Scholars of the Gothic have long recognised Blake's affinity with
the genre. Yet, to date, no major scholarly study focused on
Blake's intersection with the Gothic exists. William Blake's gothic
imagination seeks to redress this disconnect. The papers here do
not simply identify Blake's Gothic conventions but, thanks to
recent scholarship on affect, psychology, and embodiment in Gothic
studies, reach deeper into the tissue of anxieties that take
confused form through this notoriously nebulous historical,
aesthetic, and narrative mode. The collection opens with papers
touching on literary form, history, lineation, and narrative in
Blake's work, establishing contact with major topics in Gothic
studies. Then refines its focus to Blake's bloody, nervous bodies,
through which he explores various kinds of Gothic horror related to
reproduction, anatomy, sexuality, affect, and materiality. Rather
than transcendent images, this collection attends to Blake's 'dark
visions of torment'. -- .
