Omschrijving

Suggesting that Rossetti’s work should be approached through his poetry, Brian Donnelly argues that it is both inscribed by and inscribes the development of verbal as well as visual culture in the Victorian period. He situates Rossetti’s poetry as the key to all of his work and central in its representation of the dominant discourses of the Victori

'This well-researched and erudite book will appeal to both Rossetti specialists and a broader audience of Victorian scholars. Dealing with both art and literature, Reading Dante Gabriel Rossetti excels in close visual and textual readings and offers fresh insights into the work of the painter-poet.' - Amelia Yeates, Liverpool Hope University, UK

'His book employs a subtly nuanced and groundbreaking approach to the art and poetry of a major nineteenth-century figure that will undoubtedly give rise to similar studies along these lines. Using Donnelly’s example, other themes in Rossetti’s considerable corpus of written and painted work might be treated in this way, and Donnelly’s book will certainly be welcomed as a major development in Rossetti studies.' - J.B. Bullen, Journal of Pre-Raphaelite Studies
