William Blake

"William Blake (28 November 1757 – 12 August 1827) was an English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age. What he called his prophetic works were said by 20th-century critic Northrop Frye to form ""what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language"". His visual artistry led 21st-century critic Jonathan Jones to proclaim him ""far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced"". In 2002, Blake was placed at number 38 in the BBC's poll of the 100 Greatest Britons. Although he lived in London his entire life (except for three years spent in Felpham), he produced a diverse and symbolically rich œuvre, which embraced the imagination as ""the body of God"" or ""human existence itself"".

Samenvatting

William Blake's THE BOOK OF URIZEN (Illustrated Edition) is a complex and visionary work that delves into the realms of mythology, philosophy, and religion. Written in a unique poetic style that combines prose and verse, the book explores the character of Urizen, a mythological figure who represents the limitations of reason and intellect. The mesmerizing illustrations accompanying the text enhance the reader's understanding of Blake's intricate symbolism and metaphysical themes. The Book of Urizen is a significant example of Blake's prophetic works, showcasing his revolutionary ideas and creative genius within the Romantic literary context. The book's exploration of human nature, divine creation, and the struggle between imagination and reason will captivate readers interested in symbolic literature and philosophical inquiry.
