Critical Response #5

To what extent does Christina Rossetti’s “Goblin Market” illustrate some or any of the Victorian women’s social issues that we have been reading and discussing in relation to “The Woman Question,” “The Angel in the House,” The Madwoman in the Attic, The Subjection of Women, and also the George Eliot and Virginia Woolf readings? Is “Goblin Market” a feminist poem, or does it act as more of an example of a poem that supports some of the imposed Victorian social values in relation to women? To what extent does it support and/or challenge those imposed values? You must discuss The Madwoman in the Attic and/or The Subjection of Women in this paper. You must also discuss at least one of the other readings in relation to “Goblin Market” in this paper, but you are required to discuss The Madwoman in the Attic and/or The Subjection of Women.

Please write a critical response based on this question. Your paper should be 2-3 pages long (meaning at least 2 full pages), double-spaced, with 1” margins using Times New Roman 12 point font, and it should conform to the Critical Response Papers Rubric handed out in class and also available on Blackboard. You must also use at least 4 direct quotations from the poem to support the claims that you make in your paper, cited with parenthetical references in correct MLA format. Be sure to list the line numbers of the quotations rather than the page numbers in your parenthetical references, with line breaks represented by slashes in the quotation: “‘Lie close,’ Laura said, / Pricking up her golden head:” (Rossetti lines 40-41).
