William Blake: Poet, Artist & Visionary - a genius of early Romanticism in England

[@DadePomsouvan]

Poetry is much more than words, it's the silent voice that speaks to our soul, and the muted song that sings to our heart.

[@tamerov2387]

Beautifully said.

William Blake is and always be an incredible genius and a true individual, a man of true creativity and original expression. It always amazed me how they have a museum/attraction about jack the ripper in the very heart of London visited by thousands of tourists every year while William Blake's house in Soho was demolished and converted into an appalling flats complex. Why there isn't a William Blake museum in London? It's sad.

Very telling of where we live now and then.

The Global Anus Organization is moving the ships of Nazism (Nano chip) inside us. To organize people. White Nazi, Black Nazi, fighting shoulder to shoulder against humanity. We are at war. (With the cooperation of some Jews and some Brahmins, humanity is being corrupted and killed. EXACTLY AUSCHWITZ, THE SAME.) The same forces carried out the Second World War. He had progressed using the Brahmin Catholic church. The same situation is happening now. The Papacy is making "warning" statements to get rid of this situation. Same scenario. Stalin is expected! (The military age of Multinational Humanity is beyond Stalin. This is necessary.)

I love his words and paintings....

Very well spoken, explained and you rightly don't mutter about the religious beliefs and I respect your integrity. Geniuses somehow are usually discovered only after their souls have left earth, sadly.

Tiger, tiger burning bright, in the forest of the night. The most popular poem ever written in English. It is not just about a tiger. It is not about a forest. It is a poem full of questions with no answers. And that is the mystery of life.

William Blake was a genius who was a head of his time and he knew it and that depressed him, he felt he had to convey a lot of his art through Christianity so his work wouldn't be seen as demonic but no one was paying attention anyway

[@aldogarcia2150]

villaparis2 very true

[@dontbelievethehype1583]

He wasn't a genius. He was pretentious

[@samluke8121]

Well Blake appears to me as a Christian mystic which is a distinct world from mainstream religion.

[@SimonPaxton_VO]

"What is the Price of Experience?" has to be one of Blake's greatest poems. Timeless, thought-provoking and powerful - like so much of his masterly work, it reminds us of life's injustices and the need to face them. Simon Paxton has recorded it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bni5ZJqnra15aMU

Prin Nagappa Kullur, Bombay, WBlake is the Sun, one ought to possess guts to comprehend his Poetry !

[@pjarrow]

I'd claim that Blake's construction of the universe was centered on man not god. From the Everlasting Gospel: "Thou art a Man: God is no more: Thy own Humanity learn to adore,"

[@samluke8121]

I would claim that he thought the portal to god was threw man himself and not experience externally through an unexplained one off phenomenon. Characteristic of Swedenborgian Christianity.

[@brendantannam499]

@@samluke8121 My two cent's worth is that Blake thought we humans were as close to a god as could ever be got but we needed that four-fold vision to see it.

[@GamingTranceSeer]

So this is the Blake then. It's obvious he's referring to what it says in the bible that God and man are one. God became man and is in man. I'd say more but you're better off finding the rest on your own.

Helped smuggle Thomas Payne from England before his imminent arrest and probably lengthy incarceration, to America, where he started a revolution.
