The Divine Art of Imagination

I know of no other Christianity
And no other Gospel
than the liberty, both of body and mind,
To exercise the Divine Arts of Imagination

William Blake

William Blake was a British poet, painter, visionary mystic, and engraver, who illustrated and printed his own books. Blake proclaimed the supremacy of the imagination over the rationalism and materialism of the 18th- century. Misunderstanding shadowed his career as a writer and artist and it was left to later generations to recognize his importance.
