Place reservation for William Blake & the sea monsters of love : how one visionary inspired two hundred years of art, poetry & protestWeaving together fragments of artists' stories across time and place, Philip Hoare embarks on a Sebaldian exploration of the enduring legacy of William Blake. A poet, painter and printmaker who was unappreciated and considered mad in his own time, Blake was eventually lauded as a key pillar of the Romantic movement. His posthumous influence reverberates endlessly, from the work of Paul Nash and Derek Jarman to our ongoing anxieties around technological advancement. Reassessed as a visionary and mythical inspiration to many, Philip Hoare unspools the web of artists, writers and cultural icons who came after him.
