are entries for some 750 wineries, both historical and contemporary; for more than 100 wine grape varieties, from Aleatico to Zinfandel; and for wine types from claret to vermouth--all given in a historical context.
• In the book's foreword the doyen of wine writers, Hugh Johnson, tells of his own forty-year appreciation of California wine and its history. "Charles Sullivan's Companion," he adds, "will provide the grist for debate, speculation, and reminiscence from now on. With admirable dispassion he sets before us just what has happened in the plot so far."

Fermented Foods and Beverages of the World

• CRC Press | 2010 | ISBN: 1420094955 | 460 pages | PDF | 10,1 MB
• Did you know? It’s estimated that fermentation practices have been around since as early as 6000 BC, when wine was first being made in Caucasus and Mesopotamia.

After covering the various preparation techniques and culinary methods, the book addresses the microbiology-phenotypic and genotypic characterizations, the identifications of functional microorganisms, the functional and technological properties, and issues related to food safety.
• The book also explores the functional properties of fermentation, how it improves product shelf life, ensures food safety, enriches nutritional supplements, and increases the probiotic functions in some foods. The rising popularity of probiotic and prebiotic foods and the health benefits they are known for are also discussed.

Maternal-Fetal Nutrition During Pregnancy and Lactation

• Michael E. Symonds MD, Margaret M. Ramsay MA MD MRCP MRCOG, "Maternal-Fetal Nutrition During Pregnancy and Lactation"
• Cambridge University Press | 2010 | ISBN: 0521887097 | 216 pages | PDF | 1,9 MB
• Improving clinicians' understanding of effects nutrition can have on maternal health and fetal and neonatal development can have considerable impact on achieving a healthy pregnancy and reducing childhood morbidity. This book defines the nutritional requirements with regard to each stage of fetal development and growth, placing scientific developments into a clinical context. Clinicians and scientists discuss: how the fetus grows and what macro- and micronutrients it requires; what happens when there is nutrient deficiency and when placental development is abnormal; aspects of infant feeding, both with breast milk and formula milk. Specific problems encountered in pregnancy that pose a nutritional challenge are also considered, including pregnancy in teenagers, multiple pregnancies and pregnancy in those who are vegetarians or vegans. All doctors, health-care workers or scientists who either care for women, their newborn and growing infants, or who are involved in research in these areas, will find this to be essential reading.

Klaus Kraemer, Michael B. Zimmermann, Jane Badham - Nutritional Anemia Guidebook

• Klaus Kraemer, Michael B. Zimmermann, Jane Badham - Nutritional Anemia Guidebook
• Publisher: Sight and Light Press | 2007 | ISBN: 3906412350 | PDF | 53 pages | 5.90 MB
• Two hundred million children under the age of five, mostly living in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, fail to reach their full cognitive, motor and social-emotional potential because of micronutrient deficiencies and inadequate stimulation. These children will probably fail at school, fail to achieve their income potential, and remain trapped in the poverty cycle. A tragic reality. In May 2002, the General Assembly of the United Nations re-emphasized that control of nutritional anemia should be one of the global development goals to be achieved in the early years of this new millennium. Sadly, there has been little documented progress in the global fight against anemia and WHO data shows that 818 million children under the age of five and women are affected by this public health problem, mainly in developing countries. About one million of them die every year. This shows the magnitude of the problem and highlights the urgent need for action.
• SIGHT AND LIFE has always championed interventions to address micronutrient malnutrition, including iron deficiency and nutritional anemias, and, as a result, has published a book, Nutritional Anemia. In a single volume it highlights for the first time all the critical factors in addressing nutritional anemia, with contributions from leading scientists in their respective fields. Each chapter addresses a specific issue in great detail. It has become clear that the effective control of anemia requires integrated solutions that are tailored to the particular needs and opportunities in each country. Components of any such an approach include micronutrient supplementation of the most vulnerable groups (particularly children and women of childbearing age), food fortification, dietary diversification and education, as well as control of diseases such as malaria, worm infections, and other chronic endemic infections. While each of these can help reduce the burden of anemia, none is capable of doing the job on its own.
• The purpose of this Guidebook is to give you, the reader, a comprehensive summary of the critical issues from prevalence data and statistics, to economics, through to the diagnosis, functional consequences and background information on each of the micronutrients believed to be directly or indirectly involved in anemia. This Guidebook does not contain all the information or give all the answers, but its intention is to give an overview of the latest scientific thinking and the challenges facing the world as we go forward in planning, implementing and monitoring interventions to address what is undoubtedly the biggest nutritional problem that the world currently faces. We trust that the information, knowledge and insights that you will gain from this Guidebook, will enable you to become a part of the solution and actively engage in advocacy, programming or on-going research to make a difference.

Indicators for Assessing Vitamin A Deficiency and their Application in Monitoring and Evaluating Intervention Programmes

• Eileen Brown, James Akre - Indicators for Assessing Vitamin A Deficiency and their Application in Monitoring and Evaluating Intervention Programmes
• Publisher: The World Health Organization | 1996 | ISBN: 0119516934 | PDF | 76 pages | 5.10 MB
• Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is the single most important cause of childhood blindness in developing countries. It also contributes significantly, even at subclinical levels, to morbidity and mortality from common childhood infections. VAD is the result of two primary factors: persistent inadequate intake of vitamin A that is frequently exacerbated by others dietary circumstances, and a high frequency of infections. An estimated 2.8 million preschool-age children are at risk of blindness from VAD, and the health and survival of 251 million others are seriously compromised.
• Heightened awareness of the role of vitamin A in human health has led to an international effort to eliminate vitamin A deficiency and its consequences as a public health problem by the year 2000. This is among the important end-of-decade micronutrient goals endorsed by the World Summit for Children (1990), the International Conference on Nutrition (1992), and the World Health Assembly (1993).
• This document is intended primarily for managers of national programmes for the prevention and control of micronutrient malnutrition, particularly vitamin A deficiency. It provides principles governing the use of biological indicators for vitamin A deficiency (VAD) surveillance, provides the rationale behind each indicator and its limitations and cut-off points for interpretation in terms of public health significance. For the first time, a series of non-biological indicators useful to identify high risk areas are provided and cut-off points for their interpretation suggested. Also included are indicators for monitoring progress toward achieving the goal of elimination of VAD as a significant public health problem by the year 2000.
• Elaborates basic principles for the use of 24 specific biological and ecological indicators in the surveillance of vitamin A deficiency. The document is part of the recent international effort to eliminate vitamin A deficiency and its consequences as a public health problem by the year 2000. An estimated 2.8 million preschool-age children are at risk of blindness from vitamin A deficiency, and the health and survival of 251 million others are seriously compromised.
• Addressed to managers of national programmes for the prevention and control of micronutrient malnutrition, the document offers abundant advice on the principles governing the use of biological indicators for surveillance, and explains the scientific rationale for each indicator, including its limitations and cutoff points for interpretation in terms of public health significance. For the first time, a series of ecological indicators that can be used to identify high risk areas is presented together with advice on cutoff points for their interpretation. Also included are indicators for monitoring progress towards achieving the goal of eliminating vitamin A deficiency as a significant public health problem by the year 2000. Annexed to the text are a ranking of countries according to the severity of public health problems caused by vitamin A deficiency, and several sample survey and reporting forms.

• Over the last decade studies have shown that physical exercise plays an important role in maintaining an individual's psycho-physical balance. In particular, it has been demonstrated that prolonged regular physical activity (now defined in scientific publications as chronic physical activity) helps to significantly reduce the incidence of neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases, which are often associated with ageing, while at the same time bolstering the immune system...

• Plant Food Allergens is concerned with a paradox of immense, potentially life-threatening significance to about 1 in 100 adults and 1 in 10 children. The paradox is that certain nutritious proteins from wholesome foods can act as if the were harmful, sometimes deadly poisons, to these people who possess an allergy to them. In order to study the complex problems of food allergy a EU funded network, called PROTALL was set up, bringing together a wide range of clinicians and scientists. This important book is largely based on the outcome of its investigations.

Edible Mushrooms, 2nd Edition

• Clyde M. Christensen "Edible Mushrooms, 2nd Edition"
• Published by University of Minnesota Press | Publication date : June 1981 | ISBN : 0816610495 | PDF | 139 pages | English | 5.24 MB
• Mushrooms have long been regarded all over the world as the most delectable and succulent of foods. Their peculiarly delicate flavor charmed the luxury-loving Roman aristocrats more than twenty centuries ago, as it charms people today. But most of us do not realize that the mushrooms we buy at the grocery store, either fresh or in cans, represent only one of the many edible kinds and that countless others make equally delightful eating. For edible mushrooms are to be found everywhere – in front yards, on shade trees, in parks, fields, and forests.
• All too often these evanescent plants are looked upon as strange, unearthly things, to be feared and avoided, if not trodden upon and destroyed. Yet many of these same mushrooms that spring up in such prodigal abundance are both savory and delicious, eagerly sought by the epicure but to be had by anyone for the mere fun of hunting and picking them. To those who do not know them, the best are made to share the reputation of the worst, and all are grouped together under the darkly suggestive name of toadstools, malevolent things that smack of night and thunder and pouring rain, fit company for goblins and witches!
• The choicest varieties of mushrooms cannot be cultivated or commercially grown but are available in abundance to those who take the trouble to find them. With this book in hand, anyone can, with confidence, gather and enjoy delicious wild mushrooms without fear of the poisonous varieties.
• Edible Mushrooms,a new edition of the 1943 classic guide “Common Edible Mushrooms”, describes in detail more than 60 of the most abundant and most easily recognized species. Clyde M. Christensen warns against the poisonous varieties and advises amateur mushroom hunters to become thoroughly familiar with the most common edible mushrooms and to avoid all others.
• This edition contains new full-color photographs, and new material on how mushrooms grow and how to identify and collect them. Christensen has updated the classification to bring scientific names into agreement with internationally approved nomenclature but retains the older technical names in parentheses for easy comparison with other guides. An enlarged section of recipes provides good ideas for making the most of a mushroom harvest.

• Beatrice A. Ojakangas, "Great Old Fashioned American Desserts"
• University of Minnesota Press | 2004 | ISBN: 0816644373 | 305 pages | PDF | 10 MB
• "Great Old Fashioned American Desserts" offers a diversity of desserts that span the various periods and regions of American cooking. Some dishes are accompanied by chatty notes, explaining, for example, that waffles were introduced by the Dutch in the 1800s. But these are mere embellishments, and the business side of this book is the generous assortment of enticing, lucid recipes meant to be used by modern-day bakers. Creole sweet-potato and old Arkansas vinegar pies are examples of "America's favorite dessert." The chocolate Kentucky bourbon-pecan cake and "Lazy-Daisy" cake (first baked, then topped with a brown sugar-and-butter topping) are among the more unusual cake contributions.
• Pastry and dough-based items include cream puffs and New Orleans beignets, while cooked fruit comes to the fore in baked pears with mint cream, plum duff and fresh berry tumble. Puddings and ice creams round out a collection that will nudge dessert lovers into the kitchen to recapture old favorites and discover new ones.

Robert Paarlberg - Food Politics: What Everyone Needs to Know

• Robert Paarlberg - Food Politics: What Everyone Needs to Know
• Oxford University Press | ISBN: 019538959X | 2010-04-07 | PDF | 240 pages | 1.26 Mb
• The politics of food is changing fast. In rich countries, obesity is now a more serious problem than hunger. Consumers once satisfied with cheap and convenient food now want food that is also safe, nutritious, fresh, and grown by local farmers using fewer chemicals. Heavily subsidized and under-regulated commercial farmers are facing stronger push-back from environmentalists and consumer activists, and food companies are under the microscope. Meanwhile in developing countries, agricultural success in Asia has spurred income growth and dietary enrichment, but agricultural failure in Africa has left one third of all citizens undernourished. The international markets that link these diverse regions together are subject to sudden disruption, as noted when an unexpected spike in international food prices in 2008 caused street riots in a dozen or more countries.
• In a lively and easy-to-navigate, question-and-answer format, Food Politics carefully examines and explains the most important issues on today's global food landscape, including international food prices, famines, the politics of chronic hunger, the Malthusian race between food production and population growth, international food aid, controversies surrounding "green revolution" farming, the politics of obesity, farm subsidies and trade, agriculture and the environment, agribusiness, supermarkets, food safety, fast food, slow food, organic food, local food, and genetically engineered food.
• Politics in each of these areas has become polarized over the past decade by conflicting claims and accusations from advocates on all sides. Paarlberg's book maps this contested terrain through the eyes of an independent scholar not afraid to unmask myths and name names. More than a few of today's fashionable beliefs about farming and food are brought down a notch under this critical scrutiny.

The What to Eat if You Have Cancer Cookbook

• The What to Eat if You Have Cancer Cookbook
• Publisher: McGraw-Hill | ISBN: 0809231298 | edition 1997 | CHM | 176 pages | 11,5 mb
• The authors intend this cookbook as a companion to their What to Eat If You Have Cancer (1996). Aimed at the 2.5 million Americans who undergo cancer treatment each year, the meatless recipes stress healthy and enjoyable eating while addressing malnutrition and other side effects of conventional cancer therapies. Thus we find such chapters as "Meals in a Glass" for those suffering from loss of appetite or sore mouths or throats, or the individual chapters on cruciferous vegetables and soy foods, both of which contain numerous documented anticancer compounds. Chapter introductions and sidebars discuss the cancer-fighting and other health benefits of particular foods and nutrients, give preparation tips, and describe less-common ingredients. Special food needs for underweight are given detailed consideration, such as recipe options of adding more oil or comparisons of protein powders and other supplements. A list of suppliers and a glossary complete this welcome collection.

Traditional Chinese Foods: Production and Research Progress

• Li Zaigui, Tan Hongzhuo, "Traditional Chinese Foods: Production and Research Progress"
• Nova Science Publishers | 2009 | ISBN: 160692902X | 342 pages | PDF | 6,2 MB
• It is generally admitted that the expression 'traditional food' refers to a product with specific raw materials, and/or with a recipe known for a long time, and/or with a specific process. China has a wealth of traditional foods such as Chinese steamed bread, Chinese noodles, Chinese rice noodles, Starch noodles (Vermicelli), Tofu, Sofu (soybean cheese), douchi (fermentation soybean), Chinese vinegar and many other foods. These traditional foods are an important component of Chinese people's diet and the basis for their food habits and nutrition. They also constitute an essential aspect of their cultural heritage and related closely to the Chinese people's historical background and to the environment in which they live. During the last few decades, the development of international food trade and the extensive urbanisation process which have affected life-styles to a large extent in many parts of the world have resulted in a sizeable decrease in the consumption of some kinds of traditional foods and a relative neglect in the cultivation of traditional food crops. Some traditional foods had withered away or are withering away. In recent years, as a result of food globalisation, the consumption of traditional foods has increased considerably and many of these foods are concurrent with easy-to-prepare, processed, semi-processed and high-tech foods. It was decided therefore that a book should be carried out to document existing Chinese traditional foods in China and to assess their nutritional value and contribution to the diet. Among many new works on food, however, few studies address the Chinese foodways, despite their enormous and continual influence on local food habits around the world. Even classic works on Chinese food provide us with only basic information about China itself, or interpret Chinese foodways in the restricted local food scene and within Chinese history. This new book, however provides, an up-to-date reference for traditional Chinese foods
• and a detailed background of history, quality assurance, and the manufacture of general traditional food products. It contains topics not covered in similar books.

Marzipan Magic: Animal Modelling Made EasyMarzipan Magic: Animal Modelling Made Easy

• Maisie Parrish, Jenny Stewart, "Marzipan Magic: Animal Modelling Made Easy"
• B.Dutton Publishing 2003| ISBN-10: 0953258866 | 48 Pages | PDF | 7,3 MB
• Review:
• Ms Parish has a wonderful talent and the modeled animals in the booklet are beautiful, but I found the physical layout of the pages to be cramped and the instructions lacked step-by-step photos.
• First of all the book is very small 8 1/4" x 5 3/4" and the text in tiny (8 pt) making it very difficult to read. I actually enlarged the pages on a color copier so I could read them without straining my eyes.
• Second, while the text instructions are very thorough, there are no detail photographs or diagrams to support the step-by-step written directions. There is one large photograph of the completed project and one small (3" x 2 1/2") group shot showing all the individual pieces (arms, legs, tail, nose, ext) that make up the finished piece. I'm not an experienced modeler, so close-up photo illustrating each detailed instruction would have been a great help.
• But regardless of the small text size and lack of step-by-step photos, the booklet is a little gem. The animals are so cute and with some practice, they are easy to reproduce

The Khwan Niamut: or, Nawab's Domestic Cookery

• The Khwan Niamut: or, Nawab's Domestic Cookery
• Publisher: University Of Iowa Press | ISBN: 0877453942 | edition 1992 | CHM | 170 pages | 13,4 mb
• The Khwan Niamut; or, Nawab's Domestic Cookery is a small book from an intriguing time in Anglo-Persian history. Now published in facsimile from the edition printed in Calcutta in 1839, this book embodies a curious concoction of languages, locales, cultures, and cuisines. An anonymous translator prepared the text, drawing upon a "small Pamphlet, in the Persian Language. . . ." It was published in Calcutta rather than Persia, avowedly for the "European Community" but presumably for the "Inglis-ha,'' as the English would have been called in Farsi, the Persian language. It reflects an extraordinary mixture of European involvement in the Middle Easta state of affairs often described as "The Great Game"that was played out through much of the nineteenth century in Persia, India, and Afghanistan.
