Sobre este artículo
Clairvaux: The Trianon Press for The William Blake Trust, London,, 1970. First edition thus, number 516 of 600 copies so bound, from a total edition of 662 copies, all printed on Arches pure rag paper made to match the paper used by Blake. Blake scholar Geoffrey Keynes (1887-1982), the brother of John Maynard, provides a commentary and bibliographical history. He summarizes the gnomic intent of Blake's early tractate thus: "Blake identifies the Poetic Genius, that is God, with 'Divine Humanity'. Man is therefore uniform, yet with infinite variety in the individuals. All men, thus derived from a universal Poetic Genius, have but one religion, though each nation has its difference beliefs according to its needs". Quarto. Original green quarter morocco, spine lettered in gilt, marbled sides. With the original marbled slipcase. With 10 colour plates. Bookplate of Joseph Holland (with a design after Blake) to front pastedown. Spine sunned as often, and a little soiled, minor rubbing at slipcase extremities, contents clean and fresh. A very good copy.
