Central to the argument is a re-definition of the role of Los and Jesus in Blakes work. Publisher Description `Short copy entry, for Eng Lit 91 This book focuses on the tension in Blakes poetry between a hermeneutics of suspicion and a hermeneutics of belief: it offers a new account of the way in which Blakes major prophecies work and of the stratagems they employ to consolidate error and so open their readers eyes to `otherness. Central to Peter Ottos reading is a re-definition of the role of Los and Jesus in Blakes work, emphasising Blakesprophetic intent. In the course of a radically new reading of Milton and Jerusalem, it is argued that in these poems the autonomous, world-forming imagination (that is staple to many accounts ofRomanticism) is subject to visionary deconstruction. Rather than subordinating existence to perception, Blakes poems attempt to induce their readers to act. Constructive Vision is the first systematic and comprehensive analysis of Blakes work to draw on a radically new understanding of Blakes view of humanity.
