Poems & Prophecies

📕 A comprehensive selection of the poet’s work, including all the great lyrics and the more important prophetic books. In her introduction the distinguished poet and critic Kathleen Raine expounds Blake’s esoteric theory and shows how it helped to create a poetry which is unlike any other. Angry, passionate, radiant, realistic and mystical by turns, illuminating a vision of the whole cosmos, these pages of verse retain all their power to move and excite. The text of this edition was corrected according to the versions established by Geoffrey Keynes.
