Visionary imagination and modern crises: Blake, Emerson and Whitman

Authors

No. 103 (2021): Mayo

Abstract

This study intends to articulate correspondences between the visionary imagination and the fissures produced by an industrial and protestant modernity in a selection of poems and referential writings by William Blake, R. W. Emerson, and Walt Whitman. The relationship between the integrative nature of a mundus imaginalis and its figuration in the works of the poets is also relevant. As a result, we can better appreciate poetic visions that converse, simultaneously, with an imaginal site and its necessary counterpart, a disenchanted modern culture.

Keywords:
