Great video! Thanks for introducing me to those artists! Mrs Crocombe is another legend in historical cooking. If anyone is interested in cooking old Italian recipes I’d like to suggest 1891 Pellegrino Artusi “Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Eating Well”, which is considered the father of modern homemade Italian cuisine.

[@rachelboersma-plug9482]

I'd also suggest cookery writers like Elizabeth David or Jane Grigson, who often researched and re-presented historical recipes, or whose books contain a lot of historical background for ingredients or methods. Given that they wrote in the 50s-70s, their work now has historical interest in its own right too.

[@tallgrasslanestitches6635]

It occurs to me that, in a roundabout way, visual essays (such as this one) might be considered a modern version of the magazine articles and pamphlets of a century or more ago...another type of historybounding?

[@Lavender_Louis]

Yes! I had the same thought a while ago! I used to (and still do) love magazines but nowadays it's hard to find magazines that cover topics that interest me. Watching KZbin has given me immense enjoyment over the past 10 years and I couldn't help but notice the similarities is has to magazines!

[@mariebray9831]

Now I know that planting "heritage or heirloom" plants and trees is historybounding. My whole life has been waiting for the label. I'm doing my best to spread all the crafts I learned from older family members to youngsters, who show an interest.

[@lorisewsstuff1607]

At our house we have a functional modern spinning wheel. It's not unusual for people to find my wife spinning yarn. Even when she is wearing modern clothes people remark about how old-timey it is. I believe the fact that this is technology of a time long passed overrides the modern appearance. BTW, The Name of the Rose is an awesome book and much better than the movie.

[@azteclady]

(still watching but...would Bardcore not also be part of history bounding music?) Thank you for always giving us springboards for further exploring, as well as the impetus for thinking more analytically about what we like, and consume generally.

Historical cooking is hilariously the algorithmic start of the rabbit hole that led me to subscribing to your channel. Years ago I started watching Townsend's 18th c. channel which led to things and things and costube Christmas exchange which led to costube and history bounding which led to here and even further beyond. The journey has been and will no doubt continue to be epic. Thanks for all the work you do and for opening another rabbit hole or four.

I truly adore how you've included Tasting History with Max Miller! He's indeed a wonderful person and his videos are entertainingly informative! (Just gonna fangirl real quick because it's always a treat when KZbinrs mention other KZbinrs I follow/recognize. X))

[@cheaphussey5028]

Yay! I'm so happy you mentioned cookbooks, as a former chef, I collect them and feel such a connection with the former owners, especially when I find notations, clipping and recipe cards. Womens history has greatly been ignored and ordinary womens lives to an even greater extent. When I find 3x5 cards with notes like "Biddy's secret recipe" or "add a little more sugar" I feel a real connection to these forgotten women. Thanx for the great video.

Another section of your life to introduce historybounding can be hobbies! Try your hand at old timey activities, for example check out the KZbin channel 'Engineering Knits' to see her use old Victorian patterns to knit, these aren't just clothing BTW, there's other knitting projects too, or you could do crochet which was also popular! By the victorian times you see a many magazines and books that share patterns and instructions for crafts. Historybounding hobby crafts can also help you history bound in your decor and clothes so it's a very effective historybounding method, of course other hobbies can be cooking, paying music, make your own pastiche médias, etc

that cyrano clip reminded me of a much beloved steve martin film, "Roxanne." oddly true to the source material, charming, and for me now a weird historybounding to the world of adults when i was a child.

In German feeling and emotions are linked words too! "fühlen" is feeling something by touching (its soft or hard or hase a nice texture etc) but its the same word if you feel pain or sadness or happieness etc. Emotions are "Gefühle" in german, so that "fühlen" is part of that word too :D

[@ragnkja]

I think it may be true for all Germanic languages.

Can hardly wait to loose myself down an interweb rabbit hole concerning the artists! & I guess my parents were history bounding long before I came along & I've been living that way all my life! Who'da thunk it teehee

[@loveoffthedamned]

I know it`s an obvious recommendation but for everyone who is into the 60s-early 70s, I cannot recommend Anna Biller`s films enough. As an obnoxious film buff, I am very skeptical about movies that are trying to be vintage-looking because it`s usually just a gimmick (not that`s there is anything wrong with that necessarily either). But her work is not just chasing a certain aesthetic it`s so much more. It`s a bit like Baz Lurhman`s storytelling through hyper stylization but also female gaze and satirizing the way films of the time portrayed women, just love it, absolutely love it, Anna Biller is a treasure. Have you read Eco`s Baudolino? It`s amazing

[@LizCapism]

60s and 70s films aren't something I'm particularly focused on, so I'd never heard of her! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@LixiaWinter]

Ana Biller is a treasure!

[@glitterstarlet]

If you like 60s music, I highly recommend the band Electric Looking Glass, they have an amazing baroque pop sound.

[@CopenhagenDreaming]

I historybound whenever I visit my boyfriend... He's in the process of selling off an 1890s etagère because it's just... Well, it doesn't fit the rest of his furniture! Too new... We lounge about on an 1840s sofa when we're watching Netflix or KZbin, and basically most of his sitting and dining room furniture is mahogany from the 1840s - "late empire style", as it's referred to in Denmark. (Okay, so the two French 1790s chairs by the sitting room window are a bit out of place - but they're so pretty that you easily forgive that incongruence.) When we first started dating he was nervous about having me over. Some people, apparently, find his choice of furniture weird... I love it! (And today he went to work with a starched, detachable collar, an 1890s watch chain in his waistcoat, and a similarly aged tie pin. He works in a church, though, so for Sundays it makes sense for him to dress quite formally - after all, priests here in Denmark wear what would have been contemporary-wear in the 1600s, including piped collars, so an 1890s sexton doesn't seem too out of place!)

[@LizCapism]

interesting!

[@lizzaturnbull]

I love this and was so excited as I recognised many of the books/films etc - even the sneaky little Breakfast at Tiffany’s clip! Another Book series I have enjoyed is by Pat Macintosh and is set in 15th century Glasgow amongst the middle/merchant class. Thanks xx

[@LizCapism]

[@sharpduds]

I have an unfair advantage in that my family has a massive collection of antiques and heirlooms I can pick and choose from - especially with furniture, which I've had to force myself to stop because my car isn't big enough for an Empire secretary desk. However, it is big enough for a Queen Anne lowboy. Which is now in my workroom, overflowing with patterns, threads, and shoes. My windup Brunswick victrola is on a little oak table, and I have to hang my poster for Blythe Spirit. Some would say my desired aesthetic is Dark Academia, but I would call it more Agatha Christie Gothick or Period Fantasy Magnum P.I. You know the episodes I'm talking about

I wonder if we could also pull elements of language from the past as well? They seemed to have a different sentence structures and vocabulary words than we do. Is there a way to learn that beyond simply reading? I had to go back to add the books to my TBR. The Suitable Boy audiobook seems like it will be really good, if the sample is accurate.

[@LizCapism]

It makes sense that the scope of historybounding will be larger than the parental disneybounding: after all, disneybounding is limited to a specific short time and the items with you at that time (wholly and solely when you are ‘bound for Disney Land’). As you might be “history bound” by choice in the rest of your larger life, there’s far more times and things that can be affected by that aesthetic... 🎟

[@lynn858]

1) “Allow to set while milking the cows” Someone once informed me that hand milking a cow took them 7 minutes, but that still leaves the question as to whether this farm wife had 2 or 20+ cows. Nor does she describe what change will have taken place if you allow it to set an appropriate amount of time, or what it might be like if it sets too little or far too long. 2) “Add one packet” I do not know what year or even decade the recipe was from, and the package sizes aren’t the same - apparently, as it now comes in 2 sizes and the reasonable guess did not remotely work. At least in this case I know the recipe was written and used in the same country as I am now, or that would add another layer of confusion. I’m attempting to ensure my recipes don’t suffer the same fate, but it can be difficult to imagine what you may need to specify. And what may make them impossible is simply ADHD brain logic, that I felt was clarifying or simplifying matters.

I just indulged in a little history in real-life bounding. Headed over to the ByWard Market and buying herbs and vegetables for our 7th story treehouse apartment balcony veg patch. The Market is the beating heart of what is historic Ottawa - the place you go for your fruit, veg, dry goods and, um, wet goods (in the form of beer-like substances). The gardening comes from Mum's side of the family. My Maternal Grandfather actually had a side-gig in Thunderbay growing flowers for gravestones in the local cemetery. There's something about recreating the daily patterns of the parents and grand's that slows down time. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown

[@jennieeveleighlamond]

In regards to historical music - historical instruments that are no longer commonly played and historical pitch performances can be very different and interesting to the modern ear. It can be a little harder to find recordings, or actual instruments for people who are interested in learning to play, but it is very rewarding to explore new (old) sounds.

[@miri2810]

also, untempered (is that the right term?) tuning! We are so used to hearing everything in standard tempered tuning of modern pianos. Although you probably need to have a bit of experience with music to notice the difference...

Glen and Friends cooking is another great KZbin channel for historical cooking. He tests out recipes from historical and vintage cookbooks, including cocktails.

[@katherinemorelle7115]

In regards to Historybounding cooking, there are also some interesting videos of modern chefs recreating historical meals- like Anne Reardon at How to Cook That (she’s awesome, she also busts myths from those awful hack cooking channels, and has a series on how to rescue cake fails). She’s got a series of videos remaking old recipes. There’s also a series from the early 2000s that’s available on KZbin, The Supersizers Go/Eat... where food critic Giles Coren and journalist Sue Perkins travel back in time to a specific era for a week to “live” and eat what the people of the time would have eaten. Forewarning, while they do try to dress up, the historical dress isn’t always terribly accurate, so if that’s something that’s going to bother you, maybe the show isn’t for you. But it is somewhat educational and most importantly- hilarious. They’ve done mid Victorian, Elizabethan, Restoration, Medieval, French Revolution, Ancient Roman and also some of the 20th century. I find those sorts of things to be really accessible for those of us who can’t go out to find old cookbooks, and who also might not be able to cook ourselves, for whatever reason.

[@sandral9401]

Great video, as always. It made me think about my own habits and how some could be interpreted as history binding. That includes writing almost exclusively with fountain pens. It last has the advantage of being more sustainable, when using bottled ink.

Hi Liz, I never thought of my home decor as history bounding, it's just what I've liked and collected over the years, but you are right it's a little bit Victorian in parts and the garden is very much cottage style.definitely something to think about.💖

[@etainne2001]

a few years back (25+), bought a house that was new with the standard one single tree in the yard. After several months of work and planning, had a front and back garden centered on the old theme of usefulness. 12 fruit trees, rose hedges, juniper hedges to hide the rose canes, and laurel Bay) hedged the long side yard. Interspersed was all manner of carrots and flowering plants to tomato and chili and squash and herbs, It ended up being quite the thing at harvest times and really wasn't much work to keep going. not quite a victory garden, not quite a celtic theme, but full of beauty and healthy usefulness year round. I miss it now.

I'm glad you mentioned history bounding in interior design! I mean, it's mostly subconscious, but my living room ended up being a mix of vintage and modern in a way where it is reminiscent of victorian homes, but also the 60s/70s, but also modern day and I love it to bits.

First I thought that this is something I only do by clothing, but nah. History has been part of many areas of my life for a long time. Some examples: Since I was 13, I have participated in a amatheur theathre group that sets up historical plays, often written by local people about thing that have happened in my area. Besides doing the play, we do it on a site with historical buildings and often go visit the places that our play actually is about. Sometimes our props on stage, are actual things from 100 years ago. I have inherited a lot from my grandmothers, from cookbooks and furniture to clothes and home made carpets. My favourite ginger bread recepie is from an old cookbook where it says to "wash the butter" before using it (which is as I understand, to get of the extra salt that was put on it back in the day, to perserve it). I also like to take inspiration from historical mindsets concerning things that could help me be more sustainable and use what I have. (Most historical mindsets are rubbish, and those I don't like.) Like the mindset of always mend and reuse until it's beyond repair. How things were made to last, back then. And being made out of natural materials. How to layer skirts in winter. They had figured out a lot of good things back then too, so I like to use all the practical tips that serve in my life.

[@randomchick901]

One of my favorite movies is The Love Witch. I believe it’s technically set when it was filmed (mid 2010’s) but it always transports me right back to the 60s with its style and even the conversations around gender that it’s having (in a very good way)

Both historybounding with clothes and furniture face the same issue. To find what the typical person wore or had in their homes requires digging. I own a 1917 bungalow in a suburb next to a major city on the East Coast. Workers who moved to this town in 1917 rode the streetcar to their downtown jobs. When I look for early 20th Century US furniture, I find Stickley, Greene, and Greene from the craftsman period and mission furniture from the US West Coast (real or knock-offs). Did the first owners of my house have such furniture? From the knowledge that I gain from costume historybounding, I have learned to go to primary sources. Primary sources for workers from this town are magazines and catalogs.

All the Hitchcock films. Calling All The Presidents Men history bounding when it’s lived experience for some of us is, um, not good marketing. It’s not that long ago. Watergate was so huge even school kids were immersed in it.

[@LizCapism]

All the President’s Men, The Beatles’ film, and 12 Angry Men were used in this video as examples of film that were set in their own time. They are therefore very interesting insights and artefacts of that time period, which is what I mean to communicate. Some people might remember that time, but for a young person who was born in 2001, watching All The Presidents Men is an opportunity to experience a moment in time that is really important, but probably comes across quite dry in a history textbook. That film does a great deal to express what people were feeling, and how messed up and confusing that moment in the world was - because we all have hindsight now and it’s hard to imagine how it must have felt at the time if you didn’t live it.

[@sarahrosen4985]

Interesting. I’ve subscribed. As a young mother dealing with a lot of disposable diapers I happened to think of my grandmother as a young mother during WW2. Because of where my grandfather was stationed, she moved from Ohio to Oklahoma as a young bride. Then she took the several day train trip back alone with her infant son (my father). But, wait, she didn’t have disposable diapers. What did she do? How did she have enough diapers? How did she wash and dry them? She had absolutely no recollection. So many mundane issues are not recorded and forgotten to history REALLY quickly. :-(

Specifically given that this was toward the end of WWII, with so much rationing going on and changes in women's skirt volume to reduce the amount of fabric used, I have to question the luxury of having any kind of cloth that can be so casually thrown away. Maybe trains had laundry and diaper services as a matter of course? If I threw away the amount of cotton fabric equivalent to the amount of disposable diaper material I throw away each day now with my little one, I would be broke within the first month!

Wonderful video! I feel like the biggest thing I do historyboundingwise in my everyday life is to use historical items or practices. Like using a victorian awl instead of a modern one, or going on road trips with my vintage train case instead of a modern backpack. Other movies I would recommend for history-does-earlier-history are 3 and 4 Musketeers (1970s does 17th century rather well) Young Frankenstein (they intentionally imitated the color and frame rates of early film!) (Also, the 90s Pride and Prejudice, but I think everyone in this community knows that one) Oh!
