Much is known about Roman civilisation, yet it is often the most concrete aspects of it that we know the least. A question as trivial as “What did the Romans eat?” was not one which preoccupied most authors and even a perusal of Roman literature would likely give us an erroneous idea of Roman eating habits. Trimalchio’s banquet, described in Petronius’ Satyricon, is an orgy that has nothing to do with the Romans’ customary meals, and the only recipe book that has survived – the one written by Apicius – favours rare and sophisticated dishes.That is why Jacques André, a very meticulous philologist, gleaned from the gamut of ancient literature all available information about what the average Roman was most likely to eat. Only a scholar of his class –who, until his death in 1994, through his classes at École Pratique des Hautes Études, trained generations of Latinists in the reading and editing of ancient texts – was capable of producing such a comprehensive survey.
