The Art of Cookery, by William King, published in 1708, offers a fascinating glimpse into the culinary and literary tastes of the early 18th century. Subtitled "In Imitation of Horace's Art of Poetry," this work cleverly uses the framework of Horace's poetic treatise to satirize contemporary society and manners through the lens of food and dining. King's poem is accompanied by letters to Dr. Lister and others, prompted by Lister's publication of Apicius Coelius's works on soups and sauces. More than just a collection of recipes, "The Art of Cookery" is a witty commentary on the social rituals surrounding food, reflecting the era's preoccupation with classical learning and its application to everyday life. King's skillful imitation of Horace, combined with his sharp observations on culinary trends, makes this a valuable and entertaining read for anyone interested in the history of food writing and the literature of the Enlightenment.
