Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) fue una de las voces más destacadas de la poesía victoriana en Inglaterra. Su obra se caracteriza por una sensibilidad profunda que explora temas como la espiritualidad, el sacrificio, el amor y la condición femenina en una sociedad marcada por convenciones rígidas. Su primer gran éxito fue Goblin Market and Other Poems (1862), libro que la consagró como una poeta singular por su fuerza imaginativa y el simbolismo de sus versos.

A lo largo de su trayectoria desarrolló una poesía cargada de imágenes líricas y un estilo distintivo que la situó como referente dentro del movimiento prerrafaelita, en sintonía con el trabajo artístico de su hermano Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Aunque no recibió premios en vida, su obra fue revalorizada con el tiempo y hoy se la reconoce como una de las poetas más influyentes del siglo XIX, cuya voz aún resuena con vigor en la literatura inglesa.
