A book of paramount importance to Blake studies. Malkin was a personal friend of William Blake with whom he shared an interest in radical politics and on the death of his gifted six-year-old son Thomas in 1802 Malkin commissioned Blake to design the frontispiece for Malkin's FATHER'S MEMOIR. In his Preface to this work Malkin gives what the DNB calls the "first and fullest" account of Blake's early life and career and it was with this very tribute to his friend's idiosyncratic genius that Malkin first gave impetus to a more general appreciation of William Blake's art.

The editors also present plate by plate commentary on how the illustrations contribute to the creation of a composite visual-verbal style. The extensive notes will assist readers through Milton its central themes and its byway its heights and depths. Milton is a difficult and cryptic poem.and scholars will find much new information in this volume.
