Omschrijving
In "The Complete Illuminated Books of William Blake," the reader is invited into a transcendent realm where poetry and visual art coalesce in a unique and revolutionary manner. Blake's work embodies the spirit of Romanticism, challenging the rigid confines of Neoclassical aesthetics by infusing his texts with mystical and visionary elements. Each illuminated page showcases his intricate engravings, which complement the veiled meanings embedded in his poetry. Organized thematically and chronologically, this collection includes his iconic works such as "Songs of Innocence and of Experience" and "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell," offering insights into the dualities of existence and the nature of the human soul amidst the tumult of societal change in late 18th-century England. William Blake was not only a poet but also a painter, printmaker, and engraver, whose life (1757-1827) was marked by a profound sense of spiritual and social rebellion. His dissociation from the mainstream art and literary circles of his time, coupled with his deep engagement with mysticism and biblical themes, profoundly influenced his creative process. Blake's vision was fueled by his belief in the transformative power of art and his quest to convey universal truths through his imaginative symbolism. This masterful collection is essential for any reader seeking to grasp the depth of Blake's artistic genius and philosophical inquiry. Whether you are a long-time admirer of Blake's work or encountering it for the first time, this unabridged edition, complete with original illustrations, serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the beauty and complexity of his legacy.
