Produktbeschreibung

Christina Georgina Rossetti's 'Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress, and Other Poems' is a collection of poems that delve into themes of love, loss, and temptation. Rossetti's poetic style is rich with vivid imagery and symbolism, drawing on Biblical allusions and fairy tale motifs to create a dream-like quality in her works. 'Goblin Market' stands out as a cautionary tale about the dangers of giving in to temptation, while 'The Prince's Progress' explores themes of spiritual growth and redemption. Rossetti's poems are deeply rooted in the Victorian era, reflecting the social and moral values of the time. Christina Georgina Rossetti was a Victorian poet known for her lyrical and introspective works. As a devout Christian, her poetry often reflects her religious beliefs and moral convictions. Rossetti's own struggles with illness and heartbreak are evident in her poetic themes of longing and spiritual yearning. I highly recommend 'Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress, and Other Poems' to readers who appreciate complex symbolism, rich imagery, and profound themes in poetry. Rossetti's timeless works continue to captivate readers with their depth and beauty.
