BIOGRAPHY - William Blake, (1757-1827)
OVERVIEW - BIOGRAPHY - William Blake, (1757-1827) - British poet, painter, visionary mystic, and engraver, who illustrated and printed his own books. Blake proclaimed the supremacy of the imagination over the rationalism and materialism of the 18th- century. BLAKE, WILLIAM (1757ó1827), English poet and painter, was born in London, on the 28th of November 1757. His father, James Blake, kept a hosierís shop in Broad Street, Golden Square; Ind from the scanty education which the young artist received, it may be judged that the circumstances of the family were not very prosperous. For the facts of William Blakeís early life the world is indebted to a little book, called A Fatherís Iviemoirs on a Child,í written by Dr Malkin in 1806. Here we learn that young Blake quickly developed a taste for design, which his father appears to have had sufficient intelligence to recognize and assist by every means in his power.
At the age of ten the boy was sent to a drawing school kept by Henry Pars in the Strand, and at the same time he was already cultivating his own taste by constant attendance at the different

VIEW IMAGE LIST "William Blake was a poet, illustrator, engraver, draughtsman, writer and painter whose efforts, due to their idiosyncratic and unorthodox nature, were largely unappreciated in his own lifetime. The knowledge Blake gained from working as an engraver enabled him to produce his own work in which he surrounded one of his poems with his own hand-coloured illustration. A powerful imagination is evident in every aspect of Blake's work. Among his most important works are the Illustrations of the Book of Job (1825), and the hundred or so watercolours to Dante's Divine Comedy ...A deeply mystical man, Blake claimed he had visionary experiences that prompted him to invent his own belief system in which the creator of the universe, whom he renamed Urizen , wrought vengeance on mankind through Jesus, renamed Orc. His social and political conscience railed against the prevailing academic painting of the eighteenth century. He saw it as representing all that he came to despise about the rational, materialistic age in which he found himself."

To the Muses William Blake, a visionary English poet and painter who was a precursor of English Romanticism, combined the vocations of engraver, painter, and poet. He was born on Nov. 28, 1757, the son of a London hosier. Blake spent all of his relatively quiet life in London except for a stay at Felpham, on the southern coast of England, from 1800 to 1803. Largely self-taught, Blake was, however, widely read, and his poetry shows the influence of the German mystic Jakob Boehme, for example, and of Swedenborgianism. As a child, Blake wanted to become a painter. He was sent to drawing school at age 10 and at the age of 14 was apprenticed to James Basire, an engraver. From sketching frequently at Westminster Abbey, he developed an interest in the Gothic style, which he combined with a taste for the art of Raphael, Michelangelo , and Durer. He exhibited his first artwork in 1780, married Catherine Boucher in 1782, and published his first poems

William and Catherine moved to Lambeth in 1790 as he saw Lambeth as 'the place of the Lamb' and a site for a new Jerusalem. They lived in a large house which was on the site of present day 23 Hercules Road. His new home housed a rolling press and painting studio.

"Blake, William" English poet and artist A Poison Tree I was angry with my friend : I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe : I told it not, my wrath did grow. And I watered it in fears, Night and morning with my tears; With soft, deceitful wiles. And it grew both day and night, Till it bore an apple bright; And my foe beheld it shine, And he knew that it was mine, And into my garden stole When the night had veiled the pole: In the morning glad I see My foe outstretched beneath the tree. - William Blake - Blake, William (1757-1827), English poet, painter, and engraver, who created a unique form of illustrated verse; his poetry, inspired by mystical vision, is among the most original lyric and prophetic in the language. Blake was born November 28, 1757, in London, where he lived most of his life. William Blake infused his poetry with mysticism and complex symbolism. He explored issues of divine love in the collection Songs of Innocence (1789), while he considered the nature of evil in Songs of Experience (1794). Blake also juxtaposed poems from the first collection with corresponding poems from the second. For example, "The Lamb" from the first collection provides a gentle counterpart to "The Tyger" (excerpt recited by an actor), from the second. In his so-called Prophetic Books, a series of longer poems written from 1789 on, Blake created a complex personal mythology and invented his own symbolic characters to reflect his social concerns. A true original in thought and expression, he declared in one of these poems
