I made this PowerPoint in preparation for my A-Level English exam, in which I achieved an A*. This document contains detailed annotations of every line of the poem broken up by stanza. The annotations include insight into context, literary techniques and links to other Rossetti poems.
• Rossetti’s religious beliefs, including belief in the afterlife-
• Her personal life – love and family
• In Greek myth, “Echo” was a nymph who helped Zeus commit
adultery by distracting his wife, Hera. Once Hera found out,
she made her unable to speak except to repeat someone else’s
last words. Echo fell in love with Narcissus but as she could
only echo him, he rejected her, and she pined away until only
her voice remained.
