| 1 | The Poetry of Christina Georgina Rossett | Christina Georgina Rossetti |
| Christina Georgina Rossetti – An Introduction. Christina was born in London in 1830 one of four children who were all to become artists and writers. Educated at home, her life was filled with the Italian influences of her Father and the wide ranging interests of her mother. She began to write at age 12 as her Fathers health broke and the family’s descended to near poverty. She first published aged 18 and over the following decade her writing was to flourish and in 1860 her most famous work Goblin Market was released and her reputation was set. A sufferer from Graves disease from the 1870’s she also developed breast cancer which subsequently recurred and was to cause her death in 1894. She is buried in Highgate Cemetery. 01 - Christina Georgina Rossetti - An Introduction 02 - A Birthday 03 - A Pause Of Thought 04 - A Study, A Soul 05 - Sonnets Are Full Of Love 06 - Dreamland 07 - Echo 08 - By The Sea 09 - Ferry Me Across The Water 10 - Frog & Toad 11 - If A Mouse Could Fly 12 - The City Mouse And The Country Mouse 13 - Lambs At Play 14 - A Spring Carol 15 - In The Willow Shade 16 - Summer 17 - Summer Is Ended 18 - If All Were Rain And Never Sun 19 - An October Garden 20 - Christmas Eve 21 - Good Friday 22 - A Years Windfalls 23 - How Many Seconds In A Minute 24 - Who Has Seen The World 25 - Wife To Husband 26 - Bitter For Sweet 27 - If Stars Dropped Out Of Heaven 28 - An Emerald Is As Green As Grass 29 - Is The Moon Tired 30 - Goblin Market 31 - In The Bleak Midwinter 32 - Winter - My Secret 33 - January Cold Desolate 34 - After This The Judgement 35 - After Death 36 - Sappho 37 - Goodbye In Fear Goodbye In Sorrow 38 - Dead Before Death 39 - Life And Death 40 - Remember 41 - Requiem |
