William Blake's Boyhood is a biographical account of the early years of the renowned English poet and artist, William Blake. Written by Osbert Burdett, the book provides a detailed description of Blake's childhood, upbringing, and formative experiences that shaped his creative genius. Burdett explores Blake's family background, his education, and his early exposure to the arts, including his apprenticeship with an engraver. The book also delves into Blake's spiritual and philosophical beliefs, which were heavily influenced by his upbringing in a Dissenting Christian family. Burdett's narrative is based on extensive research and draws from Blake's own writings and letters, as well as other primary sources. Overall, William Blake's Boyhood offers readers a fascinating insight into the life and early development of one of England's most celebrated artists and poets.THIS 24 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: William Blake, by Osbert Burdett.
