Jean-Louis Flandrin
Jean-Louis Flandrin (July 4, 1931 – August 8, 2001) was a French
historian. His fields of study were family, sexuality, and, in particular, food. He introduced new analytical methods and examined a range of sources including church
penitentials, cookbooks, and even traditional
proverbs over a wide historical time-frame, from the
High Middle Ages to the 20th century. At the time of his death, Flandrin was
Professor Emeritus at the
University of Paris VIII and Head of Research at the
École des hautes études en sciences sociales.
