The Gothic is haunted by the ghost of William Blake. Yet, before now, there has been no major scholarly study focused on Blake's intersection with the Gothic. Scholars of the Gothic have long recognised Blake's affinity with the genre, often invoking his name, characters, and images in passing.
The collection opens with chapters William Blake's Gothic imagination seeks to redress this disconnect and, in the words of another ghost, 'lend a serious hearing' to a dimension of Blake's work we all somehow know to be vital and yet which remains understudied.The essays in this book do not simply identify Blake's Gothic conventions but, thanks to recent scholarship on affect, psychology, and embodiment in Gothic studies, reach deeper into the tissue of anxieties that take confused form through this notoriously nebulous historical, aesthetic, and narrative mode.
