Goblin Market, the opening poem in Christina Rossetti's debut collection, Goblin Market and Other Poems, holds a significant historical and literal position within Rossetti's body of work. Despite its immense importance in the Rossetti canon, the publication history of this renowned poem remains incomplete. In her comprehensive study, Maura Ives delves into the overlooked realm of Goblin Market's publication history, encompassing both collected editions and standalone volumes in Britain and the United States. The topics explored include the poem's composition, production, and marketing, as well as its contemporary reception, fine press, miniature, and mass market editions, including versions specifically designed for children. Additionally, the volume explores musical settings and adaptations of Goblin Market. The book concludes with an annotated list of archival sources and published versions of Goblin Market, accompanied by an extensive bibliography.
Beyond its artistic merits, Goblin Market has left an indelible mark on popular culture. Its vivid imagery and unsettling blend of sensuality and Christian symbolism continue to captivate audiences to this day. The poem's influence can be observed in various forms, including a folk-rock duo, restaurants in Manhattan and Florida, and numerous books by other authors. Ives's publishing history of Goblin Market provides valuable insights into the enduring critical and commercial appeal of this captivating Victorian poem, as well as into the evolution of book publishing from the Victorian era to the present.
