Being born in a time of expanding industrial revolution‚ Blake viewed industrialization as a curse for enslaving people‚ and allowing their masters to treat them badly. He also had strong views on seeing children as innocent. This caused him to hate child labor and show disgust to the world he was living in. It is no wonder then‚ that Blake preached his romantic views in his poetry and

Blake also placed each poem in the respective books either of ‘Innocence’ or ‘Experience.’ Blake’s use literary imagery to engage the reader’s imagination to grasp his idea of the

“The Human Abstract” was written by William Blake in 1789 and published in Songs of Experience in 1794 as a pair to Songs of Innocence. Along with the other songs published in Experience‚ “The Human Abstract” delves into the duality of human nature with a mature and often despondent tone. First titled “The Human Image‚” the poem is a pair to “The Divine Image‚” which establishes four abstract virtues‚ Mercy‚ Pity‚ Peace‚ and Love‚ but also hints to Blake’s religious belief that God is within the

On this score‚ I strongly identify with Shadrack Ambansom’s opinion that “it would therefore be myopic to consider Blake as a simple poet… indeed no poet who was capable of presenting penetrating studies of the devious and treacherous human heart as ‘The Human Abstract’‚ and ‘A Poison Tree’ etc can be called simple” (24). Blake‚ like Marlowe in Dr. Faustus‚ exhibits in his Songs of Innocence and Experience that the human soul has a dual nature‚ essentially made up of
