Abstract

Avant-garde Cookbook? The Polish Translation of The Alice B. Toklas Cookbook The article focuses on the Polish translation of The Alice B. Toklas Cookbook. The author provides examples which prove that Toklas’s book may be read as a functional text as well as an artistic cookbook. Nevertheless, the Polish translation narrow this possibility to functional text or a narration on cooking while the comments on its cultural, autobiographical and social aspects seem to be lost in translation.
