Christina Rossetti si afferma come una delle più importanti poetesse inglesi del diciannovesimo secolo. La sua opera, profondamente radicata nel sentimento religioso, esplora temi di fede, pentimento e ricerca spirituale con profonda introspezione. Rossetti possedeva un forte senso morale che informò sia la sua scrittura che la sua vita personale. Il suo stile è caratterizzato da una qualità melodica e da immagini vivide, che trascinano il lettore in un mondo di conflitti interiori e risoluzioni piene di speranza.

This work comprises a collection of the poetic works of 19th century poet Christina Rossetti. Rossetti's inner life dominates her poetry, exploring the themes of loss and unattainable hope across subjects ranging from love to the divine.
Jesuit priest Gerard Manley Hopkins created verse that combined his awareness of material sensuousness with the asceticism of religious devotion. His collected poems, published posthumously in 1918, exercised a profound influence on modern poetry. This volume features all of his mature work, including "The Wreck of the Deutschland," "God's Grandeur," and "Hurrahing in Harvest."
The narrative poem explores the gothic themes of temptation and mortality through the story of two young sisters. Richly illustrated by Arthur Rackham, it combines lyrical beauty with a haunting atmosphere, immersing readers in a world where innocence is challenged by sin and death.

An important and often-quoted literary figure, the English poet Christina Rossetti (1830–1894) wrote some of the most beautiful and voluptuous poetry in the English language. Like Emily Dickinson, she lived in self-imposed isolation, writing of God and lost love with a sensuality and passion that seemed to emanate from the soul.This edition of 53 works combines a number of her best-known sonnets, ballads, and shorter lyrics with her long masterpiece, the narrative fable Goblin Market . A haunting fairy tale in verse, Goblin Market was once labeled a children's poem, yet its intricate symbolism and themes of temptation, sin, and redemption mark it for an adult audience. Among other works included in this choice collection are "The Convent Threshold," "Up-hill," "Cousin Kate," " My Secret," "Maude Clare," "No, Thank You, John," and "After Death."
