A new and thoroughly revised selection of Christina Rossetti's poems, with an introduction from Rachel Mann.
Christina Rossetti has come to be considered one of the major poets. ""The Letters of Christina Rossetti"" makes available all of her extant letters, almost two-thirds of which have never before been published. These letters come from over 100 private and institutional collections. The fourth and final volume covers the last eight years of her life.
The third volume of ""Letters..."" covers years in which Christina Rossetti lost several important family members, including her mother, her brother Dante, and a young nephew, Michael. In the face of her loss, she turned increasingly to religion and wrote works of devotional prose.
The letters in this volume show the woman Rossetti was at this time in her life. By 1874 she was an established poet with a literary reputation among her contemporaries. But her personal life was overshadowed by the deaths and illness of close friends, and her own affliction with Graves' disease. In the VICTORIAN LITERATURE AND CULTURE series.

With an Introduction and Notes by Katherine McGowran.Christina Rossetti is widely regarded as the most considerable woman poet in England before the twentieth century. No reading of nineteenth century poetry can be complete without attention to this prolific and popular poet. Rosetti's inner life dominates her poetry, exploring loss and unattainable hope.Her divine poems have a freshness and toughness of thought, while many of her love poems are erotic, and as often express love for women as for men. The varied threads of Rossetti's concerns are drawn together in what is perhaps her greatest poem, the strange and ambiguous 'Goblin Market'.
For blandet kor a cappella. Tekster af Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830-94).
Den engelske digter Christina Rossettis sensuelle og syrede langdigt Nissemarkedet er fra 1862. Digtet fortæller om de unge søster Lizzie og Laura og deres møde med nissekøbmændene i kløften i skoven. Nissemændene sælger farlige frugter fulde af safter, og Laura kan ikke modstå deres kalden og hengiver sig til nissernes fristelser. Bagefter sygner hun dog hen, og så må søsteren Lizzie tilbage ud i skoven og se, om han kan snøre nissemændene til at få deres safter på sine kinder så hendes søster derhjemme kan slikke dem af, uden at Lizzie selv indtager dem.
