He attempts to lead the readers through the process of psychological growth, touching upon the themes of Christianity. The text is supplemented with miniature illustrations of babies lying dormant, wrapped, and buried while an older man enters the dark behind death's door. The man may discover that the door will lead him back into earth, from where he will be born as a child again. This unique work was written during the period of spiritual visions that made up a considerable part of Blake's life and work. He asks the readers use their intuition to retrieve from their unconscious, the meaning to associate with the illustrations provided. This creatively crafted work on the different stages of life proves insightful for young readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Blake, poet and artist, is a figure often understood to have 'created his own system'. Combining close readings and detailed analysis of a range of Blake's work, from lyrical songs to later myth, from writing to visual art, this collection of thirty-eight lively and authoritative essays examines what Blake had in common with his contemporaries, the writers who influenced him, and those he influenced in turn. Chapters from an international team of leading scholars also attend to his wider contexts: material, formal, cultural, and historical, to enrich our understanding of, and engagement with, Blake's work. Accessibly written, incisive, and informed by original research, William Blake in Context enables readers to appreciate Blake anew, from both within and outside of his own idiom.
