SC - Grewe's Almohade Cookbook edition

[Philip & Susan Troy]

Hullo, all!

I thought people might be interested, if not happy about it.

Rudolf Grewe's translated edition of a Hispano-Arabian 12th-century
cookery text, tentatively entitled "The Almohade Cookbook", and referred
to as forthcoming in a Grewe article in Lambert's "Du manuscrit a la
table", appears never to have been published. At least not by E.J.
Brill, of Leiden, as Grewe had suggested.

I finally got an e-mail from a human being at Brill & Co., saying that
while they'd been interested in publishing it, they never did. The lady
gave no reason, but I suspect Grewe's final illness and passing intervened.

The manuscript in Arabic is still presumably out there, though.
