- Synopsis
- During his lifetime and for more than a century after his death, Blake's literary achievement lay hidden in obscurity. The disarming simplicity of his early songs and the often distressing complexity of his later "prophetic" books have made it easy for the ordinary reader as well as the experienced critic to dismiss the radical brilliance of his vision. As the essays in this book show, Blake offers his readers a vision of the world so coherent that even his simplest songs convey rich and exciting meaning, so unified that even his most obscure prophecies present an unexpectedly luminous conception of reality.
