Beastly Blake shifts focus to the non-human creatures who populate Blake?s poetry and designs. The author of ?The Tyger? and ?The Lamb? was equally struck by the ?beastliness? and the beauty of the animal kingdom, the utter otherness of animal subjectivity and the meaningful relationships between humans and other creatures. ?Conversing with the Animal forms of wisdom night & day?, Blake fathomed how much they have to teach us about creation and eternity. This collection ranges from real animals in Blake?s surroundings, to symbolic creatures in his mythology, to animal presences in his illustrations of Virgil, Dante, Hayley, and Stedman. It makes a third to follow Queer Blake and Sexy Blake in irreverently illuminating blind spots in Blake criticism. Beastly Blake will reward lovers of Blake?s writing and visual art, as well as those interested in Romanticism and animal studies. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Animals and Literature,$x2634-6338 606 $aPoetry 606 $aLiterature, Modern?18th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern?19th century 606 $aPoetry and Poetics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/824000 606 $aEighteenth-Century Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/819000 606 $aNineteenth-Century Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/821000 615 0$aPoetry. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?18th century. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?19th century. 615 14$aPoetry and Poetics. 615 24$aEighteenth-Century Literature. 615 24$aNineteenth-Century Literature. 676 $a821.7 702 $aBruder$b Helen P$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aConnolly$b Tristanne$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299998703321 996 $aBeastly Blake$92260846 997 $aUNINA
