Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) was an English writer of romantic, religious and children’s poems. Celebrated today as an inspiration for Virginia Woolf’s writings, Rossetti's work spans themes of female sexuality with ‘The Goblin Market’ and issues of self-indulgence, devotion and patience with ‘The Prince’s Progress’. She volunteered at St Mary Magdalene house of charity in Highgate, a refuge for ex-prostitutes, and openly opposed slavery in the United States during the years of the American Civil War. Rossetti remains a prominent female poet, associated with Elizabeth Barret Browning as her predecessor.
