“…Unlike the two more recent cookbooks that feature recipes from a range of musicians, Kill It and Grill It (2002) focuses on Nugent's individual narrative of hunting and preparing wild game for his family to eat. Nugent's book thus presents cookery as extension of the masculine practices of hunting and communing with the outdoors (see Mechling 2005), rather than as a purely domestic activity. Kill It and Grill It (2002) preserves the conventional associations between metal and masculinity, but the fact that it exists on the fringes of metal culture, while both Hellbent for Cooking (2009) and Mosh Potatoes (2010) more fully embrace a metal identity, highlights the significant cultural changes reflected by the more recent cookbook titles.…”

Heavy metal, a genre once considered a dangerous and transgressive force in popular culture, is now increasingly constructed as a light-hearted source of fun, comedy and entertainment in a growing number of popular cultural forms. Nowhere is this clearer than in the recent phenomenon of the heavy metal cookbook, whereby domestic cookery is (sometimes seriously, sometimes comically) reimagined as part of a metal identity. Such cookbooks reveal not only how transgressive cultural forms can become incorporated and domesticated by the ‘mainstream’, but also how transgression can be repurposed to suit the changing lives of music fans as they age.

“…In addition, SKS's archives and library produce content for the services of many oral history organizations". 34 Modernisation via digitalisation of former folklore collections also took place in Germany. The newest achievement is the Wossidlo 35 Archives (of 2,5 million items) in Rostock transferred successfully (2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014) into the digital archive WossiDiA, which has been available online since 2015.…”

“…Individual cooking is a fashionable modern hobby for both sexes (even children and youths are educated in how to prepare meals and cook them 34 ). Popular cooking TV shows and Internet presentations no longer warn men that the home kitchen is a space reserved for mothers and daughters.…”

CLU-SAL publishes monographs and edited collections, culturally oriented grammars and dictionaries in the cross-and interdisciplinary domain of anthropological linguistics or linguistic anthropology. The series offers a forum for anthropological research based on knowledge of the native languages of the people being studied and that linguistic research and grammatical studies must be based on a deep understanding of the function of speech forms in the speech community under study. His research focuses on spoken English, with a particular attention to narrative as well as verbal humor, and is rooted in the wide field of pragmatics. His monographs include Conversational Joking: Humor in Everyday Talk and the popular Conversational Narrative, which has recently been reprinted in paperback edition.He co-edited a handbook on phraseology and volumes on the Foundations of Pragmatics and on Humor in Interaction, which has also seen a reprint in paperback. After many years as Special Issues Editor, he is now Co-Editor in Chief of the Journal of Pragmatics. He also serves on the Consultation Board of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA) as well as on the editorial boards of a number of journals from the fields of pragmatics and humor studies (e.g. Text and Talk and Humor).In this millennium only, he has published more than 50 articles in peerreviewed journals and edited volumes reflecting his manifold interests in language in use, its forms and functions, including topics as diverse as conjunctions, interjections, pragmatic markers, tellability, swearing, remembering, listener practices, similes, scripted performances, laughter, conflict, and the construction of identities in talk. Uniting his two passions, language and cooking, he has worked on recipes as early as 1983. His recent addition to the field of culinary linguistics is on "Conversational recipe telling" (2011).The articles in this volume were written and assembled as a token of gratitude and affection for our teacher, mentor and colleague.1. We would like to thank the student helpers of English linguistics, above all Isabel Schul and Daniel Recktenwald, for their help, and also our colleagues at the English department of Saarland University and everybody else for not "spilling the beans." Aperitivo Overview of the volume Maximiliane FrobeniusSaarland UniversityThe present volume contains a collection of original research articles from multiple disciplines, revolving around the common theme of language and food and the manifestation of the two within their cultural framework. This section gives a brief overview of the general structure of the volume and of the individual contributions.Similar to the intricate task of composing a four course meal for invited guests, the assembling of an edited volume demands a sense of "what goes together. " The metaphor of the menu serves as the vehicle for the order of contributions: we start with an introduction to the whole field of research (Antipasti), move on to contributions in the form of original research ar...
