This paper will present my personal translation into Portuguese of the Italian book by Pellegrino Artusi entitled The Science of Cooking and the Art of eating Well, published in Brazil, November 2009. This book is important in Brazil because it unifies old and new generations of Italian migrants who migrated there without speaking a single word of Portuguese but who were proud of their own origin, introducing with a great success also food traditions and new and unknown products. Now the third generation, that doesn’t speak a single word of the Italian, aims to recognize the origin of their own families, and this book helped a lot in a linguistic, cultural and historic way because it is, as well, a social phenomenon that travels across languages, cultures, time and space.

Abstract
This paper will present my personal translation into Portuguese of the Italian book by Pellegrino Artusi entitled The Science of Cooking and the Art of eating Well, published in Brazil, November 2009. This book is important in Brazil because it unifies old and new generations of Italian migrants who migrated there without speaking a single word of Portuguese but who were proud of their own origin, introducing with a great success also food traditions and new and unknown products. Now the third generation, that doesn’t speak a single word of the Italian, aims to recognize the origin of their own families, and this book helped a lot in a linguistic, cultural and historic way because it is, as well, a social phenomenon that travels across languages, cultures, time and space.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
