  • Zora Neale Hurston’s Culinary South
    Excerpt of a lecture Historian Fred Opie delivered at Harvard University in 2012 about Zora Neale Hurston’s Culinary South. Opie unpacks the courtship practices in Hurston's Eatonville, Florida at the turn-of-the-century as well as through the observations she made and the stories she collected while doing fieldwork throughout Florida, Louisiana, Georgia, and other parts of the South During the Great Depression as a WPA writer. At the center of these practices of course is food. The talk is rooted in what Opie found in researching and writing the book Zora Neale Hurston on Florida Food: Recipes, Remedies and Simple Pleasures.
