Description
William Blake was an English poet and artist who is considered a visionary anarchist. He believed that the only way to achieve true freedom was through the abolition of society and the establishment of a utopian society based on love and harmony.
This short study draws on Blake's complete writings, his poetry and his prose. It offers a lively and perceptive account of his thought, ranging from his philosophy, his critique of existing society and culture, to his vision of a free world. Marshall presents Blake as a forerunner of modern anarchism and social ecology, and reveals the light which shines behind the misty mountain range (ahem) of his symbolism and mythology.
