		The goal before the young Rossetti's eyes was to reach through art the forgotten world of old romance - that world of wonder and mystery and spiritual beauty which the old masters knew and could have painted had not lack of science, combined with slavery to monkish traditions of asceticism, crippled their strength.
		Rossetti's poetry, and his prose too, is marked by an extraordinary fastidiousness of expression and beauty of diction; the form and colour of his style are alike marvellous in clearness and loveliness of language.
		One of the most wonderful of Rossetti's endowments, however, was neither of a literary nor an artistic kind: it was that of a rare and most winning personality which attracted towards itself, as if by an unconscious magnetism, the love of all his friends, the love, indeed, of all who knew him.

	Sappho and Christina Rossetti
		Rossetti had her own circle in which she was educated: the coterie of the family.

Both poems contemplate the afterlife of Sappho (Prins 203).

		Christina Rossetti’s poem "Goblin Market" is widely known for its commentary on the religious and social framework of nineteenth-century England.
		Rossetti plays on the dual meaning of "sister," referring to both a family member and a spiritual person, tying the framework together.
		Morrill suggests that there are elements of vampirism in the Christina Rossetti poem "Goblin Market," and that these elements may have been inspired from Rossetti’s exposure to (her uncle) John Polidori’s novel, The Vampyre (1819).
