For the New Oxford Dictionary of National Biography published in September 2004, Angela has written the entries on William Michael Rossetti and Lucy Madox Brown Rossetti. The life of William Michael Rossetti was featured on-line as one of the ‘Lives of the Week’ (together with King Alfred and Britannia) during the first week of publication. A genuinely modest man, he would have been amazed.



The Italian Cultural Institute in London hosted a conference on the Rossetti family’s links between Italy and England on 5 November 2004. Angela contributed an illustrated talk: ‘William and Lucy: Italy, England and Cosmopolitanism’.
