"William Blake and the Myths of Britain is the first full-length study of Blake's use of British mythology and history. From Atlantis to the Deists of the Napoleonic Wars, this book addresses the revival of interest in the legends of Britain during the eighteenth century and how Blake applied these in his extraordinary prophetic histories of the giant Albion."--Jacket.
