Italian American Foods Offered Not Only Sustenance But Also Powerful Narratives Of Community And Difference, Tradition And Innovation As Immigrants Made Their Way Through A City Divided By Class Conflict, Ethnic Hostility, And Racialized Inequalities.Drawing On A Vast Array Of Resources Including Fascinating, Rarely Explored Primary Documents And Fresh Approaches In The Study Of Consumer Culture, Cinotto Argues That Italian Immigrants Created A Distinctive Culture Of Food As A Symbolic Response To The Needs Of Immigrant Life, From The Struggle For Personal And Group Identity To The Pursuit Of Social And Economic Power. Adding A Transnational Dimension To The Study Of Italian American Foodways, Cinotto Recasts Italian American Food Culture As An American Invention Resonant With Traces Of Tradition.
