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

William Blake and The Sea Monsters of Love - Philip Hoare

How one visionary inspired 200 years of art, poetry, and protestâ ¦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.â ˜A life-changing bookâ ™ The Times, Book of the Weekâ ˜A poetic fever dreamâ ™Telegraphâ ˜Queer in all senses of the wordâ ™ Neil Tennantâ ˜Undoubtedly Hoareâ ™s masterpieceâ ™ 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 â “ 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.â ˜A book that is neither Blake biography nor critical analysis nor legacy-tracing nor personal odyssey but a capacious mixing of them all â ¦ a joyful and dizzying romp through the stories of those who came under Blakeâ ™s posthumous spellâ ™ Philip Marsden,Spectator â ˜Beneath the leaps and returns, the book is skilfully structured, following Blakeâ ™s life and art, and rendering all the inset lives complete, however discontinuous they appear â ¦ One can foresee a rush of books in the run-up to 2027, the bicentenary of Blakeâ ™s death, but nothing will be as audacious or intriguing as William Blake and the Sea Monsters of Loveâ ™ Jenny Uglow, TLS

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.

William Wilberforce - William Hague

William Hague has written the life of William Wilberforce who was both a staunch conservative and a tireless campaigner against the slave trade.Hague shows how Wilberforce, after his agonising conversion to evangelical Christianity, was able to lead a powerful tide of opinion, as MP for Hull, against the slave trade, a process which was to take up to half a century to be fully realised. Indeed, he succeeded in rallying to his cause the support in the Commons Debates of some the finest orators in Parliament, having become one of the most respected speakers of those times.Hague examines twenty three crucial years in British political life during which Wilberforce met characters as varied as Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, Tsar Alexander of Russia, and the one year old future Queen Victoria who used to play at his feet. He was friend and confidant of Pitt, Spencer Perceval and George Canning. He saw these figures raised up or destroyed in twenty three years of war and revolution.Hague presents us with a man who teemed with contradictions: he took up a long list of humanitarian causes, yet on his home turf would show himself to be a firm supporter of the instincts, interests and conservatism of the Yorkshire freeholders who sent him to Parliament.William Hague s masterful study of this remarkable and pivotal figure in British politics brings to life the great triumphs and shattering disappointments he experienced in his campaign against the slave trade, and shows how immense economic, social and political forces came to join together under the tireless persistence of this unique man.

The Collected Poems of William Wordsworth - William Wordsworth

With an Introduction by Antonia Till.William Wordsworth (1771-1850) is the foremost of the English Romantic poets. He was much influenced by the events of the French Revolution in his youth, and he deliberately broke away from the artificial diction of the Augustan and neo-classical tradition of the eighteenth century. He sought to write in the language of ordinary men and women, of ordinary thoughts, sights and sounds, and his early poetry represents this fresh approach to his art.Wordsworth spent most of his adult life in the Lake District with his sister Dorothy and his wife Mary, by whom he had four children. His remarkable autobiographical poem The Prelude was completed in 1805, but was not published until after his death, and it is included in this full edition of Wordsworth s poetry.

The first comprehensive study on the work of visionary painter William Monk William Monk is a British-born, New York-based artist known for his enigmatic and vibrant paintings that often investigate the same motif or theme in different permutations. Deeply interested in the idea of creating images that are not a direct transcript of the real world but a product of his mind, Monk creates starkly divisional compositions carrying irregular intensities of detail, line, foreground, and background, pushing his work and the foundational elements of painting to the point where model and subject become two separate entities.

Peter Blake - Marco Livingstone

A fully updated edition of the most comprehensive illustrated survey of the life and work of Peter Blake, one of Britainâ ™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 â “ most notably his design for The Beatlesâ ™ 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 Blakeâ ™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 1959â “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 â ˜Late Periodâ ™, 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 Blakeâ ™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.

He has also illustrated literary classics such as A Christmas Carol, Candide, and Don Quixote, and in the last twenty years, Blake has extended his practice to large-scale works for hospitals, libraries, and public spaces. He has received numerous prizes and awards for his illustration work, including the Whitbread Award, the Kate Greenaway Medal, and the international Bologna Ragazzi Award. In 1999, he was appointed the United Kingdom’s first-ever Children’s Laureate; he has won the Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration, the highest international recognition given to creators of children’s books; and he has been awarded a knighthood for “services to illustration.”A unique celebration of the illustrator’s art to date, this beautiful collection guides the reader through Blake’s extraordinary body of work.

Two Sisters - Blake Morrison

Tender, vivid and achingly sad GUARDIAN, BOOK OF THE YEARTWO SISTERS publishes on the 30th anniversary of Blake Morrison⠙s ground-breaking book And When Did You Last See Your Father? which forged the way for a new genre of confessional memoir.⠘She⠙s gone, that⠙s all, and though there⠙s no retrieving her I⠙d like to make sense of who she was and what she became. It wasn⠙t just that she changed over time. She could change from day to day. Drink made it worse but the origins went deeper. 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
