17,000 Articles from the Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th & 12th eds. William Michael Rossetti (1829–1919) Poet and art-critic, brother of Dante Gabriel and Christina Georgina Rossetti; born in London on the 25th of September 1829, and educated at King’s College School, London. Mr. Rossetti, who long held a post in the English civil service, came to notice as a critic of fine art and literature in 1850. He was much engaged (together with his brother, Millais, Holman Hunt, Woolner and others) in “Pre-Raphaelite” art from its commencement in 1848; and he edited and wrote for The Germ, a magazine conducted by the Pre-Raphaelites in 1850. He published Dante’s Comedy, the Hell (translated into blank verse, 1865); Fine Art, Chiefly Contemporary (1867), a volume of republished criticisms; an edition of Shelley’s Poetical Works (1870; revised edition, 1878), with a memoir and a large body of notes; Lives of Famous Poets (1878), being brief biographies of British poets, from Chaucer to Tennyson, some of them reproduced from the series named Moxon’s Popular Poets, with others added; an edition of the Collected Works of Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1887); a Life of Keats (1887), in the series of Great Writers; and Dante Gabriel Rossetti as Designer and Writer (1889). He also edited, with a memoir, William Blake’s Poems, in the Aldine series; and in 1868 issued a selection from the Poems of Walt Whitman. Among his other works are a poem of modern life, Mrs. Holmes Grey (1869); and a Criticism of Swinburne’s Poems and Ballads (1866). Mr. Rossetti delivered in 1875 a series of lectures on Shelley’s Life and Poems, and on The Wives of Poets. In 1890 he published a copiously annotated edition of Shelley’s Adonais in the Clarendon Press series; also editions at various times of Coleridge, Campbell, Keats and Milton. He also edited a collection of his sister, Christina Rossetti’s Poems (1896). He wrote the article on Shelley, in this Encyclopædia, and contributed more than a score of other articles, the most of them treating of Italian painters.
