Mitchell maintains that Blake’s illuminated poems are an exception to Suzanne Langer’s claim that “there are no happy marriages in art—only successful rape.” Drawing on over one hundred reproductions of Blake’s pictures, this book shows that neither the graphic nor the poetic aspect of his composite art consistently predominates: their relationship is more like an energetic rivalry, a dialogue between vigorously independent modes of expression.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
