Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate symbolic structure underpinning a collection of mystical writings, specifically focusing on the works of William Blake. The author meticulously dissects the poems, revealing a profound and multifaceted system of symbolism that draws upon a rich tapestry of mythological and biblical references. Emerging from the Romantic era, a period characterized by its emphasis on imagination and emotion, the book explores Blake's unique approach to spirituality and his exploration of the human condition. The author meticulously examines Blake's use of recurring symbols such as the Zoas (representing fundamental aspects of human existence) and the cardinal points, demonstrating how these elements intertwine to create a complex and cohesive mythological framework. Through detailed analysis of poems like "The Mental Traveller" and "Songs of Innocence and Experience," the book delves into themes of love and hate, reason and imagination, and the interplay between the material and spiritual realms. By deciphering Blake's symbolic language, the author unlocks a deeper understanding of the poet's philosophical and spiritual vision, shedding light on the profound insights he offers into the complexities of human existence and the eternal struggle between opposing forces within the human soul.
