The ambiguity of taste freedom and food in European romanticism

Between the political revolutions of 1789 and 1848 - Romanticism in its broadest sense - no other subject so directly challenged the notion of "good taste" in literature as food. To be "in good taste," a work of the high style excluded references to literal taste; culinary allusions in tragedy and lyric poetry therefore represented an ironic attack on literary decorum and a liberation from the constraints of figurative taste.
