Blake's Critique of Transcendence

Blake's Critique of Transcendence is the first full-length book to examine in any detail or consistency the relation between Blake's text and the visual designs in The Four Zoas, one of the most important works in Blake's oeuvre. It revises our understanding of Blake's relation to Swedenborg, Young, and Locke, and provides a new account of Blake's views on the body, imagination, sublimity, sexuality, and transcendence.
