I was the one who first got Elise et. al. to translate Miranda's Spanish 
translation into English and then later got Perry to go back and redo it 
from the Arabic with the assistance of their retranslation. All of the 
work was done by other people. All I did was get them to do it and then 
make the result available to people as part of the xeroxed collection of 
period cookbooks I produced.

That was one part of a long term project to get people to translate 
cookbooks. It included Janet Hinson's translation of the cooking section 
of /Le Menagier/, my wife's translation of /Du Fait de Cuisine/ and, 
most recently, our daughter's translation of a 15th century Italian 
cookbook. All now on my web page.
