Blake, William, 1757-1827, Bronowski, J.,(Jacob) 1908-1974, editor
William Blake. A Selection of Poems and Letters. Edited with an Introduction
Publisher: Penguin Books ['First published 1958'].. 251 p., index; Copy of Albert Cook, poet, critic, translator, with his pencil notes. Based on the Keynes editions. 'In making this choice of Blake's work, I have wanted to present him as he was, a single person who did different things and did everything in his own way. ...Blake was a poet who wrote in two manners, and did so by design; and to ignore the more difficult manner... would be an insult to him and a caricature of his work. The poet must be seen whole... The one set of Blake's annotations and the few letters which I have put at the end... are intended to give the reader at first hand something of the character of the man and the circumstances in which he worked...' Stock #29,755. paper covers soiled, else good. English literature, poetry, verse.

Keynes, Geoffrey. [Blake, William, 1757-1827]
Bibliography of William Blake.
Publisher: New York, The Grolier Club, 1921; reprint Martino 2001. Besterman 876. The first substantial work on this artist describes 775 works including original publications, illustrations, sale catalogs and reproductions. Now regarded as one of the earliest and greatest figures of Romanticism, Blake was ignored by the public of his day and deemed mad for his single-minded unworldliness; he lived on the edge of poverty and died in neglect. Poet, painter, engraver and visionary mystic, his hand-illustrated series of lyrical and epic poems created one of the most strikingly original and independent bodies of work in the Western cultural tradition.
