Influenced by such poets as Keats, Blake, Wordsworth, Shelley, and Coleridge, they popularized the notion of "l'art pour l'art"-art for art's sake. Featuring selections by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Christina Rossetti, William Morris, Elizabeth Siddal, Algernon Charles Swinburne, and William Allingham, among others, and celebrating romantic love, artistic inspiration, and sexuality, this volume shines a light on an important chapter in British poetry and maps the Pre- Raphaelite movement's efforts to reshape the artistic and literary world of Victorian Britain.
The Pre-Raphaelite Movement began in 1848, and experienced its heyday in the 1860s and 1870s. Influenced by the then little-known Keats and Blake, as well as Wordsworth, Shelley and Coleridge, Pre-Raphaelite poetry 'etherialized sensation' (in the words of Antony Harrison), and popularized the notion ofl'art pour l'art - art for art's sake.
