This book provides compelling new readings of William Blake's
poetry and art, including the first sustained account of his
visionary paintings of Pitt and Nelson. It focuses on the recurrent
motif of apotheosis, both as a figure of political authority to be
demystified but also as an image of utopian possibility. It
reevaluates Blake's relationship to Enlightenment thought, myth,
religion, and politics, from The French Revolution to Jerusalem and
The Laocooen. The book combines careful attention to cultural and
historical contexts with close readings of the texts and designs,
providing an innovative account of Blake's creative transformations
of Enlightenment, classical, and Christian thought.
