Sobre este artículo
Weidenfeld and Nicolson, first paperback edition, 1992. Laminated illustrated wrappers, 8vo, 24 cm,. 263 pages, 21 plates, ills. From the blurb - "This is the first genuinely new account of Blake's life for more than 50 years. Unlike earlier biographers, James King stresses the close connection between the man and the mystical and symbolical worlds he created, and he gives equal emphasis to Blake the artist and the poet. Blake was a revolutionary with a unique vision which led him to create his own philosophy and mythology. He was a Christian who despised Christianity, a recluse who longed for fame, a man with deeply divided feelings about sexuality and aware of dark inner forces that threatened to conquer him, but against which he did battle. In James King's concise, critical biography these conflicts are fully discussed for the first time. King links the growth of Blake's imagination to the pictures and the poems in which he dramatised his inner struggles; he reveals the fullness of Blake's divided personality and brings him vividly to Iife. Near Very Good.
