Book Description
“So many people are so furious about so many things,” cried Margie Bonner, “lobbyists giving bribes, Congress taking bribes—special interests running everything—Wall Street, the banks, US jobs staying overseas, unemployment and wars and dope peddling going on and on, decaying schools, overstuffed slums and prisons, illegal immigration, idiots writing the textbooks, and they all expect my husband to help! From one small incident, they make him a national hero. From one casual remark: ‘The lobbyists and Congress crooks should all be dragged out and shot,’ people think he plans it and will form a new party TO MAKE IT HAPPEN – AND THEY ALL WANT TO JOIN! He can’t deny he’d like to see it happen. The notion gives so many people comfort. We truly need a new party. So he can’t back down. We want to do good, but it is all so complicated—Whom can you trust, for instance, of those rushing in to be your allies? Where will it end?” wonders Margie. “Where will it end?”

Book Description
William Blake called himself a "sublime Artist" and acknowledged his own power to create "the Most Sublime Poetry." Words of Eternity reveals the fundamental importance of the term "sublime" in a defining of Blake's poetic achievement. This first full-length study of Blake and the sublime demonstrates that a sophisticated theory of sublimity permeates his writings, serving him as a personal poetics, a framework in which the difficulties and unusual strategies of the works find their rationale. Vincent De Luca combines historically grounded source study with insights from modern critical theories of textuality to identify Blake's two opposing conceptions of sublimity--a sublime of obscurity, terror, and material power and one of determinate, concentrated intellectual design. De Luca examines the interplay between these two modes from differing perspectives--theoretical, stylistic, and thematic. As the perspectives widen, they embrace many of the speculative systems of Blake's time and reveal these systems as various displaced modalities of an underlying sublime discourse. "Words of Eternity is one of the dozen or so most important books ever written about Blake's poetry. De Luca provides a wealth of new insights on every page."--Robert N. Essick, University of California, Riverside "With the context that this book supplies, we take a quantum leap in the sense we can make of Blake's project. De Luca opens our eyes to a Blake, and a sublime, that will never again be the same for us."--Nelson Hilton, University of Georgia Originally published in 1991. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
