Paperback. Condition: Fine. First Edition. WILLIAM BLAKE Martin Butler. The Tate Gallery, London 1978 First Edition ISBN 0905005112 164pp Illustrated Paperback This copy is in FINE condition in illustrated card covers as issued. William Blake (28 November 1757 - 12 August 1827) was an English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of both the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age. His prophetic poetry has been said to form "what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language". His visual artistry has led one contemporary art critic to proclaim him "far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced" Although he lived in London his entire life except for three years spent in Felpham he produced a diverse and symbolically rich corpus, which embraced the imagination as "the body of God", or "Human existence itself". Considered mad by contemporaries for his idiosyncratic views, Blake is held in high regard by later critics for his expressiveness and creativity, and for the philosophical and mystical undercurrents within his work. His paintings and poetry have been characterised as part of both the Romantic movement and "Pre-Romantic", for its large appearance in the 18th century. Reverent of the Bible but hostile to the Church of England - indeed, to all forms of organised religion - Blake was influenced by the ideals and ambitions of the French and American revolutions, as well as by such thinkers as Jakob Böhme and Emanuel Swedenborg. Despite these known influences, the singularity of Blake's work makes him difficult to classify. The 19th century scholar William Rossetti characterised Blake as a "glorious luminary," and as "a man not forestalled by predecessors, nor to be classed with contemporaries, nor to be replaced by known or readily surmisable successors".

William Blake was an English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age.

While Blake had a significant role to play in the art and poetry of figures such as Rossetti, it was during the Modernist period that this work began to influence a wider set of writers and artists. William Butler Yeats, who edited an edition of Blake's collected works in 1893, drew on him for poetic and philosophical ideas, while British surrealist art in particular drew on Blake's conceptions of non-mimetic, visionary practice in the painting of artists such as Paul Nash and Graham Sutherland. His poetry came into use by a number of British classical composers such as Benjamin Britten and Ralph Vaughan Williams, who set his works. Blake's thoughts on human nature greatly anticipate and parallel the thinking of the psychoanalyst Carl Jung. In Jung's own words: "Blake a tantalizing study, since he compiled a lot of half or undigested knowledge in his fantasies. According to my ideas they are an artistic production rather than an authentic representation of unconscious processes." Similarly, although less popularly, Diana Hume George claimed that Blake can be seen as a precursor to the ideas of Sigmund Freud. Buch.

She's too busy scrubbing floors in her wealthy grandfather's house to do anything more than dream of a life far from her dusty, small town in southern Mexico. A life she could call her own. This dream is impossible, distant as the stars - until the day Casiopea opens a curious chest in her grandfather's room and accidentally frees an ancient Mayan god of death. He offers her a deal: if Casiopea helps him recover his throne from his treacherous brother, he will grant her whatever she desires. Success will make her every dream come true, but failure will see her lost, for ever.

Designed in a far future where the twin grandsons of Satan-Danad and Nadan-have retroactively rewritten the Holy Bible and therefore the course of human history in its wake, the precarious distinction between mass entertainment and mind control has gone so wonky even the zits who think they run the show can't trace what's what.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. For generations, poets have turned to the Bible for insight and inspiration. What did so many creative minds find in scripture? Is the Bible still a vital source of poetic inspirations? Chapters Into Verse is the first comprehensive collection ever made of poems written in English inspired by the Bible. A groundbreaking anthology, it introduces readers to a distinct heritage of English poetry: the scriptural tradition. Though frequentlyignored and sometimes suppressed, this tradition rivals the classical and is every bit as venerable. Drawing a unique map of the history of English poetry, the two volumes of Chapters Into Versesurvey and define the literary legacy of the Scriptures from the fourteenth century to the present. Each volume is arranged in scriptural order, and each poem is preceded by the biblical passage that inspired it. Thus readers can conveniently witness the various ways sacred text has sparked the imagination of poets throughout the ages. In Volume I, which covers Genesis to Malachi, almost every book of the Old Testament is represented. The collection featuresverses both famous and unfamiliar, from Milton's Paradise Lost and Lord Byron's Hebrew Melodies to Christopher Smart's hymns and Mary Herbert's psalms. The editors have included poems by virtually all the prominentreligious poets--among them, John Donne, George Herbert, Henry Vaughan, Edward Taylor, and Gerard Manley Hopkins. Included, too, are devotional and visionary works from a wide range of vintage poets--Robert Burns, William Blake, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, Alfred Tennyson, and Robert Browning. Proving that the Bible is just as powerful a source of inspiration today as it was in the past, the collection assembles a mixed congregation of modern andcontemporary poets, such as Marianne Moore, Delmore Schwartz, Dylan Thomas, Robert Frost, William Carlos Williams, Countee Cullen, e.e. cummings, William Butler Yeats, Robert Lowell, Hugh McDiarmid, Laura(Riding) Jackson, Charles Reznikoff, A.D. Hope, Geoffrey Hill, Denise Levertov, Philip Levine, John Ashbery, and Derek Walcott. Of enduring interest to readers of both scripture and literature, this anthology illuminates key passages of the Old Testament. The measured speech and inspired leaps of poetry offer a spirited alternative to the textual exegesis usually supplied by prose commentary. As such, Chapters Into Verse is truly a poets' Bible. In selection after selection,readers will encounter an astonishing variety of religious experiences, as a host of poets from many eras and many backgrounds respond to Holy Scripture spiritually, profoundly, and imaginatively. From John Milton to D. H. Lawrence, poets have found creative inspiration in the Bible. This unique two-volume collection encompasses work of a variety of tones, from devotional and meditative, to sardonic or political. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Limited to 400 copies, SIGNED by Evenson; additionally signed by artist Eric Hanson. Each book is unique; red highlights are hand-applied, literally. Bound in white linen; no jacket issued. Near fine. Imagine having recurring nightmares of a woman who has one normal leg and one baby leg, and then waking up to wonder if today will be the day when they whoever they are find you and kill you. Unless you re missing the point. Maybe they already have you and the world is a great deal more grotesque than you could ever imagine. Film noir collides with virtual worlds in this dark and strange novella that only Brian Evenson could have written. "Via a series of sparely rendered dream loops, each wormed so deep into the other that it is no longer safe to say which might be which, Baby Leg extends the already wide mind-belt of Brian Evenson s terror parade another mile, and well beyond. Those familiar with the Evensonian memory fractals, his freak-noir theaters, and his fetish for leagues of amputees, will find herein not only another puzzle box to nuzzle in its reader s memory long after the book is closed, but as well enough blood and fearlight and paranoia to make Kafka or Hitchcock seem a foundling. "Who am I?" our narrator, Kraus asks, among Baby Leg s endless questionings, its barrage. "Where am I?" What is it? And now? Thereafter, through the magicked wrath of Evenson s dream speaking, from each of these questions birth more questions, and more questions, on and on, creating around the reader a glassy lockbox much like the one we find, we think, our Kraus, poor thing, inside." Blake Butler. Signed by Author(s).

He contributed to George Sale's Universal History, and wrote a Political Survey of Britain (1744). He was both prolific and well paid: according to James Boswell, Samuel Johnson spoke of Campbell to Joseph Warton as 'the richest author that ever grazed the common of literature.' He was the son of a Campbell of Glenlyon, captain in a regiment of horse, and was born at Edinburgh on 8 March 1708. At the age of five he was taken to Windsor by his mother, originally of that town, and educated under the direction of an uncle, who placed him as a clerk in an attorney's office. He left the law for literature, in the 1730s. In 1754 the University of Glasgow conferred on him the degree of LL.D. In March 1765 he was appointed his majesty's agent for the Province of Georgia, and held the office until his death. He died on 28 December 1775, having received in the preceding year from the Empress Catherine of Russia a present of her portrait. Campbell produced at the age of 28 a Military History of the late Prince Eugene of Savoy and the late John, Duke of Marlborough illustrated with variety of copper-plates of battles,

[Potter 201; Fielding 1986, p. 972]. An impressive FIRST FOLIO DELUXE EDITION of the ever-popular collection of quatrains (rubÄ Ê¿iyÄ t) by the Persian polymath Omar Khayyám (1048 - 1131). This book was a publishing sensation: both the deluxe edition of 100 copies and the regular unsigned print run with paper cover and typeset text were released in Boston on November 8th, 1884 and sold out within six days. Houghton Mifflin reissued the Vedder Rubáiyát in different formats in 1886. New editions and reprints continued into the 1920s. This project was was a very personal one for the American artist Elihu Vedder who worked on the 57 illustrations for almost a full year. His highly mystical imagery and visionary style was a perfect match for the strong emotional content of the Rubáiyát, and probably mirror his own emotions at the loss of two of his children and the birth of another. Vedder rearranged the stanzas from Edward Fitzgerald's translation, organizing them in three sections (Joy, Death, Rebirth) which echo his own emotional path and the revelations he drew from the Persian quatrains. The works were printed on Japanese paper for the deluxe edition and reproduced the pencil, ink, chalk, and watercolor drawings through a new photographic process, Albertype, which could accurately replicate the subtle gradations of the originals. Later editions were smaller and used a half-tone process which could not convey the full depth of Vedder's artistry. The original drawings are in the holdings of the Smithsonian National Museum of American Art, as is a deluxe copy of the book (copy offered here in finer condition) and were the subject of a special exhibition in 1998 "Elihu Vedder's Drawings for the Rubáiyát" , which then toured several museums around the U.S. in 2008-2009. ELIHU VEDDER (February 26, 1836 - January 29, 1923) was an American symbolist painter, book illustrator, and poet. Born in New York City, he trained in New York, Paris and Italy, where he was strongly influenced by Italian Renaissance work and by the modern Macchiaioli painters. He finally settled in Rome after the end of the Civil War and had a home in Capri following the commercial success of his Rubáiyát. He also traveled frequently to England and was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites, and by the work of English and Irish mystics such as William Blake and William Butler Yeats. His most public commission was for mural paintings at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., and Tiffany & Co. commissioned him to design statuettes, mosaics and glassware. He moved back to Italy permanently in 1906 and is buried in the Protestant Cemetery in Rome.
