William Blake was an English bard and visual artist of Romanticism who had no fame and recognition at the time of his life, but today he is considered one of the most important and significant poets and artists of this aesthetic movement.
While he was alive, Blake was even called ‘eccentric’ and ‘crazy’ by some of his critics, because in no case his creativity and views could be called ‘normal’ or mediocre. Later, however, over the years, literary and artistic criticism increasingly began to appreciate the philosophical views and depths of the artist’s thinking and described him as ‘a forerunner of Romanticism.’
William Blake lived in London, and throughout his life as a poet and artist, he was interested in the meaning of human existence by calling the ‘Body of God’ the Imagination and considered it the Supreme Sense.
Disgusted by the narrow and dogmatic interpretation of the Bible, the poet-artist was fascinated by the ideals of the French Revolution and later by the American Revolution.
