Recenzii
'In Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy, Deborah Krohn brings much needed attention to the genre of culinary illustration. For far too long, even scholars who are fully focused on food's roles in culture have failed to address the work that images perform in cookbooks. By bringing close attention to the first illustrated European cookbook, Krohn helps to lay the groundwork for future work on this topic.'
- Journal of Design History
'Deborah Krohn tackles what has to be considered by far the most important cookbook of the Renaissance: Bartolomeo Scappi's Opera. Known not only for its massive text but also for its much reproduced illustrations, it has remained in many ways a somewhat mysterious unicum in the realm of high end cookery. Now, thanks to an innovative approach mixing book history, food history and the history of illustration in the sixteenth century, Scappi's cookbook finally finds its place in the context of sixteenth century publishing, a dynamic market in which both authors and publishers experimented with innovative formulas. A welcome contribution in more than one field.'

Descriere
Deborah L. Krohn presents here the first full-length study of Bartolomeo Scappi's Opera (1570), the first illustrated cookbook. She treats the illustrations as visual evidence for a lost material reality; and through the illustrations, connects Scappi's Opera with other types of late Renaissance illustrated books. What emerges from both of these approaches is a new way of thinking about the place of cookbooks in the history of knowledge.
