Mau Lindow Tarbensen is a PhD fellow at Aarhus University, focusing on the study of 19th-century Danish cookbooks authored by women. His research explores the intersections of ecological narratives with household economics, plant life, and sustainable food practices. Tarbensen aims to uncover how these cookbooks provide a lens on 'everyday ecology,' highlighting the impact of nature on domestic life in accordance with seasonal rhythms. He analyzes the works of notable authors such as Anne Marie Mangor and Sørine Thaarup to reveal how their narratives encourage ecological practices. Furthermore, his project seeks to enrich Danish literary and scientific history, positioning these domestic texts as equally valuable as the male-dominated scientific discourse of the time. Through his research, Tarbensen aspires to inspire changes in contemporary Danish food culture in response to climate crisis, advocating for sustainable production and consumption.
