Blake's Drama challenges conventional views of William Blake's multimedia work by reinterpreting it as theatrical performance. Viewed in its dramatic contexts, this art form is shown to provoke an active spectatorship and to depict identity as paradoxically essential and constructed, revealing Blake's investments in drama, action, and the body.

William Blake's 'America A Prophecy' is a significant work of illuminated manuscript, showcasing both his poetic genius and artistic prowess. This prophetic book delves into the complexities of American history and politics, using allegorical figures and visionary imagery to comment on the turbulent times of revolution and rebellion. Blake's unique literary style, characterized by rich symbolism and mystical themes, elevates the work to a level of profound philosophical reflection on the human condition and the nature of power and authority. The original illustrations, meticulously crafted by Blake himself, further enhance the reader's experience, creating a harmonious blend of text and image that invites deeper contemplation of the prophetic message conveyed. In the context of Romantic literature, 'America A Prophecy' stands out as a seminal work that challenges conventions and offers a visionary perspective on the societal changes of the time. William Blake, a visionary poet and artist known for his radical views and spiritual insights, was inspired to create this work as a response to the political upheavals and social injustices of his era. His deep concern for the state of humanity and his belief in the power of imagination as a transformative force are reflected in the prophetic narrative of 'America A Prophecy'. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in exploring the intersection of poetry, art, and political commentary, as well as for those seeking a profound and visionary interpretation of American history and identity.

William Blake's literary works are characterized by a ceaseless dynamics constituted in the fierce interactions of the language, thought, and narrative of his myth. Highlighting the critical problems facing the linear approach that the study of Blake has adopted from the traditional methodology of Newtonian science, Jules van Lieshout argues that nonlinearity is the key to understanding Blake's prophecies. Throughout his discussions, Van Lieshout focuses on the relation of Blake's Generation and Eternity, which he identifies as Bakhtinian 'world views'. In Generation, existence is finalized as a hierarchy of geometric 'dark globes', each assuming the character of universal whole to the exclusion of all others. Eternity, on the other hand, is Blake's fractal 'human form' of existence that is continuously organized and reorganized in the dynamic interaction of whole and parts. Blake represents these world views as interinvolved. Their dynamic interaction reflects and refracts his conceptual thought, mythological narrative, and poetic language. Hence, his visionary epic self-organizes into a self-similar complex system whose patterns of behaviour are not merely remarkably like those that modern applications of nonlinear dynamics are revealing in the physical world, but are indeed inherent in the processes of writing and reading his individual works.
