If you unzip your .epub (easier on a computer), you can inspect the (original) subjects/tags in a file, usually in a file called content.opf. Sounds inconvenient? Fortunately, there is a much easier way.
  • Go to Book Info view associated with an EPUB book.
  • Tap Edit, then Restore All From Book.
  • You should the see the subjects/tags as originally embedded in the book. (They may or may not match what you see in calibre, depending on what you've done there.)
  • Now tap Cancel, if you don't really want to restore.
That's one of the main things that kept me from switching to MapleRead as a replacement for Marvin. Too bad this can't be set as the default. I don't really want to have to do this manually to every book I download. Other readers handle embedded metadata without any issues.
