초록

Blake was a poet of imagination, a mystic, and a prophet against empire. He asserts that the nature of his work is visionary or imaginative. As for him, writing poetry is an endeavor to restore what the ancients called the Golden Age. By his poetry Blake wanted to build the Paradise in human society. In other words, he wanted to build what he called a City of Art, "Golgonooza." So he created his own myth of creation on the basis of the Bible. Blake is of all English poets the supreme poet of the City, and what he wrote on his own city, London, must surely have meaning for any city. For Blake a city is a living organism, a living spiritual entity. It is the inner lives of the inhabitants as these act and interact upon one another. Of this invisible city, composed of a multitude of lives, the city of stone and brick, of streets and buildings, of palaces and churches, is only the image and expression. For Blake his city is above all human. Blake called the spiritual London "Golgonooza". The construction of Golgonooza, the utopian city, cannot wait for proper materials: the stones must be formed of "pity", and the curtains of "woven tears & sighs."

Abstract

Blake was a poet of imagination, a mystic, and a prophet against empire. He asserts that the nature of his work is visionary or imaginative. As for him, writing poetry is an endeavor to restore what the ancients called the Golden Age. By his poetry Blake wanted to build the Paradise in human society. In other words, he wanted to build what he called a City of Art, "Golgonooza." So he created his own myth of creation on the basis of the Bible. Blake is of all English poets the supreme poet of the City, and what he wrote on his own city, London, must surely have meaning for any city. For Blake a city is a living organism, a living spiritual entity. It is the inner lives of the inhabitants as these act and interact upon one another. Of this invisible city, composed of a multitude of lives, the city of stone and brick, of streets and buildings, of palaces and churches, is only the image and expression. For Blake his city is above all human. Blake called the spiritual London "Golgonooza". The construction of Golgonooza, the utopian city, cannot wait for proper materials: the stones must be formed of "pity", and the curtains of "woven tears & sighs."
