Blake's 'Human Form Divine' has long commanded the spotlight.
Beastly Blake shifts focus to the non-human creatures who populate
Blake's poetry and designs. The author of 'The Tyger' and 'The
Lamb' was equally struck by the 'beastliness' and the beauty of the
animal kingdom, the utter otherness of animal subjectivity and the
meaningful relationships between humans and other creatures.
'Conversing with the Animal forms of wisdom night & day', Blake
fathomed how much they have to teach us about creation and
eternity. This collection ranges from real animals in Blake's
surroundings, to symbolic creatures in his mythology, to animal
presences in his illustrations of Virgil, Dante, Hayley, and
Stedman. It makes a third to follow Queer Blake and Sexy Blake in
irreverently illuminating blind spots in Blake criticism. Beastly
Blake will reward lovers of Blake's writing and visual art, as well
as those interested in Romanticism and animal studies.
