Madness and Blake's Myth
ISBN: 9780271026756 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book offers the first systematic study of madness and its significance for the poetry of William Blake. Blake's reputation as an artist was long clouded by suspicions of madness. Although the great victory of his modern critics has been to see his work clearly, unobstructed by this prejudice, criticism now runs the risk of vindicating Blake the poet at the expense of understanding certain elements of his poetry.

Eighteenth-century medicine used the word "monstrosities" to describe physically deformed bodies--those irreducible to the "proper body" in their singular, sometimes startling difference. Considering British society in confrontation with such monstrosities, Paul Youngquist reveals the cultural politics of embodiment in Britain during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

As the first complete narrative in English of the Haitian Revolution, Marcus Rainsford's "An Historical Account of the Black Empire of Hayti" was highly influential in establishing nineteenth-century world opinion of this momentous event.
