William Blake (1757 — 1827) — artist, visionary, one of the greatest Romantic poets of the 19th century, to whom European culture owes uncompromising and very original works of art. Blake claimed to have seen angels and spoken with supernatural beings, who then populated his poems and engravings. In Blake's philosophy, human imagination was the key to the gates of eternity, which could be mastered by anyone whose spirit is free. His own imagination, nourished by the richest legacy of philosophy, religion, and myth, allowed him to create poetic worlds that enchant, intrigue, and delight many generations of readers. This edition includes all of Blake's most famous poetic works in the classic translations of S. Marshak, A. Sergeyev, V. Toporov, B. Mikushevich, and G. Kruchkov.
