Abstract:

The language of food is one of the most complex, profound and communicative languages in all communities. Semioticians such as Gianfranco Marrone have revealed that we use food to signify the world and to give different meanings to the world. The purpose of this research comes from this character of food, food as language, as communication practice which has specific codes and rites as Roland Barthes, Marcel Danesi, and Jean-Jacques Boutaud confirmed. We intend to place our approach in the field of tradition, in the field of cultural heritage as a form of cultural resistance. To this purpose, we will assess the cultural resistance through a semiotic approach, from the identification of the element of cultural heritage to its contemporary discourse. We will follow the food heritage route as a form of resilience through the eCultfood research project and heritage communication through the Romanian communication campaign entitled "100 fire recipes".
