''If a thing loves, it is infinite'' William BlakeA short, impassioned argument for why the visionary artist William Blake is important in the twenty-first centuryThe visionary poet and painter William Blake is a constant presence throughout contemporary culture - from videogames to novels, from sporting events to political rallies and from horror films to designer fashion. Although he died nearly 200 years ago, something about his work continues to haunt the twenty-first century. What is it about Blake that has so endured? In this illuminating essay, John Higgs takes us on a whirlwind tour to prove that far from being the mere New Age counterculture figure that many assume him to be, Blake is now more relevant than ever.

William Blake and The Sea Monsters of Love - Philip Hoare
How one visionary inspired 200 years of art, poetry, and protest…Weaving between the historical, cultural and personal, award-winning author Philip Hoare reveals a web of creative minds and artistic iconoclasts fired with the wild and revolutionary genius of William Blake.‘A life-changing book’ The Times, Book of the Week‘A poetic fever dream’Telegraph‘Queer in all senses of the word’ Neil Tennant‘Undoubtedly Hoare’s masterpiece’ Olivia LaingIn 1973, Derek Jarman set off from London to film the stones of Avebury. He was following in the footsteps of Paul Nash, who had photographed the ancient megaliths a generation before. Standing in that muddy field, by those stones, both artists had felt a direct connection to their hero – a man who had died a long, long time ago, yet who remained electrically alive to them.In this alluring and poetic odyssey, Philip Hoare traces the enduring legacy of William Blake and how he came to inspire so many creative lives. Reaching out of his past and into our future, Blake draws together the natural world and metaphysical realms, merging the human and the animal and the spiritual, firing up twentieth-century artists, filmmakers, poets, writers and musicians with his radical promise of absolute freedom. This stirring, deeply felt book brings us back to Blake and shows that art still has the power to create positive change.‘A book that is neither Blake biography nor critical analysis nor legacy-tracing nor personal odyssey but a capacious mixing of them all … a joyful and dizzying romp through the stories of those who came under Blake’s posthumous spell’ Philip Marsden,Spectator ‘Beneath the leaps and returns, the book is skilfully structured, following Blake’s life and art, and rendering all the inset lives complete, however discontinuous they appear … One can foresee a rush of books in the run-up to 2027, the bicentenary of Blake’s death, but nothing will be as audacious or intriguing as William Blake and the Sea Monsters of Love’ Jenny Uglow, TLS

William Blake: Selected Poems - William Blake
''To see a World in a Grain of Sand''And a Heaven in a Wild FlowerHold Infinity in the palm of your handAnd Eternity in an hour''William Blake wrote some of the most moving and memorable verse in the English language. Deeply committed to visionary and imaginative experience, yet also fiercely engaged with the turbulent politics of his era, he is now recognised as a major contributor to the Romantic Movement. This edition presents Blake''s poems in their literary categories and genres to which they belong: his much-loved lyrics, ballads, comic and satirical verse, descriptive and discursive poems, verse epistles, and, finally, his remarkable ''prophetic'' poems, including the whole of his two diffuse epics, Milton and Jerusalem. Blake''s poetry is intellectually challenging as well as formally inventive, and this edition has a substantial critical introduction which places his ideas in the contemporary context of the Enlightenment and the artistic reaction against its key assumptions.

Svět v zrnku písku - William Blake, Květa Krhánková
Reedice výboru Blakeovy poezie v překladu Jiřího Valji.William Blake (28. 11. 1757 - 12. 8. 1827). Anglický básník, grafik, výtvarník, filozof, vynálezce. Jedna z nejvýraznějších a nejoriginálnějších osobností romantismu. Revolucionář a kritik uspořádání společnosti. V jeho díle se prolíná tvorba básníka, mystika a vizionáře s tvorbou malíře a především kreslíře a grafika. William Blake byl básník i výtvarník experimentální, jeho práce vyrůstaly z nespokojenosti, filozofický odboj spojoval s hledáním nových výrazových prostředků. Blakeův mytologický systém je nám dnes stejně vzdálený jako mytologie antická, stejně jako ona přestal být skutečností teologickou a stal se faktem uměleckým. Jeho dílo zůstává živé těmi umělecky silnými hodnotami, k nimž jej jeho mystický názor podněcoval: odvahou přemýšlet samostatně o dogmatu, konkrétním a přitom filozofickým básnickým viděním a lidským zaujetím umělce, pro něhož příroda je mrtvá, není-li v ní člověk. Blake ovlivnil i mnohé umělce 20. století. Jeho verš: "Kdyby byly dveře vnímání očištěny, všechno by se člověku zjevilo ve své nekonečné podstatě" inspiroval Jima Morrisona k pojmenování své skupiny The Doors. Sbírka obsahuje i nejznámější, děsivě krásnou báseň Tygře, tygře.

''To see the world in a grain of sand, and to see heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hands, and eternity in an hour'' William BlakeWilliam Blake was a poet and artist. Born in Soho in the eighteenth century, the son of a shopkeeper, he is now acclaimed as a radical left-field artist. Most recently, the Tate held an exhibition of his work: ''Magnificent ... reveal''s Blake''s vision at its most vivid and strange'' GUARDIANBlake''s written work was equally vivid. A major poet of the Romantic age, the full range of his poetry includes the joyful and sorrowful, the childlike and complex - and illustrates his original and prophetic vision. Considered mad by contemporaries for his idiosyncratic opinions, he is now revered for the depth of his poetry and art, and the philosophical undercurrents intrinsic to all his creative work.''If the Sun and Moon should ever doubt, they''d immediately go out''''The imagination is not a state; it is the human existence itself''

But the off-screen story is equally extraordinary - a tale of failed monks, war heroes, 1960s polyamory and self-sabotaging broadcasting executives. From the politics of fandom to the inner struggles of the BBC, thousands of people have given part of themselves - and sometimes, too much of themselves - to bring this unlikeliest of folk heroes to life.This is a story of change, mystery and the importance of imaginary characters in our lives. Able to evolve and adapt more radically than any other fiction, Doctor Who has acted as a mirror to more than six decades of social, technological and cultural change while always remaining a central fixture of the British imagination. In Exterminate / Regenerate, John Higgs invites us into his TARDIS on a journey to discover how ideas emerge and survive despite the odds, why we are so addicted to fiction, and why this wonderful wandering time traveller means so much to so many.

Blake was one of the finest craftsmen of his time, an artist for whom art and poetry were inextricably linked. He was an indepedent and rebellious thinker, who abhorred pretention and falsity in others. His Songs of Innocence are products of this innocent imagination untainted by worldliness, while the Songs of Experience resulted from his feelings of indignation and pity for the sufferings of mankind. The Songs of Innocence and Experience , containing some of Blake''s finest and best-loved poems, are presented here in the form which best satisfied the high expectations of his poetic and artistic aspirations.

Lynchian - Higgs John
Much like the loss of David Bowie, David Lynch''s death produced an extraordinary outpouring of love and grief that revealed how deeply he mattered to us. But the strength and size of this reaction came as a surprise to many. In life, Lynch was a wilfully obtuse cult filmmaker who had not been able to get a film financed for the last two decades of his life. In death, he is now in the pantheon of the all-time greats - both his work, and the man himself.He leaves behind an adjective, ''Lynchian'', a term used to describe work that echoes his. And yet, only Lynch could be truly Lynchian. Those who copy him fail to have an impact, and no one else can make the sort of films that he did. So why does his work affect people so deeply? Why do some find it haunting and unforgettable while others dismiss it as meaningless? Answering that question takes us into the strange realms of psychology, art and theology. We will discover which personality types are more comfortable with ambiguity, how Lynch''s creative and meditation practices overlap, and why a director whose work contains so much abuse of women has such a female-skewing fanbase.Through a personal, first-person lens, Lynchian unpacks the mystery but refuses to solve the enigma of an artist who reshaped cinema from the inside out - where story gives way to dreams, and meaning lies not in answers, but in experience.

The Vampyre - John William Polidori
When Aubrey, a young Englishman, meets a mysterious man from London high society, Lord Ruthven, they become unlikely friends. Shortly after, Aubrey decides to accompany the noble on a trip to Rome. However, when a moral disagreement arises between the two, Aubrey decides to leave Ruthven in Rome, and goes off on his own. Arriving in Greece, Aubrey meets Ianthe, and the two share an immediate connection. After sharing stories and an evening together, Aubrey and Ianthe part ways for the night. However, after a devastating turn of events, Aubrey and Ruthven reunite, and Aubrey, ready to leave Greece behind, is happy to travel with the older man once again. But as they continue their travels, Aubrey slowly begins to notice Ruthven’s odd behavior. After even more consideration, Aubrey realizes a shocking pattern—nearly everyone that Ruthven comes in close contact to meets an untimely end. Afraid of his newly acquired knowledge, Aubrey attempts to distance himself from the suspicious man, though he is forced to reconsider his efforts when Ruthven expresses intent to marry Aubrey’s sister. First published under Lord Byron’s name, The Vampyre rose to immediate commercial success. However, though he was inspired by a discarded piece of Lord Bryon’s work, both authors have since admitted that John William Polidori was the true writer of The Vampyre. Considered to be the first work of vampire fiction, The Vampyre had an immense role in shaping vampires as literary figures, influencing the canonical rules of vampires that many still follow today. First published in 1819, Polidori’s The Vampyre remains to be a thrilling and spooky read centuries later, and has since inspired both film and theater adaptations. With mystery and eerie suspense, Polidori’s work is an extraordinary example of 19th century gothic horror. This edition of The Vampyre by John William Polidori features a striking new cover design and is printed in a font that is both modern and readable. With these accommodations, The Vampyre caters to a contemporary audience while preserving the original innovation of John William Polidori’s work.

King John - William Shakespeare
King John - today remembered as the villainous opponent of Robin Hood and the Magna Carta - was for Shakespeare and his audience a heroic figure who stood up to England''s enemies. This Penguin Shakespeare edition is edited by R. L. Smallwood with an introduction by Eugene Giddens.''This England never did, nor never shall,Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror''Under the rule of King John, England is forced into war when the French challenge the legitimacy of John''s claim to the throne and determine to install his nephew Arthur in his place. But political principles, hypocritically flaunted, are soon forgotten, as the French and English kings form an alliance based on cynical self-interest. And as the desire to cling to power dominates England''s paranoid and weak-willed king, his country is threatened with disaster. This book contains a general introduction to Shakespeare''s life and Elizabethan theatre, a separate introduction to Richard II, a chronology, suggestions for further reading, an essay discussing performance options on both stage and screen, and a commentary. William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was born to John Shakespeare and Mary Arden in late April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He wrote about 38 plays (the precise number is uncertain), many of which are regarded as the most exceptional works of drama ever produced, including Romeo and Juliet (1595), Henry V (1599), Hamlet (1601), Othello (1604), King Lear (1606) and Macbeth (1606), as well as a collection of 154 sonnets, which are among the most profound and influential love poetry in English.

The hunt for the Higgs particle has involved the biggest, most expensive experiment ever. So exactly what is this particle? Why does it matter so much? What does it tell us about the Universe? Did the discovery announced on 4 July 2012 finish the search? And was finding it really worth all the effort?The short answer is yes. The Higgs field is proposed as the way in which particles gain mass - a fundamental property of matter. It''s the strongest indicator yet that the Standard Model of physics really does reflect the basic building blocks of our Universe. Little wonder the hunt and discovery of this new particle produced such intense media interest.Here, Jim Baggott explains the science behind the discovery, looking at how the concept of a Higgs field was invented, how the vast experiment was carried out, and its implications on our understanding of all mass in the Universe.

The Royal Shakespeare Company''s choice of The Two Noble Kinsmen to open the Swan Theatre in 1986 demonstrated that this long-neglected play has at last come into its own as a stageworthy, humorous, and moving dramatization of the conflicting claims of love and friendship. It was first published in 1634 as `by the memorable worthies of their time, Mr John Fletcher, and Mr William Shakespeare, Gent'' and was probably first performed soon after the wedding of Princess Elizabeth, daughter of the company''s patron James I, to the Elector Palatine in February 1613. The exceptionally full introduction to this edition explains the relevance to the play of ideas of chivalry and of the classical idea of friendship. The edition (which is illuminatingly illustrated) also offers a discussion of the centuries-long debate about the play''s authorship and a clarification of its stage action.

A rousing contemporary translation of Shakespeare’s classic exploration of early English monarchy.  In this modern take on Shakespeare’s King John, Brighde Mullins navigates the political twists and turns of early English monarchy. Mullins’s translation parses Shakespeare’s language carefully, with a focus on its sonic qualities. Her version focuses on the listener, developing the play for the immense pleasure of it—the fortuitous juxtapositions of the fates of these characters.  This translation of King John was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present the work of “The Bard†in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare’s verse. Enlisting the talents of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print—a new First Folio for a new era.

Peter Blake - Marco Livingstone
A fully updated edition of the most comprehensive illustrated survey of the life and work of Peter Blake, one of Britain’s most popular artists. Since his emergence in the early 1960s as a key member of the Pop Art movement, Peter Blake has become one of the best-known and most popular artists of his generation. Though primarily a painter, he has worked across many media, from drawings, watercolours and collages to sculpture and printmaking, as well as commercial art in the form of graphics and album covers – most notably his design for The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper album in 1967. Exploring his remarkable creative output from the 1950s to the present, Peter Blake is the most comprehensive illustrated survey available of the life and work of the artist. Marco Livingstone grounds Blake’s art firmly in his working-class origins, identifying a yearning for the innocence of childhood in his bittersweet paintings of the early to mid-1950s that depict children reading comics or going to the Saturday matinee at the cinema. From that moment, while studying at the Royal College of Art in London, Blake concerned himself with popular entertainments as subject matter, and as the source of formal solutions, for his paintings. The directness with which Blake gave expression to his enthusiasms for mass culture during the 1950s brought him to the forefront of the Pop Art movement before it had even been named, and independently of the investigations into similar areas by other British, American and European artists. The radical nature of his collage paintings of 1959–62, in particular, in which he combined existing imagery from popular culture with unapologetically bold and bright colours, made him a singularly influential figure within British Pop. This fully updated edition includes a new chapter on what the artist has jokingly styled his ‘Late Period’, in which Blake has continued to mine the many strands of his art with undiminished energy and completed some of his most ambitious long-standing projects. As well as the sheer scale of Blake’s production, what becomes clear is the kaleidoscopic variety of subject matter, form and medium to be found in his work, its humour and friendly appeal, and, above all, its celebration of life and humanity.

You never knew which you’d get, the kind and loving Gill or her doppelgänger. Two sisters.’Blake Morrison has lost a sister and a half-sister in recent years. Both are the subjects of this remarkable and heart-breaking memoir, along with a forensic examination of sibling relationships in history and literature.Blake’s sister Gill struggled with alcoholism for a large part of her life, and her shocking death is the starting point for Two Sisters. Blake returns to their childhood to search for the origins of her later difficulties, and in doing so unearths the story behind his half-sister, Josie.As he unravels these narratives, Blake deals movingly in the guilt and shame that will be familiar to every person who has struggled with addiction in their family. He is unflinching in doing so, and the result is a book which provides testament to that common struggle, as well as acknowledging the complex, hidden forces on which all our lives are based.Two Sisters is the extraordinary new memoir from the chronicler of human frailty, Blake Morrison.

ASKO Masivní dřevěná zahradní sestava z borovice BLAKE 1+2
Pořiďte si sestavu stolu a dvou lavic ve skandinávském stylu. Elegantní set zahradního nábytku Blake z borovice s černou podnoží k dostání za skvělou cenu. Sada zahradního nábytku Blake kopíruje neotřelý moderní design a zároveň splňuje všechny požadavky na komfortní sezení. Chcete-li sdílet svůj čas s rodinou nebo přáteli v srdci vaší zahrady nebo na terase, touto sestavou neuděláte chybu. Tmavým kovovým podnožím a dřevěnou deskou těží z industriálního skandinávského stylu, který se skvěle hodí ke všem venkovním dekoracím. Na dvě lavice o délce 160 cm se pohodlně usadí až 6 lidí. O materiálu zahradního posezení Blake Sestava je vyrobena z dřeva skotské borovice v kombinaci s kovovým podnožím ošetřeným práškovým lakem. Skotská borovice je známá pro svou přirozenou odolnost proti špatnému počasí, UV záření a teplotním výkyvům. Prkna jsou ošetřena proti hnilobě. Sestavu můžete nechat venku, není nutná žádná údržba. Stůl a lavice mohou získat přirozenou patinu, což je normální proces. Každý kus je tak po čase originálem. Dřevo se v horku nenahřívá a přežije rozlité pivo i dětské hry. Dřevěné posezení s lavicemi je klasikou v gastro zařízeních, jako jsou zahrádky restaurací, či hospůdek. Dřevo borovice je příjemně měkké, pevné, pružné a obsahuje vyšší podíl pryskyřice, a tak dobře zvládá vlhko. Prkna z ní mají mnoho linií a díky přírodní struktuře je každý kus nábytku originálem s jedinečnou kresbou. Borovice je o něco křehčí než smrk, ale lépe odolává vlhku a zdobí ji výrazné letokruhy. Péče o dřevěný nábytek a doplňky Při běžném čištění stačí nábytek otřít od prachu a nečistot. Pokud je znečištění větší, můžete jej lehce osmirkovat a poté natřít ochranným olejem. Při delším používání nezapomeňte na dotažení šroubů a sklížení spojů. Pokud chcete mít posezení celý rok venku a bez zastřešení, doporučujeme dokoupit ochranné obaly na nábytek. Sestavu přikryjete PVC plachtou, a je tak chráněna před nepříznivými povětrnostními vlivy a zašpiněním. A po každé fujavici si sednete na čistý a suchý nábytek! Aby se vám sedělo ještě pohodlněji, zvažte pořízení polstrů – pro sestavu Blake z borovice se vám budou hodit polstry na lavice. Podušky zajistí měkčí sezení a celý set nábytku barevně oživí. Pak už stačí jen stůl ozdobit pěkným ubrusem a oslava nebo grilovačka může začít. Nebo ji ponechte bez polstrů – masivní dřevo skotské borovice je krásné samo o sobě. Stručně: proč si pořídit set Blake ze skotské borovice? Dřevo je tradičním přírodním materiálem, který nikdy nevyjde z módy, u jídelního stolu se na dvou lavicích pohodlně usadí 6 osob, elegantní venkovní posezení ve skandinávském stylu za příznivou cenu, sestava má vysokou nosnost a při správné péči vám bude dobře sloužit desítky let. Masivní sestava z borovice je nejoblíbenější jako vybavení teras, chat a hospodských zahrádek. Prohlédněte si všechny zahradní sestavy z masivu a vyberte tu nejlepší, se kterou budete trávit příjemné chvíle na zahradě, či terase. Materiál: kov + borovice, Obsahuje: 2x lavice, 1x stůl, Rozměr stolu: délka 1800 x výška 750 x šířka 800, Hmotnost stolu: 79, Rozměr 3-místné lavice/pohovky: délka 1600 x výška 450 x šířka 300, Hmotnost 3-místné lavice/pohovky: 17, Hmotnost balení: 113

Alone With You in the Ether - Olivie Blake
From the internationally bestselling author of The Atlas Six, Alone With You in the Ether by Olivie Blake is a glimpse into the nature of love, what it means to be unwell, and how to face the fractures of yourself and still love as if you're not broken. Chicago, sometime. Two people meet in the armory of the Art Institute by chance.Prior to their encounter, he is a doctoral student who manages his destructive thoughts with compulsive calculations about time travel; she is a bipolar counterfeit artist undergoing court-ordered psychotherapy. After their meeting, those things do not change. Everything else, however, is slightly different.Both obsessive, eccentric personalities, Aldo Damiani and Charlotte Regan struggle to be without each other from the moment they meet. The truth - that he is a clinically depressed, anti-social theoretician and she is a manipulative liar with a history of self-sabotage - means the deeper they fall in love, the more troubling their reliance on each other becomes. Alone With You in the Ether by Olivie Blake is a literary, intimate study of time, space - and a love story like no other.Praise for Olivie Blake:'Olivie Blake is a mind-blowing talent' - Chloe Gong'This is a book to savor' - Publishers Weekly'Pages fly by in this character-driven novel that is intimate, complicated, and utterly romantic' - Booklist
