C. S. Lewis was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and without a doubt one of the most influential writers of his day.

Episode 102: Christina Rossetti: A Woman of her Time

A Literary Cornucopia ·

2024/04/28

Much has been said about this poet. I can only add that after re-reading her poetry, I realize how unique she was not only as a poet but as a woman of strength in many ways. The Victorian Period produced two notable poets: Elizabeth Barrette Browning and Christina Georgina Rossetti. Each had her own style but of the two, Christina has left an indelible mark in my soul. ~~LMM --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/luisa-molina/message

After nearly two centuries, why does his body of work appeal to so many? Is it due to the mystery that surrounds his personna? You can check his poetry out at
