  • Formal Hall or Formal Meal is the traditional meal held at some of the older universities in the United Kingdom at which students dress in formal attire and often gowns to dine. These are held commonly in the colleges of Oxford, Cambridge, Durham and St Andrews, as well as at the halls of Nottingham, University of Manchester and Bristol. The nature of Formals varies widely between the colleges and halls that hold them. In some colleges, Formals may be held every night, and are simply a second sitting of hall at which gowns are worn and grace is read. In other colleges, Formals may be special events to which guests from outside the college are frequently invited, often with themes and associated entz or "bops". In between these two extremes fall the great majority of colleges.
  • Unter den Tischsitten versteht man die Umgangsformen bei Tisch, genauer beim Einnehmen von Speisen und Getränken in Gesellschaft. Sie werden in der Ernährungssoziologie untersucht. Nach Norbert Elias entwickelten sich die europäischen Tischsitten im Prozess der Zivilisation, in dem zunehmend Fremdzwänge zu Selbstzwängen wurden. Pierre Bourdieu sieht in den Tischsitten inkorporiertes kulturelles Kapital, mit dem privilegierte Klassen sich mittels feiner Unterschiede von anderen distinguieren.
