Blake: Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets Series) Hardcover – October 18, 1994

Not since Augustine, Constantine, or Aquinnas, and not since his time, has anyone Orthodox, but revelatory, so gotten at the heart of Christian ethics with a diction and accompanying, extrapolating additional theological pantheon, setting the record straight on the true nature of the centrality of creation and the Fall of Satan, then mankind -- this postlapsarian world of ours of sin and death -- as has William Blake near and more than two centuries ago. He is popular again today because of minority assuagement of our religious oligarchy, as one is apt to see it, and popular also, having been a prolific and demandingly critical artist and engraver, as being recognized as the progenitor of the graphic novel (verse epic, that is). Last, speaking of his language and imagination, editorial authorities stand him alongside everyone from Dante to Shakespeare and on. To put it in layman's terms, he has a bombastically colorful, creative style that is an engrossing headtrip... Tom Lee...

Love the everyman's series, it's like buying a best of CD, you get the writers best known poems, as well as some other gems. From there you can decide if you want a collected works volume. Each book is well printed, nice thick paper, and bookmark string sewn in. The covers are nice, and if the dust jacket is missing, the actual cover is embossed with title and artwork too.

Simple translations of Blake's most well known poems.

Great collection of poetry by Blake. Never disappointed with the Everyman's Library collections.

Love the format for this classic collection - great price and very prompt delivery. Thanks

Amazing collection of all of Blake’s works

These seemed picked for their inoffensive, flowery Christian content. Great if you like the narrow scope, I do not.

Lovely book

Blake's poetry speaks for itself and, coupled with how Everyman executes their "pocket" series it can't be beat.

Ho ricevuto il libro ben impacchettato ,nei tempi indicati ed ho apprezzato il libro stesso.Certamente lo raccomandero' ad i miei amici e parenti.

I have rarely been happier to look at the book, touch it and read!

A good election of Blake's poems and also include the Auguries which are not often anthologised. These are attractive little books which would slip into a pocket or handbag. the price is good too. highly recommended.

Blake's great collection. Well binded.Great paper quality.
