Aportes para el estudio de la nutrición humana en el mundo Romano (siglos II a.n.e.- III n.e.)
Resumen
En la presente comunicación analizaremos las formas en que se ha abordado la nutrición en la historiografía romana de las últimas décadas. Observaremos que los trabajos que la refieren, aunque reflejan las formas hegemónicas de entender la nutrición humana desde el campo de las ciencias médicas, no parten de una definición concreta. Sostendremos que estas ideas no resultan operativas para analizar a las sociedades antiguas y propondremos, como alternativa, la utilidad de la definición tridimensional de nutrición ofrecida en la Declaración de Giessen de 2005. Argumentaremos que esta definición ofrece un marco teórico integrativo y multidimensional particularmente relevante para los estudios históricos sobre alimentación y nutrición. Como consecuencia ofreceremos algunas ideas respecto a cómo puede adecuarse dicho marco teórico para el análisis de la nutrición en el mundo romano entre los siglos II a.n.e. y III n.e.
