Bread in the Mediterranean: An 80-page Luxury Edition of the European Art Museum<\/h2>\n

\"A little bread, a crust, a crumb<\/em><\/p>\n

Can keep the soul alive\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)<\/em><\/p>\n

Bread has been praised more than perhaps any other food item throughout human history. And rightly so, because it is not just a means of nourishment, but an integral part of the tradition, culture and heritage of each place. As the basic means of survival, especially in earlier times, it is closely linked to people's lives, so that its presence goes beyond the narrow context of food. Bread is a means of religious rituals and accompanies customs and traditions at every highlight of everyday life: birth, marriage and death.<\/p>\n

The publication of the European Bread Museum of the Folklore Society of the Varnavas Museum (Municipality of Marathon) attempts to convey in its 80 pages, mainly through the power of images, the importance of bread in the Mediterranean and in the regions with which the Mediterranean shares a common path through the centuries. The images of bread as a means of food, but also as a kind of exhibited art from countries of the Balkans, North Africa, the Near East, but also Russia, Georgia and Ukraine show the common perceptions, lifestyle practices and highlight the particular living conditions and the uniqueness of each people's culture.<\/p>\n

As a record of culture and tradition, this effort aspires to be a small contribution to bridging peoples, building friendship and cooperation in difficult, turbulent times. Most importantly, it is a reminder that for ordinary, everyday people in every part of the world, feelings, difficulties, hopes and dreams are common and that there is much more that unites us than divides us. Like blessed bread...<\/p>\n
