To what extent and in what ways do The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories, Goblin Market and Rebecca unsettle cultural definitions of gender and/or sexuality? Christina Rossetti, Daphne du Maurier and Angela Carter question and unsettle contemporary ideas of gender and sexuality respectively in Goblin Market, Rebecca and The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories. Each author, writing at different periods in history and therefore different eras in terms of both the women’s rights movement and the…

The theme of obsession and addiction is evident throughout Christina Rossetti’s poem, Goblin Market. Goblin Market can be interpreted as a storyline unfolding the symptoms, signs, treatment, and the overall dangers of drug addiction. From the beginning lines, the goblins are identified as drug dealing creatures. Rossetti creates a drug-dealing setting where the male creatures are the sellers, and the young unmarried women are the customers. The robotic crying of the goblins, ‘Come buy, come buy’…

The Tyrant I sat there against the great oak tree, that was normally the epicentre of life in our small community,staring off into the distant lands. In the distance wars were being fought. Great uproar has been wrought across all of middle earth. This uproar was the result of goblin conflicts. The goblins have never been seen as a real threat because they tend to be reserved, keeping to their mountains filled with darkness. There has always been no doubt, thought, that the goblins have impure…

“The Goblin Market”, written by Christina Rossetti, portrays an interesting point of view using symbolism to describe violence and sexual abuse in an imaginary setting.

A…

of temptation. Much of this had to do with sexual immorality, so it was also unacceptable for women to talk about such temptations regarding love and sex. In fact, for a woman to think about such things might even have been considered showing a lack of restraint. Two writers, Christina Rossetti and Emily Barrett Browning, both conform to this idea of restraint, and defy it, as shown through their lives and works, specifically “Goblin Market” and Sonnets from the Portuguese by Rossetti and…

Women during the Victorian Era experienced some brutal battles, similar to those expressed in Christina Rossetti’s “Goblin Market,” and Elizabeth Browning’s “The Runaway Slave at Pilgrim’s Point.” Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Christina Rossetti both present the themes, the cruelty of women and the necessity of family’s love to thoroughly describe their hardships and braveness for one another. Rossetti’s character encounters assault to aid her sister out of depression, while Browning’s kills…

There is a strong sense of truth to Katja Brandt’s statement that Christina Rossetti uses the women in her poem, “Goblin Market”, to act as spiritual guides rather than a subservient female characters. Instead of making her female characters into passive figures, like many authors did at the time of the poem’s publication, Rossetti makes her characters into transmitters of a higher truth. Brandt accurately identifies that the female characters in “Goblin Market” act as religious interpreters.…
