| Description: |
This book explores the ways in which Blake reacted to the subcultures of his day, as well as how he has inspired popular, modernist and postmodernist figures until the present day. Blake's influence on later generations of writers and artists is more important than ever, extending into film, psychology, children's literature and graphic novels. |
| Synopsis: |
Two and a half centuries after his birth, Blake's influence on later generations of writers and artists is more important than ever, extending into film, psychology, children's literature and graphic novels as well as poetry, painting and fiction. This collection of essays brings together a range of new and established scholars to consider the ways in which Blake reacted to the subcultures of his day, as well as how he has inspired popular, modernist and postmodernist figures until the present day. Blake, Modernity and Popular Culture considers the impact of Blake's art and poetry on individuals and genres as diverse as T.S. Eliot, Johnny Depp and Philip Pullman, Victorian art and the Hollywood blockbuster. |
