Since C.H. Sisson's ground-breaking Selected Poems (Carcanet,
1984), Christina Rossetti's readership has burgeoned. Almost a
century ago Ford Madox Ford claimed her as 'the most valuable poet
that the Victorian age produced', and - as Valentine Cunningham
recently declared - she now sits at top table with Tennyson,
Browning, Hopkins and Barrett Browning. Feminist and queer scholars
have since laid claim to Rossetti; but her Anglo-Catholic faith was
never incidental to the power of even her most secular poems and is
at the heart of her imaginative work. As an Anglican priest and
poet, Rachel Mann in her selection appreciates Rossetti's ambition
while attending, too, to recent scholarship that focuses on the
religious, feminist and fantastical elements in her work.
