| Sumario: | An essay is presented on the communities formed by women engaging in the collective authorship of cookbooks. Particular focus is given to the self-representation, racial and class makeup, regionality, and domestic identity of these communities. Details related to cookbooks produced by church-affiliated women's groups are presented. According to the author, these communities excluded some kinds of women while attempting to negotiate competing discourses of domesticity and professionalization. |
