Sobre IBD

This study traces the links between William Blake’s ideas and radical Christian cultures in late eighteenth-century England. A detailed and historically-grounded study of a key literary figure, this book should appeal to Blake scholars and historians with an interest in the radical and religious culture of late eighteenth and early nineteenth century England. New research on Blake’s links to, and reaction against, the Swedenborg New Church make this study a valuable addition to scholarship in this area.
