Democratic Sonnets (1907)

Democratic Sonnets is a collection of sonnets written by William Michael Rossetti and published in 1907. The sonnets explore themes related to democracy, social justice, and human rights. Rossetti was a prominent figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement and was known for his literary and artistic contributions. In this collection, he uses the sonnet form to express his political and social beliefs, often with a critical edge. The poems touch on a range of issues, including poverty, labor rights, and the struggle for democracy. Despite their political focus, the sonnets are also deeply personal and introspective, reflecting Rossetti's own experiences and emotions. The collection is considered an important work of political poetry and a reflection of the social and political climate of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
