Blake and Conflict

Blake and Conflict

Palgrave Macmillan
2008
sidottu
Famously, Blake believed that 'without contraries' there could be no 'progression'. Conflict was integral to his artistic vision, and his style, but it had more to do with critical engagement than any urge to victory. The essays in this volume look at conflict as it marked Blake's thinking on politics, religion and the visual arts.

Blake on Language, Power, and Self-Annihilation

Blake on Language, Power, and Self-Annihilation

J. Jones

Palgrave Macmillan
2010
sidottu
Against a historical backdrop that includes eighteenth-century language theory, children's literature and education, debates on the French Revolution, Biblical interpretation, and print culture, Blake on Language, Power, and Self-Annihilation breaks new ground in the study of William Blake. This book analyzes the concept of self-annihilation in Blake s work, using the language theories of Mikhail Bakhtin to elucidate the ways in which his discourse was open to the viewpoints of others, undermines institutional authority, and restores dialogue. This book not only uncovers the importance of self-annihilation to Blake's thinking about language and communication, but it also develops its centrality to Blake's poetic practice.

Blake and the Bible

Blake and the Bible

Christopher Rowland

Yale University Press
2011
sidottu
The Bible was crucial for William Blake and for his poetic genius, whether as an object of criticism or as an inspiration. This book—the first substantial study of the topic in sixty years—locates Blake within the broad spectrum of Christian biblical interpretation and explores the ways in which Blake engaged with the Bible. Christopher Rowland argues that Blake's approach to the Bible was broadly consistent, even though he underwent something of a religious change in his later years. The author also shows how Blake saw himself as being in the prophetic tradition and also as somehow continuing the work of John of Patmos, author of the Book of Revelation.

Blake and Homosexuality

Blake and Homosexuality

C. Hobson

Palgrave Macmillan
2001
sidottu
Against the backdrop of Britain's underground 18th and early-19th century homosexual culture, mob persecutions, and executions of homosexuals, Hobson shows how Blake's hatred of sexual and religious hypocrisy and state repression, and his revolutionary social vision, led him gradually to accept homosexuality as an integral part of human sexuality. In the process, Blake rejected the antihomosexual bias of British radical tradition, revised his idealization of aggressive male heterosexuality and his male-centered view of gender, and refined his conception of the cooperative commonwealth.

Blake in the Nineties

Blake in the Nineties

Palgrave Macmillan
1999
sidottu
The 1990s have witnessed a major reassessment of Blake initiated by a new and more rigorous comprehension of his modes of production, which in turn has led to re-evaluation of other literary and cultural contexts for his work. Blake in the Nineties grapples with the implications of the new bibliography for Blake studies, in its editorial, interpretative, and historical dimensions. As well as providing an international overview of recent Blake criticism, the collection contributes to current debates in a variety of disciplines dealing with the Romantic period, including art history, counter-Enlightenment-scholarship, theology and hermeneutic theory.

Blake and Antiquity

Blake and Antiquity

Kathleen Raine

Routledge
2002
sidottu
Blake was a visionary like no other. To some, like William Wordsworth, the only explanation for the remarkable spiritual world Blake witnessed and brought to life in his books was 'insane genius'. Although such a view persisted well into the twentieth century, this is the pivotal work which challenged that perspective and changed forever our understanding of William Blake's genius, placing him in the esoteric tradition. For many this book will be a revelation; for lovers of Blake it is indispensable.

Blake and the New Age (Routledge Revivals)

Blake and the New Age (Routledge Revivals)

Kathleen Raine

Routledge
2011
sidottu
First published in 1979, this is a very welcome reissue of Kathleen Raine's seminal study of William Blake - England’s only prophet. He challenged with extraordinary vigour the premises which now underline much of Western civilization, hitting hard at the ideas of a naive materialist philosophy which, even in his own day, was already eating at the roots of English national life. In his insistence that ‘mental things are alone real’, Blake was ahead of his time. Materialist views are now challenged from various quarters; the depth psychologies of Freud and Jung, the study of Far Easter religion and philosophy, the reappraisal of myth and folk lore, the wealth of psychical research have all prepared the way for an understanding of Blake’s thought. We are ready to acknowledge that in attacking ‘the sickness of Albion’ Blake penetrated to the inner worlds of man and explored them in a way that is quite unique.Dr Raine, who has made a long study of Blake’s sources, presents him as a lonely powerful genius who stands within the spiritual tradition of Sophia Perennis, ‘the Everlasting Gospel’. From the standpoint of this great human Norm, our immediate past described by W.B. Yeats as ‘the three provincial centuries’, is a tragic deviation; catastrophic, as Blake believed, in its spiritual and material consequences. Only now do we possess the necessary knowledge to understand William Blake and the ever-growing number of people who turn to him surely justifies his faith in the eternal truths he strove to communicate.

Blake's Human Form Divine

Blake's Human Form Divine

Ann K. Mellor

University of California Press
2022
pokkari
In Blake’s Human Form Divine, the profound interplay between philosophy and stylistic principles in William Blake’s work comes to life. This study delves into Blake’s evolving perception of "form," focusing on its dual role as a philosophical concept and a defining feature of his visual-verbal art. Through detailed analysis, the book explores a central paradox in Blake’s creative journey: his simultaneous rejection of form as a constraining "Urizenic tyranny" and his reliance on bounded, outlined forms in his artwork. By 1795, Blake grappled with the dilemma of expressing divinity and imaginative freedom within the constraints of mortal, finite forms, a conflict central to both his artistic and philosophical pursuits. The study illuminates Blake’s struggle to reconcile these opposing forces, charting his journey through the interplay of visual style and poetic vision. Blake’s stylistic roots in the late eighteenth-century neoclassical idiom of romantic classicism provide the backdrop for this exploration. Characterized by clear outlines, linear rhythms, and idealized human forms, this style shaped Blake’s early illuminated works, such as Songs of Innocence, which reflect a harmonious, self-contained vision of human divinity. However, as his philosophical outlook shifted toward a critique of reason’s dominance in society, Blake began to question the aesthetic and philosophical implications of bounded form. This internal conflict between his artistic reliance on romantic classicism and his philosophical denunciation of reason’s constraints culminated in iconic works like The Ancient of Days. Through a nuanced analysis of Blake’s poetry and visual art, this book examines how he sought to transcend these tensions, offering fresh insights into the evolution of his radical imagination. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1974.
