Rossetti, Christina (Georgina)
- Rossetti, Christina (Georgina)
(5 dic. 1830, Londres, Inglaterra–29 dic. 1894, Londres).
Poeta inglesa. La menor de los hijos de Gabriele Rossetti y hermana de Dante Gabriel Rossetti, encontró inspiración en su profunda fe religiosa. Los libros El Mercado de los duendes (1862) y The Prince's Progress [El ascenso del príncipe] (1866) contienen lo mejor de su obra. Su mejor poesía se distingue por su fuerza, intimismo y naturalidad, su fama se debe en gran medida a su capacidad para conciliar lo pasional y lo devoto de su naturaleza. Su libro Sing-Song [Sonsonete] (1872; ampliado en 1893), una colección de canciones de cuna, es uno de los libros de poesía infantiles más notables del s. XIX. Tras sufrir la acometida de un desorden tiroideo, se dedicó a escribir casi exclusivamente poesía religiosa.
