''Taken together, and any quibbles on broadness vs specificity aside, this collection is a timely and valuable reminder of the physical and intellectual stakes of a burgeoning global food market... it sets itself apart from the rich banquet of existing culinary scholarship in its union of the bodily and the intellectual."
- Chloe Fairbanks, Food and History , 22.1, 2024
"In the Kitchen, 1550–1800: Reading English Cooking at Home and Abroad is indeed brimming with surprising and original research based on the close reading of an impressive variety of sources, from recipes to literature to political tracts, privileging period voices and perspectives."

Reading English Cooking at Home and Abroad
De onderstaande tekst is niet beschikbaar in het Nederlands en wordt in het Engels weergegeven.
In the Kitchen insists that the preparation of food, whether imaginative, physical, or spatial, is central to a deeper understanding of early modern food cultures and practices. Devoted to the arts of cooking and medicine, early modern kitchens concentrated on producing, processing, and preserving materials necessary for nourishment and survival; yet they also fed social and economic networks and nurtured a sense of physical, spiritual, and political connection to surrounding lands and their cultures. The essays in this volume illuminate this expansive view of cooking and aspire to show how the kitchen's inner workings prove tightly, though often invisibly, interwoven with local, national, and, increasingly, global surroundings. Engaging with literary and historical methodologies, including close reading, recipe analysis, and perspectives on gender, class, race, and colonialism, we begin to develop a shared theoretical and practical language for the art of cooking that combines the physical with the intellectual, the local with the global, and the domestic with the political.
