Review: WILLIAM BLAKE’S VISIONS: ART, HALLUCINATIONS, SYNAESTHESIA by David Worrall
|
This book examines whether Blake's 'visions'—visual, auditory, and visual hallucinations—actually derive from several types of synaesthesia. Blake is a celebrated 'visionary,' and yet his ‘visions’ have not been discussed. Worrall draws on neuroscience to examine both Blake’s visual art and writings to question the rumours about Blake's insanity.
