Christina Rossetti's Two Older Brothers Had Already Been Trying to Further CHRISTINA ROSSETTI’S “GOBLIN MARKET”: THE EROTICISM OF FEMALE MYSTICS BRITTA ZANGEN Christina Rossetti’s two older brothers had already been trying to further their sister’s poetic career for some years, but with little success. However, a breakthrough finally came in 1861-62. She had just turned thirty and had been writing poetry for some two decades, when what was to be the decisive year started yet again with a setback: Dante Gabriel’s own famous patron John Ruskin refused to provide any help with his sister’s poetry. Although Ruskin recognized the poet’s “observation and passion” and the poems’ “beauty and power”, their “Irregular measure” – this “calamity of modern poetry” – was as unacceptable to him as the poems’ “quaintnesses and offences” would no doubt be to any publisher.1 She should, he decreed, “exercise herself in the severest commonplace of metre until she can write as the public like”, and then “all will become precious”. Fortunately for the history of poetry, there was a more far-sighted man than Ruskin: in the same year Alexander Macmillan, who, with his late brother, had been making quite a success of his publishing house, published three of her poems in Macmillan’s Magazine to great acclaim.2 In autumn he “took the liberty”, as he wrote to Dante Gabriel Rossetti, of reading the Goblin Market aloud to a number of people .... They seemed at first to wonder whether I was making fun of them; by degrees they got as still as death, and when I finished there was a tremendous burst of applause.3 1 Ruskin: Rossetti: Preraphaelitism. Papers 1854 to 1862, ed. William Michael Rossetti, London, 1899, 258-59. 2 They were “Up-hill”, “A Birthday” and “An Apple Gathering”. 3 The Rossetti-Macmillan Letters: Some 133 Unpublished Letters Written to Alexander Macmillan, F.S. Ellis, and Others, by Dante Gabriel, Christina, and William Michael Rossetti, 1861-1889, ed. Lona Mosk Packer, Berkeley, 1963, 7. 248 Britta Zangen In early 1862 he brought out Chistina Rossetti’s first collection of poems, Goblin Market and Other Poems.4 “Goblin Market” was met with bewilderment and disapproval but also with enthusiasm. Ever since the revival of interest in Rossetti, it has been accepted as a masterpiece, not least due to second-wave feminist scholarship in the 1970s. By 1985 Jerome McGann was able to assert: “The point hardly needs argument, for no one has ever questioned its achievement and mastery.”5 Perhaps it is for this reason that “Goblin Market” has attracted more interpretations than any of Rossetti’s numerous other poems – interpretations not only greater in number but also more radically diverse than those of any other poem I know. Essays on “Goblin Market” often contain comments on its “multifarious [critical interpretations]”,6 its being “very complex”7 or “most persistently puzzling”.8 The poem has baffled critics with regard to its genre, its main themes, and its sexual overtones. Regarding genre it has been placed in such widely different categories as a nursery rhyme, a fairy-tale or a fairy-tale for adults, an erotic fantasy, a Gothic tale, a horror story, a Christian allegory. Its main themes have been designated a critique of capitalism, a celebration of sisterhood, a propaganda piece for lesbianism, a case study of anorexia nervosa, a rewriting of the Fall, a story of redemption. Christina Rossetti’s poems are also widely understood as some kind of unacknowledged autobiographical treasure trove. This kind of interpretation usually harps on Rossetti’s two unfulfilled engagements or it relies on some unknown love affairs of hers.9 Personal disappointments in love are thus taken to be the models for her (in McGann’s words) “all but obsessive studies of women in love”. He calls all these efforts 4 This is apart from the small volume privately printed by her grandfather when she was sixteen. 5 Jerome McGann, The Beauty of Inflections: Literary Investigations in Historical Method and Theory, Oxford, 1985, 220. 6 Sean C.

In response, this article focuses on the death writing of Alice James and Christina Rossetti, reading the central role of death in their work as a way of articulating a space of possibility beyond what life has to offer.

  • Pre-Raphaelites and the Book
    Pre-Raphaelites and the Book February 17 – August 4, 2013 National Gallery of Art Pre-Raphaelites and the Book Many artists of the Pre-Raphaelite circle were deeply engaged with integrating word and image throughout their lives. John Everett Millais and Edward Burne-Jones were sought-after illustrators, while Dante Gabriel Rossetti devoted himself to poetry and the visual arts in equal measure. Intensely attuned to the visual and the liter- ary, William Morris became a highly regarded poet and, in the last decade of his life, founded the Kelmscott Press to print books “with the hope of producing some which would have a definite claim to beauty.” He designed all aspects of the books — from typefaces and ornamental elements to layouts, where he often incorporated wood- engraved illustrations contributed by Burne-Jones.

  • Pre-Raphaelite Poetry
    Dr.Pem Prakash Pankaj Asst.Professor,English Dept Vanijya Mahavidyalaya,PU Mob-8210481859 [email protected] For B.A (English Hons.) Part-1/ English Alternative Part-1 (50 marks) PRE-RAPHAELITE POETRY The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (later known as the Pre-Raphaelites) was a group of English painters, poets, and art critics, founded in 1848 by William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Michael Rossetti, James Collinson, Frederic George Stephens and Thomas Woolner who formed a seven-member "Brotherhood" modelled in part on the Nazarene movement. The Brotherhood was only ever a loose association and their principles were shared by other artists of the time, including Ford Madox Brown, Arthur Hughes and Marie Spartali Stillman. Later followers of the principles of the Brotherhood included Edward Burne-Jones, William Morris and John William Waterhouse. Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB), founded in September 1848, is the most significant British artistic grouping of the nineteenth century. Its fundamental mission was to purify the art of its time by returning to the example of medieval and early Renaissance painting. Although the life of the brotherhood was short, the broad international movement it inspired, Pre-Raphaelitism, persisted into the twentieth century and profoundly influenced the aesthetic movement, symbolism, and the Arts and Crafts movement. First to appear was Dante Gabriel Rossetti's Girlhood of Mary Virgin (1849), in which passages of striking naturalism were situated within a complex symbolic composition. Already a published poet, Rossetti inscribed verse on the frame of his painting. In the following year, Millais's Christ in the House of His Parents (1850) was exhibited at the Royal Academy to an outraged critical reception.

  • Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal(25 July 1829 - 11 February 1862) Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal was an English artists' model, poet and artist who was painted and drawn extensively by artists of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, including Walter Deverell, William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais (including Millais' 1852 painting Ophelia) and most of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's early paintings of women. <b>Early Life</b> Named Elizabeth Eleanor Siddall, after her mother, Lizzie was born on 25 July 1829, at the family’s home at 7 Charles Street, Hatton Garden. She was born to Charles Crooke Siddall, who claimed that his family descended from nobility, and Eleanor Evans, a family of both English and Welsh descent. At the time of Lizzie’s birth, her parents were not poverty stricken: her father had his own cutlery- making business. Around 1831, the Siddall family moved to the borough of Southwark, in south London, a less salubrious area than Hatton Garden. It was in Southwark that the rest of Lizzie’s siblings were born: Lydia, to whom Lizzie was particularly close, Mary, Clara, James and Henry. Although there is no record of her having attended school, Lizzie was able to read and write, presumably having been taught by her parents. She developed a love of poetry at a young age, after discovering a poem by Tennyson on a scrap of newspaper that had been used to wrap a pat of butter; this discovery was one of Lizzie’s inspirations to start writing her own poetry.

  • Christina Rossetti's Literary and Somatic Expressions Of
    humanities Article “Our Self-Undoing”: Christina Rossetti’s Literary and Somatic Expressions of Graves’ Disease Mary Arseneau 1,* and Emery Terrell 2,* 1 Department of English, Hamelin Hall, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, ON K1N 6N5, Canada 2 Faculty of Medicine, Roger Guindon Hall, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, ON K1H 8M5, Canada * Correspondence: [email protected] (M.A.); [email protected] (E.T.) Received: 17 February 2019; Accepted: 18 March 2019; Published: 21 March 2019 Abstract: Victorian poet Christina Rossetti (1830–1894) was frequently troubled by poor health, and her mid-life episode of life-threatening illness (1870–1872) when she suffered from Graves’ disease provides an illuminating case study of the ways that illness can be reflected in poetry and prose. Rossetti, her family, and her doctors understood Graves’ disease as a heart condition; however, Rossetti’s writing reflects a different paradigm, presenting themes of self-attack and a divided self that uncannily parallel the modern understanding of Graves’ disease as autoimmune in nature. Interestingly, these creative representations reflect an understanding of this disease process that Rossetti family documents and the history of Victorian medicine demonstrate Rossetti could not have been aware of. When the crisis had passed, Rossetti’s writing began to include new rhetoric and imagery of self-acceptance and of suffering as a means of spiritual improvement. This essay explores the parallels between literary and somatic metaphors: Rossetti’s body and art are often simultaneously “saying” the same thing, the physical symptoms expressing somatically the same dynamic that is expressed in metaphor and narrative in Rossetti’s creative writing.

  • 1862, Accidental Death Lizzie Siddal and the Poetics of the Coroner's
    1862, Accidental Death Lizzie Siddal and the Poetics of the Coroner’s Inquest “Accidentally and casually and by misfortune.” Such was the verdict of an inquest on the death of “Elizabeth Eleanor Rossetti” (née Elizabeth Siddall, later Siddal) held on February 13, 1862, two days after she died having “Accidentally [taken] an overdose of Laudanum.”1 On February 14, the Daily News reported the “Death of a Lady from an Overdose of Laudanum,” including most of the testimonies from the inquest and closing with a more succinct verdict: “The jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death.” A newspaper in Sheffield printed a similar notice. The coroner and the press seemed to dispose all doubts about the cause of Siddal’s death (Hunt 312). The inquest had been brief and uncomplicated; the case was closed. On February 17, Siddal was buried—along with a notebook of manuscript poems by her recent husband, a bereft Dante Gabriel Rossetti. In 1869, her coffin was famously unclosed, exhumed to recover Rossetti’s book. So had, in the intervening years, the inquest’s verdict of “accidental death” been reopened for scrutiny. Rumors circulated about Lizzie’s death as a possible suicide, whether to end her misery after a recent stillborn daughter, to lash out at Rossetti for emotional abuse and philandering, or to make a desperate cry for help. Oscar Wilde suggested that an exasperated Rossetti had murdered Lizzie by pushing a bottle of laudanum into her hands (Hawksley 205). In her early biography The Wife of Rossetti, Violet Hunt includes an alleged suicide
