A beautifully presented reissue of Blake's eternal classic
William Blake's (1757-1827) Songs of Innocence and of Experience Shewing the Two Contrary States of the Human Soul (1789/94) is an unrivalled masterpiece both in word and image - its seeming simplicity belying its visionary wisdom.
This unique edition allows Blake to communicate with his readers as he intended, reproducing his illumination and lettering from the finest existing example of the original work. Here readers can experience the mystery and beauty of Blake's poems as he first created them, discovering for themselves the intricate web of symbol and meaning that connects word and image. Each poem is accompanied by a transcription, and the volume is introduced by the renowned historian and critic, Richard Holmes. This beautiful new edition will be essential for those familiar with Blake's work, but also offers an ideal path into his visionary world for those encountering Blake for the first time.
