Sobre este artículo
LONDON: WILDWOOD HOUSE, 1973 WONERFUL BOOK FOR THE ART LOVER AND LOVER OF HISTORY. THE GRAVE WAS WRITTEN BY ROBERT BLAIR IN 1808 AND REFLECTS ON LIFE AND DEATH. BLAKES ARTWORK IS TERRIFIC. LARGE FOLIO SIZE BOOK, LIGHT COVER WITH ARTWORK FRONT. FIRST TWO PAGES LOOSE BUT VERY GOOD SHAPE, ARTWORK AND POEM PRESENTED VERY NICELY. A PRIZE POSSESSION. Rev Robert Blair (17 April 1699 – 4 February 1746) was a Scottish poet. His fame rests upon his poem The Grave, which in a later printing was illustrated by William Blake. "The Grave" is a blank verse poem by the Scottish poet Robert Blair. It is the work for which he is primarily renowned. According to Blair, in a letter he wrote to Philip Doddridge, the greater part of the poem was composed before he became a minister. Edinburgh editor and publisher John Johnstone stated that it was composed whilst Blair was still a student, although "probably corrected and amplified by his more matured judgement."The poem, 767 lines long, is an exemplar of what became known as the school of graveyard poetry. 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".
