Product Description

This book demonstrates the way in which William Blake aligned his idiosyncratic concept of the Selfhood the lens through which the despiritualised subject beholds the material world with the atomistic materialism of the Epicurean school as it was transmitted through the first-century BC Roman poet and philosopher Lucretius De Rerum Natura. By addressing this philosophical debt, this study sets out a threefold re-evaluation of Blakes work: to clarify the classical stream of Blakes philosophical heritage through Lucretius; to return Blake to his historical moment, a thirty-year period from 1790 to 1820 which has been described as the second Lucretian moment in England; and to employ a new exegetical model for understanding the phenomenological parameters and epistemological frameworks of Blakes mythopoeia. Accordingly, it is revealed that Blake was not only aware of classical atomistic cosmogony and sense-based epistemology but that he systematically mapped postlapsarian existence onto an Epicurean framework.
