Fans of poet Christina Georgina Rossetti will enjoy this extensive, digitized collection of original manuscripts, letters, photographs, and more from the University of Texas at Austin's Harry Ransom Center. This remarkable collection includes a 316-page manuscript of Rossetti's 1881 A Pageant and Other Poems, handwritten and autographed; fourteen letters composed by Rossetti to painter Frederick James Shields; and a letter between Rossetti and her brother, Dante (notably, the Ransom Center is also home to an archival collection about Dante Rosetti). Visitors may Browse all items in the collection, or more narrowly by Works or Letters. These materials were recently digitized as part of the Ransom Center's Project REVEAL (Read and View English and American Literature), a project designed to make the manuscript collections of 25 different authors more accessible to the general public and to establish best practices for future digitization projects.
