Denicolò, Barbara, "The Cookery Books in the Herzog August Library Wolfenbüttel", dins: Kernan, Sarah Peters - Müllneritsch, Helga (eds.), Culinary Texts in Context, 1500–1800: Manuscript Recipe Books in Early Modern Europe, Amsterdam, Amsterdam University Press, 2024, pp. 67-96.

Resum: The chapter focuses on the cookbooks and recipe collections of the HAB and concentrates on the copies acquired during August's lifetime (1579-1666) and aims to draw attention to the contents and materiality of a remarkable collection of handwritten and printed cookbooks from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. Further sections on Duke August's person, on the origins of the various parts and holdings of his library and on his correspondence with his book agents provide an insight into August's relationship with books, the possible reasons for his collecting and the significance of historical knowledge literature for an early Baroque prince.
