He was born in London in 1757.From early childhood, Blake spoke of having visions—at four he saw God “put his head to the window”; around age nine, while walking through the countryside, he saw a tree filled with angels.At age ten, Blake expressed a wish to become a painter, so his parents sent him to drawing school. Two years later, Blake began writing poetry. When he turned fourteen, he apprenticed with an engraver because art school proved too costly.In  1782 he prints the illuminated poetry for which he is remembered today. Blake made a meager living as an engraver and illustrator for books and magazines]]> 2017-05-05 16:25:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170221256 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170222076 Blake considered imagination, and not sense perception as the means through which man could know the world.Imagination means to see more,beyond material reality into the life things]]> 2017-05-05 16:28:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170222076 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170225493 Blake saw his brother’s spirit rise up through the ceiling, “clapping its hands for joy.” He believed that Robert’s spirit continued to visit him and later claimed that in a dream Robert taught him the printing method that he used in Songs of Innocence and other “illuminated” works.]]> 2017-05-05 16:43:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170225493 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170225919 2017-05-05 16:45:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170225919 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170227066 2017-05-05 16:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170227066 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170229483
  The poems protest against war, tyranny, and King George III’s treatment of the American colonies. He published his most popular collection, Songs of Innocence, in 1789 and followed it, in 1794, with Songs of Experience. Some readers interpret Songs of Innocence like a symbol of lack of knowledge that a child has (childhood), but others have found hints at parody or critique in its seemingly naive and simple lyrics. Songs of Experience instead symbolizes the adulthood which is the adults’ corruption caused by their knowledge]]> 2017-05-05 17:00:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170229483 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170231574 The most famous prophetic book was The Marriage of Heaven and Hell(1790) that is a mixture of proverbs,anecdotes and aphorisms in which Hell and Satan represent liberty and energy while Heaven is the place of lawgiving]]> 2017-05-05 17:07:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170231574 sasy_napoletano_doc https://padlet.com/sasy_napoletano_doc/blakeordrake/wish/170232321 •He stated:”Without Contraries there is no Progression.
