Autorenporträt
Mrs. Cornelius, known less formally as Mary Hooker Cornelius, was an influential author particularly recognized for her contributions to domestic literature during the 19th century. Her seminal work, 'The Young Housekeeper's Friend' (1846), is a compendium of culinary knowledge, household management, and general domestic guidance aimed to aid those embarking on the endeavor of keeping a house. This text reflects the cultural milieu of the time, emphasizing the role and responsibilities of women within the domestic sphere. Mrs. Cornelius's book provides not only recipes but also wisdom on how to manage a household economically and efficiently, a subject that was critical in an era when women were primarily homemakers and caretakers. Her writing style combines practicality with a didactic tone, seeking to educate and empower young housekeepers in an accessible manner. The literary merit of her work is found in its detailed portrayal of domestic life in the 19th century and its influence on the genre of domestic manuals, which saw a surge during that era as a reflection of societal norms and expectations. While less is known about her personal life, Mrs. Cornelius's book remains a significant artifact of domestic literature, continuing to be of interest to scholars studying the historical aspects of home economics and the role of women in society.
