Beschreibung

In "Milton: A Poem," William Blake emerges as both poet and visionary, crafting an intricate tapestry of imagination that probes the depths of human experience and spirituality. Through the lens of a deeply personal dialectic with the works of John Milton, Blake employs an unconventional blend of lyrical and prophetic styles, distinguished by its ornate language and vivid, often surreal imagery. The illuminated manuscript format, adorned with Blake's original illustrations, transforms the reading experience into a multisensory exploration of lofty themes such as redemption, creative struggle, and the eternal conflict between good and evil, situated within the broader context of Romantic literature's search for individual truth and meaning. William Blake (1757-1827), a seminal figure in the Romantic movement, was a poet, painter, and printmaker whose visionary works drew inspiration from both personal experiences and the political and artistic shifts of his time. Raised in a religious yet often repressive environment, Blake developed a unique worldview that challenged contemporary norms and questioned authority, shaping his artistic endeavors. His profound engagement with mysticism and the complexities of human nature profoundly influenced the creation of "Milton," where he intertwines his own spiritual journey with Milton's epic narratives. Recommended for readers seeking a captivating blend of poetic depth and artistic innovation, "Milton: A Poem" offers a rich exploration of Blake's own mythos and reflects the transformative power of imagination. This manuscript is not merely a poem; it is a multilayered experience that beckons readers to ponder their own existence and creativity. Blake'Äôs enduring legacy resonates through this work, making it an essential addition to the libraries of both poetry enthusiasts and students of Romantic literature.

Fidget is writer Kenneth Goldsmith's transcription of every movement made by his body during 13 hours on Bloomsday (June 16) 1997. It is a hypnotic work, strangely compelling and disorienting at the same time; you'll never think about your body in the same way again.
   
Originally commissioned by the Whitney Museum of American Art as a collaboration with vocalist Theo Bleckmann, Fidget attempts to reduce the body to a catalogue of mechanical movements by a strict act of observation. The stress of this rigorous exercise creates a condition of shifting reference points and multiple levels of observation that inevitably undermines the author's objective approach, and the trajectory of the work begins to change.
   
The text of Fidget is followed by an afterword written by Marjorie Perloff, which both explains the circumstances of the project's creation (including the important role Jack Daniel's plays in the latter part of the text) and explores its results.
