But He Talked of the Temple of Man’s Body
Blake’s Revelation Unlocked
This poetic study is a response to Locke’s philosophy through an analysis of Blake’s linguistic practices. It reads like a narrative of an effort to build, destroy, and rebuild, revealing Blake’s criticism of Locke as a critique of modernity itself.
