SUMMARY:Bottoms Up! A History of Wine\, Its Rituals and Its Vessels
DESCRIPTION:This light-hearted talk examines the history of wine\, an elixir that has sustained much of humanity for almost 10\,000 years. Essentially little more than fermented grape juice\, this extraordinary and contradictory liquid has caused wars and riots\, has helped broker peace and more commonly\, served as an aphrodisiac. It has been personified in the form of Gods and been the principal catalyst in civilised entertaining and dining rituals. Wine is based on ethanol\, a potent alcoholic poison and depressant. Yet\, when consumed in moderation\, its effects are liberating\, euphoric and positively beneficial to our physical health. \nLecturer: Andy McConnell \nAndy-McConnell\, theartssociety.org \nHas dealt in antiques since adolescence\, but served an apprenticeship in journalism. After working in music\, film and television\, he returned to writing in 2004 as the author of the acclaimed tome The Decanter\, An Illustrated History of Glass From 1650. He followed this in 2006 with Miller’s‘ 20th Century Glass. He has written for journals as diverse as The Times and Glass Circle News and ran Britain’s largest antique and vintage glass gallery in Rye\, Sussex. He is best known as the glass specialist on BBC’s evergreen Antiques Roadshow.
