Abstract
In chapter seven taste, food, and the cultures of cuisine emerge as key aspects of Cather’s writing of the body. A 1919 essay on food cultures (‘Roll Call on the Prairies’) leads into an account of the encounter between indigenous and European cuisines in Death Comes for the Archbishop. The chapter reads food narratives as foundational to Cather’s historical novels. Shadows on the Rock, especially, emerges as a text where cuisine becomes a way to explore cultural encounters, power, and colonization.
