De Selincourt provides insight into Blake's religious beliefs and his views on politics and society, which were often controversial and ahead of their time.Throughout the book, De Selincourt draws on a wealth of primary sources, including Blake's own letters and notebooks, to provide a rich and nuanced portrait of this fascinating artist.
