Illus. 2 "??", from "William Blake's Original Sketch Book" reproduced in the catalogue of Stan V. Henkels, 21 November 1921, Lot 15. The sketch book "is probably the most important Blake item offered for sale in this country", with 50 original sketches by William Blake, together with "quite a number" by George Richmond; "all of Blake's sketches have that weird, mystical technique, which has never been even imitated by anybody since his death"; "the most skeptical would hesitate to pass an adverse opinion of them". The reproductions do not look at all like Blake, but they do look like George Richmond's work. Illus. 3 Letter from "W.B." of 24 April [1811] to John [Thomas] Smith, attributed confidently to "William Blake" by the auctioneer (American Art Association, 13-14 March 1928, Lot 27); I am confident that it is not by the poet and suggest instead William Beckford. Illus. 4 W.B., "Directions for Landscape Painting", last page, Anderson Galleries, Sale Number 2256 (3 April 1928), Lot 13. The handwriting and context are quite unlike those of the poet. 4 Sale Catalogues of Blake's Works \ÇàÜÉwâvà|ÉÇ Since 1951 I have been accumulating information about William Blake. Some of the information comes from sources which are ephemeral, such as sale catalogues, or difficult of access, such as archives in Canberra or Stoke-on-Trent. The information in this list derives chiefly from (1) my own records of thousands of catalogues (2) G.E. Bentley, Jr, Blake Books (1977) (3) Martin Butlin, The Paintings and Drawings of William Blake (1981) (4) Robert N. Essick, The Separate Plates of William Blake: A Catalogue (1983) (5) G.E. Bentley, Jr, Blake Book Supplement (1995) (6) G.E. Bentley, Jr, "William Blake and His Circle", Blake: An Illustrated Quarterly (1995 ff.). (7) G.E. Bentley, Jr, Blake Records, Second Edition (2004) The list excludes incidental advertisements, announcements,1 bibliographies, exhibitions,2 most Prospectuses for books with Blake’s commercial engravings,3 sale catalogues published after Blake's death listing books with his commercial engravings except for remarkable copies,4 and reviews (which often have prices). I have not recorded sales of the Butts-Blake print of "Christ Trampling on Satan" because all known copies were printed 1903 ff by Edward J. Shaw, the firm of E. Weyhe, and perhaps others. I also ignore engravings by William Staden Blake of 'Change Alley and "Windsor Castle" (I.B.-G. Maile), the companion to Blake's "Mrs Q", which was often hopefully attributed to Blake. 1 Such as the 15 announcements traced for Flaxman’s Hesiod engraved by Blake. 2 Such as those at the Royal Academy. 3 Such as that [1781] for Kimpton's History of the Holy Bible. 4 Such as coloured copies of Young's Night Thoughts (1797) and Blair’s Grave (1808). 5 Sale Catalogues of Blake's Works When a leaf has drawings on both sides, only the one on the recto is identified. Note that the "British Library" was before about 1980 known as the "British Museum Library" or usually "British Museum". The locations given for these sometimes very ephemeral catalogues represent only copies I have examined. The authority for the prices and buyers recorded here is not always clear. The Sotheby catalogues in the British Library, the Christie catalogues in Christie's, and the Quaritch catalogues in Quaritch's are generally the master copies and reliable, but the others may not be as worthy of trust. 6 Sale Catalogues of Blake's Works Abbreviations and Symbols ALS = Autograph Letter Signed BB = G.E.

  • William Blake's “The Little Vagabond” and Organized Religion
    International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences, 5(2) Mar-Apr 2020 |Available online: https://ijels.com/ William Blake’s “The Little Vagabond” and Organized Religion Sun Shuting English Department, North China Electric Power University, China Abstract—This article is an analysis of William Blake’s poem “The Little Vagabond” from the angle of Blake’s views on organized religion. The article identifies three main themes of the poem; happiness, the sacred and the profane and assesses the tension between them. The article assesses the tension between these three in the poem to show Blake’s criticism of organized religion, later developed in his prophetic books. The little vagabond unwittingly identifies a dichotomy of organized religion in its inability to combine happiness with the sacred. Its strictures against happiness make happiness profane. As happiness is exiled to only keep company with the profane, the boy innocently suggests making the sacred the profane. Blake develops these ideas in molding his character of Urizon, the cold lawgiver, father of stern and somber organized religion. Keywords— Christianity, organized religion, Songs of Innocence and Experience, The Little Vagabond, William Blake. I. INTRODUCTION of the poems also hint at the vulnerability of Innocence and “The Little Vagabond” is a William Blake poem of 1794. It the dangerous encroachment of the world of Experience on appears in his Songs of Innocence and Experience, a its simple joys. These poems are usually accompanied by compendium of two poetry anthologies. This book illustrations of bucolic harmony. Experience corresponds appeared in two phases. At first Songs of Innocence to the Fallen world of division and hostility, which arises in appeared in 1789 on its own with Blake illuminating and the rule-governed, cold world of scientific objectivity.

  • Blake's Critique of Enlightenment Reason in the Four Zoas
    Colby Quarterly Volume 19 Issue 4 December Article 3 December 1983 Blake's Critique of Enlightenment Reason in The Four Zoas Michael Ackland Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.colby.edu/cq Recommended Citation Colby Library Quarterly, Volume 19, no.4, December 1983, p.173-189 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by Digital Commons @ Colby. It has been accepted for inclusion in Colby Quarterly by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ Colby. Ackland: Blake's Critique of Enlightenment Reason in The Four Zoas Blake's Critique of Enlightenment Reason in The Four Zoas by MICHAEL ACKLAND RIZEN is at once one of Blake's most easily recognizable characters U and one of his most elusive. Pictured often as a grey, stern, hover­ ing eminence, his wide-outspread arms suggest oppression, stultifica­ tion, and limitation. He is the cruel, jealous patriarch of this world, the Nobodaddy-boogey man-god evoked to quieten the child, to still the rabble, to repress the questing intellect. At other times in Blake's evolv­ ing mythology he is an inferior demiurge, responsible for this botched and fallen creation. In political terms, he can project the repressive, warmongering spirit of Pitt's England, or the collective forces of social tyranny. More fundamentally, he is a personal attribute: nobody's daddy because everyone creates him. As one possible derivation of his name suggests, he is "your horizon," or those impulses in each of us which, through their falsely assumed authority, limit all man's other capabilities. Yet Urizen can, at times, earn our grudging admiration.

He reminds us of Urizen who is later on Blake's principal symbol of cold , worldly rationalism in his myths. 2 Tiriel Tiriel also reminds us of King Lea r. Both Tiriel and Lear are turned out by their children and wander wild in nature where they can not sleep nor rest because of madness and dismay ,and they call upon the thunder to destroy their children children in their outrage. Tiriel also , just lik 巴 King Lear , calls his offspring “ serpents". Blake had read Shakespeare's works in his youth. So we should say say that Tiriel has some echoes from King Lear. 3 Tiriel Tiriel destroys his sons and daughters except Hela to guide him back to the the vales of Har ,wh 巴re he had beed before. 1t is very natural ,1 think , that Hela represents the sense of Sight rather than the sense of Touch or Sex , because Tiriel is blind.
