First published in 1998, this book formed part of an ongoing effort to restore politics and history to the centre of Blake studies. It adopts a three pronged approach when presenting its essays, seeking to promote a return to the political Blake; to deepen the understanding of some of the conversations articulated in Blake’s art by introducing new, historical material or new interpretations of texts; and to highlight differing perspectives on Blake’s politics among historically focused critics. The collection contains essays with varying methodological assumptions and differing positions on questions central to historicist Blake scholarship.

A groundbreaking, international collection This anthology of original essays charts new territory in mapping the work of William Blake, combining traditional and current historicist methods with a plurality of other approaches. The first new volume on Blake in the U.S. in over 10 years, it features up-to-date scholarship by major Blake scholars plus ground-breaking work from newcomers. The volume's international scope and the fact that it contains more work by women than previous collections makes it unique. Blake as the oracle of new historical criticism This work represents an ongoing effort to restore politics and history to the center of Blake studies, which is particularly important in North America where Blake has been conscripted as the oracle of a new wave of historical criticism. Unlike other anthologies this volume offers a dual heritage of Blake interpretation: it brings the historical-political tradition long popular in British Blake studies into dialog with North American scholarship. While many essays here recuperate a radical Blake opposed to imperialism, slavery, and patriarchy, differences emerge over the nature of Blake's radicalism and his stance on revolution, violence, and democratic pluralism. Contributors may champion a Blake critical of patriarchal discourse and practice, but they remain cautious about Blake's homocentric solutions. In the Blake and Women section, authors seek to reorient discussions by connecting Blake to historical issues concerning women, particularly domestic ideology and the idealized female of the conduct books. Blake as a revolutionary artist Situating itself within a resurgent historicism, this bold anthology moves away from the apolitical Blake of mentalist and deconstructionalist criticism toward the revolutionary artist celebrated in Peter Ackroyd's biography and Jim Jarmusch's film Dead Man. In doing so, it appeals to a wide-ranging audience: not only Blake scholars, inside and out of the academy, but Romanticists, art and literary historians, and contemporary theorists working on feminism, new historicism, cultural studies, and post-colonial and reader response theory.
