Revolution und Krieg in Europa, Sklaverei und Ausbeutung in den europäischen Kolonien, Unterdrückung und Reaktion im heimischen Großbritannien – vor diesem Hintergrund schuf William Blake ein erstaunliches OEuvre, das seine Kritik an der damaligen Welt mit einer Vision von universeller Erlösung verknüpfte. Außerhalb Englands ist sein Werk noch immer wenig bekannt. Trotzdem war Blake ein Künstler von europäischer Bedeutung – mit faszinierenden Parallelen in der deutschen Kunst, die im Angesicht vernichtender politischer Krisen neue Weltentwürfe schuf, allen voran Philipp Otto Runge und Caspar David Friedrich. Der Katalog präsentiert die epochemachende Dimension von Blakes Werk und zeigt den Künstler als wahrhaften Europäer, obwohl er Großbritannien nie verließ.WILLIAM BLAKE (1757–1827) war ein englischer Dichter, Zeichner und Drucker. In London geboren, machte er eine Lehre zum Kupferstecher und studierte kurz an der Royal Academy of Arts. Zeitgenössisch wurde sein sehr individuelles und visionäres Werk oft abgelehnt. Blakes sich allen Stilen entziehende Arbeiten prägte die Verbindung von Bild und Text, für die er die Relief-Radierung erfand.

Entertaining, informative, without being overwhelming.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Got it for, basically, half-off standard retail. At that price, it's a fine addition to the WWII library. Some interesting information displayed in a mostly entertaining way. I get that battle maps are always a challenge (maps are static - battles are dynamic). This does a fairly adequate job - better than most battle maps - though far from groundbreaking. item arrived well packed - no issues with binding (as some others seem to report). Though the book overall is a bit "warped" and several of the maps are mis-printed or mis-cut as to make them unusable. 3 bad out of 300 - not horrible - again at the price I paid. If the subject interest you - I'd suggest getting - but not a "must have".

For the history buff or student - this is worth the purchase
Format: Hardcover
Detailed, individual maps and history on the battles of World War II. It isn’t too overwhelming for the student and is an enjoyable read for the history buff. Hardback so it will ensure lots of reading and reviews, durable pages too (not those thin, flimsy, easily tearable pages!) - this book will likely stand the test of our schooling years and beyond.
