Sobre este artículo
Paris: Librairie de L. Hachette et Cie., 1858. [4], 299, [1], 8pp. With a half-title and four terminal leaves of publisher's advertisements. Uncut in original publisher's printed powder-blue wrappers. A trifle rubbed and browned, spine sunned. Light marginal dampstaining to initial two gatherings, scattered spotting. An early issue of the first edition in French of Charlotte Brontë's first completed novel, The Professor (1857). Initially submitted to publishers along with the efforts of her sisters, Wuthering Heights and Agnes Grey, and then independently, the book was rejected by numerous publishing houses, it was eventually published posthumously in 1857, with the approval of Brontë's widower, Arthur Bell Nicholls, who edited the text. This is evidently a later issue as it includes on the lower wrapper advertisements for titles published after 1858, for example Gaskell's Autour du Sofa (1859). . First edition in French, early issue. 12mo.
