When it comes to England’s literary heritage, few figures command quite as much fascination as the Brontë sisters. Over two centuries on from their births, Charlotte (1816–1855), Emily (1818–1848), and Anne (1820–1849) remain celebrated figures, heralded for works like
Jane Eyre,
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, respectively.
Emily was relatively little-known in her lifetime, having written her famous tragic love story in 1847, a year before her death of tuberculosis aged just 30. Now, however, she’s regarded as a canonical writer – and in exciting news for bibliophiles, a volume of her handwritten poems is part of a trove of literary artefacts going up for sale at Sotheby’s. ....

Emily Brontë's handwritten poems are highlight of 'lost library' auction | Manuscripts and letters

An “incredibly rare” handwritten manuscript of Emily Brontë’s poems, with pencil corrections by her sister Charlotte, is going up for auction as part of a “lost library” that has been out of public view for nearly a century.
The collection was put together by Arthur Bell Nicholls, the widower of Charlotte, who of the six Brontë children lived the longest, dying in 1855 at the age of 38. Nicholls sold the majority of the surviving Brontë manuscripts in 1895 to the notorious bibliophile and literary forger Thomas James Wise. The collectors and brothers Alfred and William Law, who grew up 20 miles from the Brontë family home in Haworth, then acquired some of the family’s heirlooms from Wise, including the manuscript of Emily’s poems, and the family’s much-annotated copy of A History of British Birds, a book immortalised in Jane Eyre. ....
