  “FOR THE JEDI IT IS TIME TO EAT AS WELL”. EATING SCENES IN STAR WARS SAGA
• Twórca:
  BARBARZAK, Dawid
• Opis:
  Feast scenes from the main Star Wars episodes play an important role the creation of theplot and characters. In the paper I divide them into three types. In the first part I discuss the scenes in which a feast or a meal is a pretext for the dialogues revealing the characters’ past (the conversation between Luke and his uncle) or predict their future (little Anakin and Qui-Gon during the dinner; Anakin and Padmé’s conversation predicting their fall). In the second part I present eating scenes through the authors create or underline the characteristic features of the protagonists (comism of Jar Jar Binks and Chewbacca; Jabba’s gluttony; dehumanization of the black characters by the fact that they lack any contact with food) or build their social status (Rey’s scavenger meal; feasts at tha palaces of Jabba and Amidala; Jedi master’s ascetic meal on Dagobah; clones’ canteen). To analyse the scenes I use theories developed by food anthropologists (Mary Douglas, Claude Levi-Strauss, and Katarzyna Łeńska-Bąk) and make references to classical mythology and the Bible. In the last part I raise questions about consumer’s the identity of the character who eats juxtaposing devouring and eating scenes (why are Eworks considered humanoids whereas Wampa and Rancor are considered monsters since they all eat human flesh?).  ;
