William Blake's Visionary London: 'a Human awful wonder of God!'

Description

Blake is London's revolutionary prophet. He spent almost all of his life in the city, which was both the inspiration for his visionary poetry and artworks and a recurrent subject in them. Blake's way of seeing London was uniquely imaginative, visionary, and transformative: his works communicate his sense that the streets of London open out into Eternity. This talk by Dr David Fallon will trace Blake's life as it intertwined with the dramatic historical events the city witnessed during his lifetime and explore the different ways he represented the mighty city in all its horror and grandeur.
