gastronomy books in the Seagram Library.
Baldassar Pisanelli practised medicine in Bologna and became famous as
result of the publication of this book. In it he describes the natural
history, the usages, the qualities of fruits, liqueurs, meats, game,
fish, milk, cheese, etc., and under what conditions the food and
drinks should be used.
On each page two foods are described, with sub-headings in italics in
the margin, and the natural history of these on the opposite page. >>
Shown here are descriptions of lvpoli and carrots."
