Bio Christina Rossetti was a significant figure in the Victorian literary scene, known for her lyrical and deeply spiritual poetry. Associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement, she explored themes of faith, love, death, and renunciation in her works. Her best-known poem, Goblin Market, is both a fairy tale and a complex allegory about temptation and sisterhood. Rossetti's devout Anglican faith heavily influenced her later works, and she remains a key figure in both religious and women's literature of the Victorian era.
