The Bites that Matter: Digital Archives, Race, and the 19th-Century Cookbook Page (Public Lecture or Presentation)
Title: The Bites that Matter: Digital Archives, Race, and the 19th-Century Cookbook Page
Abstract: The public lecture discusses the layered materiality of the 19th-century cookbook page and its ability to both highlight and mask the politics of labor and race in the kitchen. Blankenship will explore the cookbook as both a personal archive and a space to negotiate authority between author and servant, and demonstrate the effectiveness of a layered digital approach to working with the 19th-century cookbook as well as the possibilities for deepening our understanding of social stratifications in the kitchen.
