  • Myriad Hues of Culinary Experiences in the Novels of Khaled Hosseini
    ====================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 19:1 January 2019 India’s Higher Education Authority UGC Approved List of Journals Serial Number 49042 ====================================================================== Myriad Hues of Culinary Experiences in the Novels of Khaled Hosseini Susy Antony, Assistant Professor ======================================================= Culinary experiences in literature are mines of personal and social trends. They enrich the readers with the cultural aspects of the places where the novels are set. Food fosters a deep bond among people. At times food becomes symbolic of the state of mind the characters are in. Khaled Hosseini’s novels, A Thousand Splendid Suns and And the Mountains Echoed offer myriad ways of exploring food metaphors. They enhance the readers’ comprehension of personal, social and ethnic mind frames of the people of Afghanistan. The Diaspora in And the Mountains Echoed takes culinary experiences to a different level. The therapeutic value of food needs to be ascertained in this context. The communal aspect of Afghan life revolves around the common tandoor (stove), where the women get together to cook food for themselves and their families. In A Thousand Splendid Suns, Mariam’s transformation from a girl to a wife happens when she takes the dough to the common fireplace to bake bread. The women of the area come together, exchange stories of their lives with the tandoor as the backdrop. Mariam is transported from her native village Herat to the vibrant city life of Kabul. This has great significance as she was born a harami, an illegitimate child and was living with her mother in the outskirts of Herat, as a social outcast, before being married to Rasheed from Kabul.

III SECTIO N 2018 Ivana Styková Matej Bel University. Department of European Cultural Studies, Slovakia ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4557-0616 [email protected] Exotic Cuisine in a Translatological Context Egzotyczna kuchnia w kontekścieUMCS translatologicznym Summary: The aim of this article is to provide the reader with very specific customs in national cuisines, especially Afghan and Iranian. The food is an essential part of the Muslim culture. As novels from exotic environments have appeared on our book market, it is necessary to think of possible translatological solutions of so-called culture-motivated expressions. We have chosen two novels for our analysis. Both novels are originally written in English and set in the Muslim countries. Keywords: food; exoticism; translation; culture-motivated expressions; Muslim culture INTRODUCTION Despite the refugee crisis in Europe and its influence on Europeans’ lives, the Muslim world is still far distant, unknown and mysterious for Europeans. Understanding “otherness” of cultures varies as the countries are recognized throughout their “image” or so-called cultural stereotypes. They can be under- stood as a culturally-based belief (e.g. one referring to attributes of culture, in- cluding race, ethnicity, religion, sometimes also sexual orientation or appearance) Pobrane z czasopisma Annales N - Educatio Nova http://educatio.annales.umcs.pl Data: 02/10/2021 13:09:14 196 Ivana Styková that everybody who is a member of a certain group tends to behave in some fixed pattern traditionally (and often falsely) attributed to that group1.
