PHRE 420 - William Blake’s Religious Thought

This course takes an interdisciplinary religious studies, literature, and aesthetics approach to selected works of the English Romantic poet, painter, and engraver William Blake (1757-1827). We attend to both the visual and verbal dimensions of his works, focusing specifically on their theological dimensions as contextualized in Blake’s time. This is a seminar designed for upper-level majors and minors in PHRE, English Literature, Art, or Art History who are interested in honing their interpretive skills.
