  • William Blake's Prophetic & Mystical Mythology - Analysis of The Book of Urizen & its Gnostic Myth

    William Blake is well known as a engraver, painter and poet but he was also a profound and prolific mystical prophet, composing volumes detailing his own gnostic-like personal mythology. While his early poems are well known, these prophetic works largely go tragically under-appreciated due to their obscure complexity. In collaboration with @TheArtTourist , this episode serves an introduction to his mythos by turning to his foundational 1794 Book of Urizen and an analysis of to what degree can we think of Blake's system as gnostic.

  • Know the Artist: William Blake Revisited

    As is often the case with free-spirited visionaries, the weird and wonderful William Blake (British, 1757–1827) was largely disregarded during his lifetime. Now we celebrate his blazing genius, which kindled a fantastical mythos of divine beings, profound works of poetry, and some of the most brilliantly bizarre images in British art. We’re delighted to present this video in collaboration with @TheEsotericaChannel where Dr. Justin Sledge explores the arcane realms of history, philosophy, and religion. Click the link below for Dr. Sledge’s investigation into the mystical forces that guided Blake. https://youtu.be/wXN2CRpWAzU #williamblake #britishartist #arthistory

As is often the case with free-spirited visionaries, the weird and wonderful William Blake (British, 1757–1827) was largely disregarded during his lifetime. Now we celebrate his blazing genius, which kindled a fantastical mythos of divine beings, profound works of poetry, and some of the most brilliantly bizarre images in British art. We’re delighted to present this video in collaboration with @TheEsotericaChannel where Dr. Justin Sledge explores the arcane realms of history, philosophy, and religion. Click the link below for Dr. Sledge’s investigation into the mystical forces that guided Blake. https://youtu.be/wXN2CRpWAzU #williamblake #britishartist #arthistory

The author Peter Ackroyd, Blake’s latest biographer, is the guide as this program explores late-Georgian London: a world of political ferment and religious dispute, where the winds of revolution were blowing across the sea from America and France and a mad king sat on the English throne. The program examines Blake’s artistic achievement and assesses his continuing appeal.
