2022 Reprint of the 1926 Edition. Two volumes found in One. Exact facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. With a general introduction, glossary and index of symbols, commentary, and appendices by D.J. Sloss and J.P.R. Wallis. Poet, painter, engraver, and visionary William Blake worked to bring about a change both in the social order and in the minds of men. Though in his lifetime his work was largely neglected or dismissed, he is now considered one of the leading lights of English poetry, and his work has only grown in popularity. In addition to being considered one of the most visionary of English poets and one of the great progenitors of English Romanticism, his visual artwork is highly regarded around the world. The prophetic books of the 18th-century English poet and artist William Blake are a series of lengthy, interrelated poetic works drawing upon Blake's own personal mythology. In these works, concluding with the epic Jerusalem, he elaborated a personal invented mythology (mythopoeia). The mythopoeia is largely Biblical in inspiration and its significance has been debated extensively for both its political and religious content. Contents: 1. There is no natural religion -- All religions are one -- The marriage of heaven and hell -- Visions of the daughters of Albion -- A song of liberty -- America -- Europe -- The book of Urizen -- The book of Los -- Ahania -- The song of Los -- The four Zoas -- Milton -- Jerusalem -- On Homer's poetry -- On Virgil -- Laocoön -- The ghost of Able -- v. 2.
