كتاب Anthology of English Poetry PDF انطونيوس بطرس : 1757م - 1443هـ Anthology of English Poetry Blake's father was a London haberdasher. His only formal education was in art: at the age often he entered a drawing school and later studied for a time at the school of the Royal Academy of Arts. At the age of fourteen he was apprenticed to a well-known engraver, James Basire, from whom he learned the technique of illuminated printing - a technique he further developed and used in his major works to emphasize the mythical quality of his writing. His earliest poems are contained in Poetical Sketches published in 1783. In 1789 he engraved and published his Songs oflnnocence^ in which he first showed the mystical cast of his mind. In 1790 he engraved his prose work, The Ma/mage of Heaven and Hell. His other major work, the Songs of Experience (1794) is in contrast with the Songs oflnnocence. The brightness of the earlier work gives place to a sense of gloom and mystery, and the power of evil. At the time of his death Blake was litde known as an artist and almost entirely unknown as a poet. Blake's poems express ideas and feelings which are the result of an intense probing into the source of his own being and character. He uses symbols, startling forms and methods. Apart from his lyrics he wrote a number of prophetic books which are concerned which the spiritual and political history of man. His poems are vividly illuminating, and his symbols provide an expression of wisdom and spiritual health. .
