Produktbeschreibung
Much has been written about the work of William Blake and some of the religious beliefs that influenced him, but there is a secret history which, until now, has been kept deep beneath the surface in the mystical underground of England in the eighteenth-century. Here, leading Blake scholar Marsha Keith Schuchard reveals an altogether more intriguing and controversial picture of the poet and artist.

The discovery of Blake family documents took Schuchard on a journey of detection that led her to a cast of radical characters including Cagliostro, Zinzendorf and the mystic Swedenborg, and to a world of waking visions, sexual-spiritual experimentation, kabbalistic magic, tantric sex and free love.

Why Mrs Blake Cried offers a new insight into the work of Blake and takes us on an extraordinary journey through secret societies and ancient rituals.

Autorenporträt
Marsha Keith Schuchard received a PhD in British Literature from the University of Texas at Austin, where she began exploring the esoteric-erotic underground of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century secret societies. In Restoring the Temple of Vision: Cabalistic Freemasonry and Stuart Culture (2002), she revealed the early traditions of Jewish and Masonic mysticism that would later influence William Blake. Her archival discoveries about the Moravian and Swedenborgian background of Blake's family reveal new sources for his revolutionary expressions of sexualized spirituality. She lives in Atlanta, Georgia.
