Cookbooks are currently a very popular literary genre in the field of gastronomy, but this was not always the case. Until the end of the 19th century, cookbooks were intended only for wealthy middle-class female readers. The study tries to show that the situation changed at the beginning of the 20th century, and cookbooks that were unprecedented before 1900 appeared. Their authors began to focus on particular groups of diners, types of ingredients, and different ways of eating. They also aimed at lower social classes, such as the working class and the countryside. The first cookbooks inspired by foreign gastronomy or the new dietary phenomenon – vegetarianism – were also produced. The development was also influenced by several historical events, such as World War I, when several war cookbooks were written. The female authors of cookbooks are an important aspect in the research on gastronomy. They are no longer just experienced housewives who share their recipes and advice, but include women dealing with education, and health and food science. Some of the authors‘ names are still well-known today.

Lubuskie Voivodship is a varied and valuable area in terms of sacred architecture and church organs. The development of sacred building industry, industrialization of organ-building, and the use of the steam engine in the 19th century enabled organ manufacturers to expand their production in that area. That process reached its peak at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and caused major changes in organ instruments as such, that have been preserved in differing degrees to this day. The first half of the 19th century was the time of significant development in organ-building in terms of technology and sound aesthetics. It affected such aspects as specification, pipe scaling, voicing, system of action, and windchest construction. In the first two decades, apart from taking advantage of the previously worked out solutions, organ companies focused on the “moderniz-ation” of their instruments. It was, however, still carried out basing on tubular-pneumatic action and cone valve chests. The following decade brought some new ideas in the field of organ spe-cifications. Attempts to make electrical action more common were followed by turning back to the tracker action and slider chests. The Organ Revival Movement (Orgelbewegung) helped to break the monopoly of large organ companies focused on series production. However, these new trends in organ-building could not spread immediately due to the upcoming economic crises and the two world wars. The instruments preserved in the Lubuskie region document the most important transition in German organ-building in the first half of the 20th century and provide interesting research mate-rial. The instruments discussed in this article, selected from different locations (Drezdenko, Strzelce Krajeńskie, Gorzów Wlkp., Międzyrzecz, Iłowa, Słonów), present a clear development line over the years. Their choice was dictated by the accessibility of source materials, complemented by the author’s own research.
