With a Preface and Memoir of Both Authors by Currer Bell, Author of Jane Eyre. 'New Edition' (third English edition). 8vo., original orange glazed cloth printed in black. London, Smith, Elder and Co. The third edition overall of one of the great masterpieces of English literature, a rare and fragile publication, its inexpensive manufacture, a necessary evil in bringing the text to a wider audience was not conducive to this particular edition's longevity. The Biographical Notice of Ellis and Acton Bell and the Preface to Wuthering Heights, both by Currer Bell (Charlotte Brontė's pseudonym) were first included in the second edition of 1850. Contemporary bookseller's blindstamp to front free endpaper, neat pencilled ownership inscription in an early hand to head of title page, otherwise generally internally clean; neat repair to joints, spine slightly faded, some light scuffing to covers, corners bumped, still a good copy overall.

First Edition
Condition: Very Good. First Edition. First American Edition, first printing. Bound in publisher's original brown cloth decorated in blind with spine decorated in gilt. Very Good with cloth lightly soiled and worn at corners and spine ends. Inexpert bookplate removal to front paste down. Small stain to top corner of several early leaves and rear paste down. Pages are foxed, browned and with occasional creasing throughout. A lovely copy, rare in the original publisher's cloth. The second and final novel by the youngest of the Bronte sisters, published under the pseudonym Acton Bell. Anne died at the age of 29, a year after its publication. It was a commercial success compared to her first novel, Agnes Grey, that debuted in "the year of revolutions," 1848. Recent critics have appreciated the novel's autobiographical realism and overtly-political feminism-- specifically its defense of single motherhood and dramatization of a woman trapped in an abusive marriage with no legal way to secure a divorce. It is widely understood to be a critique of the idealized Victorian woman in her sisters' much more popular Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. The Prime Minister's Copy. The first published work in print by the Bronte sisters. Self published at a cost of £35 18s 3d under masculine pseudonyms to avoid contemporary prejudices against female authors. All three retained the first letter of their first names; Charlotte became Currer, Emily became Ellis, Anne became Acton and Bronte became Bell. This is the first edition second issue; 1000 copies were initially printed by Aylott & Jones in 1846 but only two copies were sold in the first year. A further 37 copies were given away by the sisters as either review copies or gifts to authors whom they admired. It is known that Wordsworth, Tennyson, Coleridge and De Quincey each received a copy. On the 19th October 1847 Smith Elder published Jane Eyre by Currer Bell. It was an immediate success and sold well. In 1848 Smith Elder bought up the remaining 969 copies of poems from Aylott & Jones and replaced the title page with their own but still dated it 1846. This being one of those copies. By the end of 1848 Smith Elder had sold all the copies. It seems some had advertisements tipped in at the rear but this copy has none; however, it does bear the Armorial book plate of the 14th Earl of Derby; Edward George Geoffrey Smith-Stanley (29th March 1799 - 23 October 1869), known as Lord Stanley from 1834 to 1851, he was a British Statesman and Conservative politician who served three times as British Prime Minister. To date, he is the longest serving leader of the Conservative party and is one of only a dozen people to have had memorial statues erected to them in Parliament Square. Our copy still retains the elusive errata slip. Also included are two letters hand written by Lord Stanley and each signed by him; one as Stanley and the other as Derby. Housed in a quarter morocco solander box made by The Wyvern Bindery in royal blue leather with gilt tooling to spine. Author, title and date in gilt to spine. New spine by The Wyvern Bindery with gilt titles, Pages re-sewn. Original boards and pastedowns. No marks or inscriptions internally save Lord Stanley's bookplate. A very handsome and unique copy of this scarce title. Signed by Author(s).

First edition. Three volumes. 12mo. 190x110mm. pp. [4], 358; [2], 366; [2], 342. Bound by Bayntun-Riviere (for Henry Sotheran) in modern green half morocco, boards covered in green linen. Spine lettered in gilt, five raised bands with gilt wavy line, compartments decorated with a single gilt border. Marbled endpapers. A neat, attractive binding in excellent condition. Internally very good with only slight foxing in places. Repair to half title in volume I. Two leaves (Q11 of volume I and D2 of volume III) have been expertly repaired and there is a closed tear to the foot of D9 of volume III not affecting the text. Volume 1 lacking final leaf with publisher's advertisements. A very good copy of the scarce first edition of Anne Brontė's only separately published novel. 500 copies were printed but no more than 300 were issued as the first edition. The book sold well and the remaining copies were issued a few months later, with a new title page and a (now celebrated) preface by Anne, as the second edition. Initially regarded by some critics (not least her sister Charlotte who thought the subject matter a "mistake") as "coarse" and "revolting" but now seen as a prescient and innovative in its realistic handling of subjects such as alcoholism, marital disarray and mental collapse that nineteenth century writers tended to address obliquely, if at all. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is regarded as one of the first feminist novels in its sympathetic treatment of a woman asserting her freedom in the face of male abuse. But it is a multi-layered, complex book as we can see from Charlotte Brontė's harsh but perceptive view that the novel was written "under a strange conscientious, half-ascetic notion of accomplishing a painful penance and a severe duty. Blameless in deed and almost in thought - there was from her [Anne's] very childhood a tinge of religious melancholy in her mind".
Half Morocco and Cloth. Condition: Good+. First Edition. Three volumes complete - Volume One - [4], 358pp, [2] adverts; Volume Two - [2], 366pp, and Volume Three - [2], 342pp. Later half morocco and cloth by Riviere for Sotheran, raised bands, spines in six panels, title lettered directly to second panel, author and volume number to third, date to foot, remaining panels gilt with central tudor rose, from which emanates four trefoils with pointille background, dotted roll to bands and head and foot, with single line to covers, t.e.g. Externally very slightly rubbed to extremities, spines very slightly faded, but generally bright. Text leaves lightly browned, occasional marginal soiling and very light spotting, small hole to bottom edge of half title, I1 with a small ink mark catching a letter, but with no loss of sense, small nick to fore edge of Q3 in volume three, but generally fairly clean. With the half title to volume one and final advertisement leaf, as called for. Bookplate of Howard Douglas and Leonard Galton to front pastedowns. Anne Bronte's second novel after 'Agnes Grey', now hailed as one of the first feminist novels. Block, page 29; Smith 4; Symington, page 127; Wise, pages 106-110 Size: 8vo.
