William Blake (28 November 1757 - 12 August 1827) was an English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his life, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual art of the Romantic Age. What he called his prophetic works were said by 20th-century critic Northrop Frye to form "what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language".[2] His visual artistry led 21st-century critic Jonathan Jones to proclaim him "far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced".[3] In 2002, Blake was placed at number 38 in the BBC's poll of the 100 Greatest Britons.[4] While he lived in London his entire life, except for three years spent in Felpham,[5] he produced a diverse and symbolically rich collection of works, which embraced the imagination as "the body of God"[6] or "human existence itself".[7]
William Blake.
S.l. Chêne / Coll. 15/21, (1975). Un vol. au format pt in-8 (212 x 153 mm) de 215 pp., broché, sous couverture à rabats rempliés.
L'ouvrage s'agrémente de nombreuses reproductions d'oeuvres de l'artiste. ''L'auteur pense que le génie de William Blake n'est pas sans rapport avec ceux des prophètes de l'Ancien Testament qu'il admirait tant. Dans cette étude de la vie, de la pensée et de l'art de Blake, elle explique comment, pour lui, les oeuvres d'art n'étaient pas une fin en elles mais exprimaient sa vision du drame spirituel de la nation anglaise dans les développements de son histoire contemporaine. Blake pensait que les événements découlent des idéologies, que les ''sinistres fabriques de Satan'' du paysage industriel sont construites à l'image de la philosophie matérialiste qui les a fait naître.'' Très belle condition.
