Hjalmar Fors @hjalmarfors.bsky.social discussed the shift in focus from sensory experience and sensory-derived, embodied knowledge, towards an approach that prioritised the kinds of knowledge derived from analytical chemistry. Embodied knowledge is crucial for Preservare as well. #14ichc

Beyond the roundtable, several other presenters addressed topics relevant for food preservation, cooking, or food and medicine. Thijs Hagendijk addresses fire management as an eminently chemical craft, but also a "scientia", linking theory with practice.

Now it's PRESERVARE's turn! I present our project, our team members and their current work, and describe how we use both computational and experimental methods to explore early modern food preservation technologies. #14ichc

Peter Oakley relates about the challenges and satisfactions of reconstructing early modern furnaces. Like food preservation, fire and its management presupposed much embodied knowledge that is now lost. #14ichc

Guillermo Restrepo has a background in mathematics and applies computational methods to detect large-scale patterns in scientific discoveries. His quantitative approach tests accepted historical narratives in the social history of science. #14ichc

Petr Pavlas (PI), Jo Hedesan, and Czech colleagues present the TOME project: tome.flu.cas.cz/tome-project... and the tool EMLAP for searching through a curated Latin alchemical corpus. This can be helpful for exploring intersections of concepts in alchemy and food handling and preservation.
