This is a curious book published a few years ago, but for some reason, it skipped our radar:
ブロンテ姉妹の食生活:生涯、作品、社会をもとに
(The Brontë Sisters' Diet - Based on Their Lives, Works, and Society)
by 宇田和子 著 (Kazuko Uda)
Published by 開文社出版 (Kaiwenshe)
ISBN: 978-4-87571-883-3
September 2020

A unique book that merges Bro
ntë studies and food culture research. In elucidating the Brontë sisters' diet, it utilizes the lifetimes of the 3 sisters and related figures, their 3 major works, their social background, and research from many other fields. Written in an easy-to-read style and format, incorporating numerous illustrations, and looking from a wide perspective, it is a volume that one can enjoy reading about the dietary lifestyles of the Brontë sisters. The practical indications of the author, who is also involved in confectionery, baking, and recipe development, as well as the close readings of works focusing on cooking, are giving rise to Brontë research heretofore unseen.
