Alcoholic Drinks Of The Middle Ages - Wine Anonymous Never did a great man hate good wine. Francois Rabelais (Frenchwriter 1483 1553) Mead! Melomel! Metheglyn! Drink of the ancients. http://users.stargate.net/~mshapiro/cwine.html
Extractions: Wine, as we all know, is the fermented juice of the grape. To some, the term may also include the more generic form of fermented juice of any fruit, though the purists among us would certainly beg to differ. Be that as it may, wine, from grape juice or otherwise, has been made and enjoyed throughout the ages. The following quotes, covering a span of about 2000 years will plainly testify to this. (I feel quite certain that the original authors of these lines would in most cases agree that the same could be said about virtually any form of alcoholic beverage): Mead! Melomel! Metheglyn! Drink of the ancients. Nectar of the gods! By any name, we are still talking about the same beverage, or family of beverages; honey wine and its many varia- tions. The ingredients of a true mead are only two honey and water. This mixture, however, is slow to ferment and also slow to age. Honey lacks the acids and tannins which yeast needs to thrive. There are, however, several ways around this problem. A melomel is a fermented beverage from any fruit juice with the addition of honey. By using a fruit juice base instead of water, many of the required nutrients and acids which honey lacks are supplied by the juice. Several fruits were used so often for this purpose within the period of our study that specific names were developed for melomels made from them. Among these drinks are piment , made from grapes, cyser , made from apples, morath , made from mulberries and perry

Extractions: You should thank your lucky stars you live in the twentieth century, bucko. Let me tell you about ... corncobs. You may not believe this, but it was once common practice in rural America to leave a corncob hanging from a string in the outhouse for purposes of personal hygiene. The string, I gather, was to permit the cob to be reused. For those who were punctilious in these matters, or else blessed with an abundance of corncobs, a box of disposable cobs might be provided instead. In coastal regions, the cob might be replaced by a mussel shell. For those who had access to it, paper from discarded books or newspapers was often preferred to either of the foregoing. The meteoric growth of the Sears Roebuck company, for instance, is thought to be partly attributable to the protean nature of its catalogs, which, historians tells us, might serve a family of regular habits for an entire season. As with the cob, the catalog would be hung in the outhouse on a string and pages torn off as needed. It is said the use of coated stock, which was nonabsorbent, was a source of great consternation to farm families when Sears began printing color pictures in the catalog earlier in this century. English lords, in attempting to teach their sons to be cultivated gentlemen, often advised purchasing an inexpensive volume of verse for use in the loo. The idea, of course, was that while you were sitting there in a contemplative state you would be able to read a few stanzas, subsequent to which the paper could be put to other ends, so to speak. It has not escaped my notice that my magnum opus, The Straight Dope: A Compendium of Human Knowledge, is also well suited for this purpose. Indeed, in the next edition we are thinking about perforating the pages, for maximum convenience.

Enter Rabelais, Laughing Reviews Francois Rabelais (1483?1553) is a difficult and often misunderstoodauthor, whose reputation for coarse Rabelaisian jesting and Gargantuan http://hallpoetry.com/history_criticism/1622.shtml
Extractions: Francois Rabelais (1483?-1553) is a difficult and often misunderstood author, whose reputation for coarse "Rabelaisian" jesting and "Gargantuan" indulgence in food, drink, and sex is highly misleading. He was in fact a committed humanist who expressed strong views on religion, good government, education, and much more through the mock-heroic adventures of his giants. While most books about Rabelais have relatively little to say about his comedic genius, Enter Rabelais, Laughing analyses the many sides of Rabelais's humor, focusing on why his writing was so hilariously funny to sixteenth-century readers. On a broad level, Enter Rabelais, Laughing serves as an introduction to French Renaissance literature and exhibits a lucid writing style, free of jargon. To Rabelais scholars in particular it offers a thorough and innovative analysis that corrects misconceptions and questions commonly held views.
