本片向我们介绍了《牛津食品指南》一书的作者艾伦戴维森。戴维森前后花费20年完成了这部著作，书中囊括了几乎所有人能吃的东西，从土豚到西葫芦，从海豚到疣猪。这本书不仅是一本食品指南，更是人类文化、历史、习俗的全面写照。(文：life_is_good@YDY) The Man Who Ate Everything: The Alan Davidson Story Andrew Graham-Dixon presents a personal profile of the legendary food writer Alan Davidson, one of the unsung heroes of the culinary world. Davidson's greatest work, The Oxford Companion to Food, took him 20 years to write. It's an encyclopaedia of everything a human being can eat, from aardvark to zucchini, all catalogued in 2,650 separate entries. But it is much more than just a food reference book; it is a portrait of the whole human race, its many cultures, customs and histories, all revealed through the stories of what we eat. If you want to understand why the Genoese enjoy dolphin, how to cook a warthog, why the French call dandelions 'piss-en-lit' or who invented Spam, then 'The Companion', as it is known by aficionados, is the place to look. Alan Davidson died in 2003, just four years after his magnum opus was published. He had already achieved guru status among foodies and professional chefs but, in fact, he became a writer almost by accident. His first career had been as a British diplomat, serving in various overseas offices. A visit by his wife to a Tunisian fish market first piqued his interest in writing about seafood, and a later posting to Laos convinced him to resign from the Foreign Service and become a full-time writer. Through interviews with Davidson's colleagues, admirers, family and friends, Graham-Dixon creates a portrait of a remarkable man who not only compiled a unique record of humanity's eating habits, but also helped turn the study of food into a serious academic discipline by instigating an annual symposium at Oxford University where visitors can learn about, amongst other things, the role of vegetables in the conquest of space and how to make a musical carrot. 代码 Technical Specs Video Codec: XviD ISO MPEG-4 Video Bitrate: 1630kbps Video Resolution: 704x400 Video Aspect Ratio: 1.760:1 Frames Per Second: 25 Audio Codec: 0x0055 MPEG-1 Layer 3 Audio Bitrate: 128kb/s VBR 48000 Hz Audio Streams: 2ch Audio Languages: English RunTime Per Part: 58:54.mins Number Of Parts: 1 Part Size: 746 MB Subtitles: English Source: DVB-rip Ripped by: artistharry
