The book ""Letters of William Michael Rossetti: Concerning Whitman, Blake and Shelley"" is a collection of personal letters written by William Michael Rossetti, a prominent writer and art critic of the Victorian era. The letters in this book discuss the works of three influential poets: Walt Whitman, William Blake, and Percy Bysshe Shelley. Rossetti's letters provide a unique insight into the thoughts and opinions of a contemporary critic on the works of these poets. He discusses the themes, style, and literary techniques used by each poet, as well as their impact on the literary world. The book is divided into three sections, each focusing on one of the poets. The first section contains letters discussing the works of Walt Whitman, the American poet who was a controversial figure in his time due to his unconventional style and subject matter. The second section focuses on William Blake, the English poet and artist who is known for his visionary and mystical works. The final section is dedicated to Percy Bysshe Shelley, the English Romantic poet who is famous for his lyrical and political works.Overall, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into the literary world of the Victorian era and the critical reception of some of the most influential poets of the time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the works of Whitman, Blake, or Shelley, as well as for those interested in the history of literary criticism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

William Michael Rossetti (1829–1919) always presented himself as the third Rossetti: a civil servant and critic unworthy to be compared with his brother, Dante Gabriel, and his sister, Christina. Not everyone has readily accepted Rossetti's evaluation of himself. The painter William Rothenstein remembered him as a man whose "outlook on life was broad and humane," and the only one of the Pre-Raphaelites "who was sympathetic towards the work of younger writers and painters." More recently, Professor W. E. Fredeman has written of him as "among the P.R.B.s... almost the only man of action," and the essential figure in the founding of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and its magazine, The Germ. The publication of this edition of more than six hundred of his letters (most of them previously unpublished), to such leading literary and artistic figures as Holman Hunt, Ford Madox Brown, Dante Gabriel and Christina Rossetti, Browning, Swinburne, Whistler, and Whitman, demonstrates convincingly the range and quality of his friendships, his active involvement in the cultural life of Victorian England, and the complexity of his character. The letters also offer a detailed account of his powerful advocacy of the work of Blake and Shelley, of Swineburne and Whitman among his contemporaries, and, after their deaths, of Dante Gabriel and Christina Rossetti. Throughout his life Rossetti was intensely aware of the political and social events of his time, both in Europe and the United States, and the letters contain numerous references to the Crimean, Franco-Prussian, and Boer wars, the Paris Commune, the American Civil War, women's suffrage, and Italian unification. The letters have been extensively annotated, making use of the hundreds of letters by Rossetti not included in the edition, his twenty-volume diary, and the thousands of letters to him preserved in the Angeli-Dennis Papers at the University of British Columbia.
