Exploring foodscapes through the lived body and the sense of place

The interest in this paper is to thematise the corporal experience of food consumption in the complex rhythms of modern lives. Human action and reflection is corporal, but in the dialectical movement between body and world, the perpetual movements of cultural practices influence corporal experience and, hence, a methodological approach must form a suitable framework for thematising the corporal experience of de-territorialisation in terms of food consumption. By applying „foodscapes‟ with reference to globalisation theory, this paper intends to capture a bodily dimension of globalisation capable of uncovering perspectives of the relationship between food and place and corporal experience.
