Abstract

Als Hauptvertreter der romantischen Bewegung war der britische Künstler William Blake (1757-1827) gleichzeitig Dichter, Maler, Designer und Graphiker. Er illustrierte seine literarischen Werke selbst, und seine Texte entwickelten sich in Anlehnung an seine Stiche und fantastischen Zeichnungen zu wahrhaft strahlenden Manuskripten. Inspiriert von biblischen und prophetischen Themen (Proverbs of Hell, The Everlasting Gospel und The Gates of Paradise), kombiniert Blakes Kunst auf subtile Weise die Modernität seiner Epoche und der romantischen Revolution mit dem Klassizismus der von ihm untersuchte

Abstract

Figure majeure du mouvement romantique, le britannique William Blake (1757-1827) fut à la fois peintre, dessinateur, graveur et poète. L'artiste s'attachant à illustrer lui-même son OEuvre littéraire, les textes de Blake se développent suivant les lignes de ses gravures et dessins hallucinés, et deviennent, dès lors, de véritables enluminures. Inspiré des thèmes bibliques et prophétiques (Proverbes de l'Enfer, L'Évangile éternel, Les Portes du Paradis, etc.), l'art de Blake mélange subtilement la modernité de son époque et de la révolution romantique avec le classicisme des thèmes qu'il explor

Abstract

Following in the footsteps of Bentley's pioneering scholarship, this collection, richly illustrated, demonstrates that the locus of Blake's work lies in the elements that are historically particular to his place and time. Topics include the impact of the town of Chichester on Blake's imagination, the material processes of Blake's painting, the detection of a Blake forgery, and new biographical materials, using archives and online resources, on Blake's contemporaries, patrons, peers, and friends. Essays on the importance of Blake collections world-wide, on variant printings, and on the heirs of Blake in British painting extend the focus of this remarkable investigation to include chalcography and book history."--Pub. desc "Blake in Our Time explores the work of British poet and artist William Blake in the context of the material culture of his era. In the 1960s, University of Toronto scholar G.E. Bentley, Jr almost singlehandedly shifted the focus of Blake criticism from formalism and symbolism to the materiality that contextualizes Blake's work.

The Reader's Guide begins by introducing Blake's major themes including religious, political and social issues and then moves on to reading key works, including Songs of Innocence and Experience and The Marriage of Heaven and Hell. It offers  an invaluable introduction to reading Blake's poetry and includes sections on its contexts, language and style, critical reception and adaptation and influence and finally an annotated guide to further reading.

Abstract

In all of his works Blake struggled with the question of how chaos can be assimilated into imaginative order. Blake's own answer changed in the course of his poetic career. Christine Gallant contends that during the ten year period of composition of Blake's first comprehensive epic, The Four Zoas, Blake's myth expanded from a closed, static system to an open, dynamic process. She further argues that it is only through attention to the changing pattern of Jungian archetypes in the poem that one can discern this profound change. Using the depth psychology of Jung, Professor Gallant presents a comprehensive interpretation of Blake's poetry from his early "Lambeth" prophecies to his mature works, The Four Zoas, Milton, and Jerusalem. She offers a Jungian critical approach that respects the work's autonomy, but still suggests how literature is an ongoing imaginative experience in which archetypal symbols affect their literary contexts. What interests the author is the function that the very process of mythmaking had for Blake. Professor Gallant finds that the metaphysical opposition between God and Satan in Blake's earlier work gradually evolves into an interplay of these powers in the later works. The quality of Chaos changes for Blake from something unknown and feared, contrary to Order, to something intimately known and embraced.Originally published in 1979.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
