Dans les premières décennies d’existence de la Jeune République américaine, des Etats comme le Vermont, le Massachusetts et la Pennsylvanie ont produit des cartes de grand format sur plusieurs pages afin de préciser et de consolider leur identité en tant qu’Etat dans le cadre de l’Etat-nation étatsunien émergent.

How Feeding Slaves Shaped the French Atlantic: Mercantilism and the Crisis of Food Provisioning in the Franco-Caribbean during the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
In September 1789 the Deputies for Industry and Trade of the French National Assembly published a short pamphlet whose main concern was the dietary habits of the 400,000 slaves of the French colony of Saint-Domingue.1 The Deputies were particularly interested in the relationship between bread made from French wheat flour and vivres du pays (local foodstuffs), referring to manioc, yams, squash, and the other crops cultivated on the island.

This article examines the debates over food as they have developed within geography in both the English- and French-speaking worlds, particularly in light of the recent interest in food studies both within academia and in the public sphere. Geographers, known for their disc…

Based on seventeenth- and eighteenth-century accounts written by and for slavers, this article investigates the provisioning of the French Middle Passage. As the transatlantic trade in African captives developed, foodstuffs for the feeding of both Europeans and Africans figured prominently in a specifically Atlantic system of commodity exchanges.
