What was William Blake's relation with London? And how did this relation shape his poetic visions? In this small and specially-designed volume, Iain Sinclair takes the reader on a discursive journey through BLAKE'S LONDON showing how, in Blake's vast and rich poetry, language and imagination conjoin to delineate a profound engagement with place.
First delivered as a lecture at Swedenborg Hall on Friday 2nd Nov, 2007, this revised text is the perfect introduction to Blake's singular experience of the city, his relation to Swedenborg, and to a visionary tradition of poets from John Clare to Allen Ginsberg.
