In the First Bridge course "WE ARE WHAT WE EAT? FOOD, ENVIRONMENT & IDENTITY IN THE ATLANTIC WORLD," we delve into the profound impact of various food resources on historical events, including both voluntary and forced migrations of populations. During our exploration in Bordeaux, we will dissect case studies by immersing ourselves in the old city and surrounding areas. Here, we will uncover the intricate processes of wine production and how environmental factors shape its characteristics. We'll also delve into the history and modern practices of oyster cultivation, explore the rich tapestry of regional cheese cultures, and examine Bordeaux's deep-rooted ties to Atlantic slavery through the historical sugar trade of the 18th century.
