Abstract
Slavonia, in gastronomic terms, highlights the differences that have occurred within historical events and relies on remains of different cultures, traditions and customs. Other than food as a basic human need, its preparation and consumption, the diet can also be analysed through the method of cultivation of certain plants and animals. Thus, the teacher and ethnographer Luka Lukić, incorporated diet into the various sections such as cultivation of crops and domestic animals, fishing, process of storage and preparation of food, but also those that are associated with women. With all the housework and chores relating to the private sphere of the house, which involved the care for the diet of all household members, the care for the garden and domestic animals, was also considered to be the responsibility of women at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. It was thought that changing such entrenched gender divisions would harm the economy and families just as much as the growing influence of immigrant culture.
Lukić was a participant of the village type of life, such as working on the land, weddings, festivities, where he got the complete insight into the way of life, he could then communicate on to his manuscripts guided by the Antun Radić’s work Osnova za sabiranje i proučavanje narodnog života (The groundwork of collecting and studying the folk life). We can conclude from his manuscripts that he thought of the diet as important part of human life, not just the human need for survival.
