Omschrijving
For any scholar interested in a comparative approach to Blake or in following in his cosmopolitan footsteps, this is an invaluable collection. It is a welcome addition to Blake scholarship and reception studies more broadly.
For any scholar interested in a comparative approach to Blake or in following in his cosmopolitan footsteps, this is an invaluable collection. It is a welcome addition to Blake scholarship and reception studies more broadly.
The Reception of William Blake in Europe performs an important task in expanding Blake’s afterlife to better encompass its true reach and complexity, and in doing so, opens foundations for new research that will surely be built upon in many years to come.
The contributors to the two volumes must be complimented on the remarkable breadth and depth of their scholarship in outlining the distinctive tendencies in the reception history of [Blake's] work in their respective countries.
It should be apparent that the Reception of William Blake in Europe is a monumental work of scholarship, and will be a vital reference book not only for Blake scholars but also for comparatists working in many fields of European literature.
Sibylle Erle, FSRA, is Reader in English Literature at Bishop Grosseteste University, Lincoln, UK. She is the author of Blake, Lavater and Physiognomy (2010) and chapters and articles on Blake and Fuseli, Lavater, Tennyson and Ludwig Meidner and co-curator of the 2010-11 Tate Britain display Blake and Physiognomy. Morton D. Paley is Emeritus Professor at the University of California, Berkeley, USA. He is editor of the Blake Trust edition of 'Jerusalem' and the author of numerous studies in Romantic literature and art, including Samuel Taylor Coleridge and the Fine Arts (2008) and The Traveller in the Evening: The Last Works of William Blake (2003). He is co-editor of Blake: An Illustrated Quarterly.
