Bronowski was fascinated by William Blake for much of his life.
His first book about him, A Man Without a Mask," " was published in
1944. In 1958 his famous Penguin selection of Blake's poems and
letters was published. As further testimony to Bronowski's
enthusiasm it should be noted that the final plate in the book of
his great TV series "The Ascent of Man "is Blake's frontispiece to
Songs of Experience.""
""
William Blake and the Age of Revolution," " first published in
1965, " "is, in some ways, a revised edition of A Man Without a
Mask, in others, a new book. ""In it Bronowski gives a stimulating
interpretation of Blake's art and poetry in the context of the
revolutionary period in which he was working. Like all of
Bronowski's writings it dazzles with wide-ranging erudition, making
this work far removed from conventional literary criticism.
