Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 5 page report discusses the psychoanalytical
aspects of the short story by Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) “The
Lost Titian” that was published in 1856. It is worth noting that
her works’ apparent simplicity often masks a darker and far more
intellectual stream of consciousness. From a psychoanalytical
perspective it is quite clear that there is much more to the
writer and her work which may, in itself, serve as a metaphor for
a creative and unique woman of the Victorian age. Bibliography
lists 3 sources.

Rossettis poetry -- both devotional and secular -- arises from her conception of nature and the human self as entities which are forever poised between self-assertion and self-destruction. Natures repetitive
cycles are stressed by references to the turning of the seasons; images of decay, destruction, and threat are often starkly juxtaposed with images of renewal, creation, and harmony. Rossettis personas
