About This Item

1927 WILLIAM BLAKE Songs EXPERIENCE Innocence Poetry Collection ART Illustrated

"Songs of Experience" is a 1794 collection of 26 poems by William Blake, the counterpart to his "Songs of Innocence." The work explores darker themes of human life such as poverty, exploitation, and social corruption, reflecting Blake's critiques of industrialization and the Church. Famous poems like "The Tyger" and "London" employ complex symbolism and allegory, making the collection a profound exploration of human despair and potential redemption.
