Up-Hill: An Allegory Cover

Abstract

The Christina Rossetti poem “Up-Hill” (1862) is an exemplary poem of the Victorian era by one of the rare female poets of the time, including Emily Brontë, Elizabeth Browning, Katherine Tynan, and Alice Meynell. Rossetti, typical of the era and the Victorian genre, wrote allegories about faith and love. She came from a distinguished literary family. “Up-Hill” was one of her better-known works.
