I’m sad to read such a poor review of the new Blake exhibition here in Cambridge. I’ll go with an open mind, and memories of mind expanding exhibitions at the Ashmolean & the Tate that opened B up exponentially: @BlakeanTweets amp.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2…

Reading Joseph Campbell in preparation for a storytelling retreat into deep mythic time next week, led by @ericmaddern & Hugh Lupton, I stumble upon this great quote by Blake which seems to resonate with the tragic events of this week: @FindingBlake
New on our blog: @sky_larking reviews recent books on 'Jerusalem', from @Blake2_0 and Edwin John Lerner, exploring Blake's work as story & mental fight. "I love that two books on this deep subject arrive at roughly the same time. Hopefully, more to come." wp.me/p9AtwV-y8
WILLIAM BLAKE AND FAIRIES🧵 In 1802, after moving to Felpham, William Blake wrote that trees and fields around his cottage were “full of Fairy elves.” This illustration for Milton L’Allegro V appears to be his Felpham cottage, with Queen Mab, Fairies, and a Goblin #FolkloreSunday
