"Songs of Innocence and of Experience"

Our journey begins...

And we start with a foundation. I'm using the published works of William Blake, "Songs of Innocence and of Experience." This is a collection of two different works, with Innocence first printed in 1789 and then Experience printed in 1794. I always enjoy reading from hard material, hence the book. Other works I find for this blog maybe from electronic resources.

About the book I bought is particularly interesting for, as it includes prints of Blake's etchings. He was most known for his engraving work rather then his poems. I will be looking at his poetry first in this blog, but seeing his other artistic talents is a treat. The book's ISBN is 0192810898. So now we can start to build upward and look downward.
