Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Bristol (Faculty of Arts), course: Literature 3 - 1700 to 1830, language: English, abstract: The work addresses the representation of the child through selected works from Blake's Songs of Innocence and of Experience. As a poet of unknown value during his lifetime, William Blake remains an exceptional writer of the early Romantics. Blake was not only exceptional for his devotion for an aesthetic form of his illuminated poems but he was also unique for his strong concentration of thought. In contrast to the Enlightenment thinkers, John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau reconsidered the special stage of childhood. It was the great influence of Rousseau’s image of the child, not seen as a small adult but as a human being in its own entity and of natural innocence, which induced Blake to write his Songs of Innocence (1789) and its counterpart Songs of Experience (1794) a few years later.

Songs of Innocence and of Experience compiles two contrasting but directly related books of poetry by William Blake. Songs of Innocence honors and praises the natural world, the natural innocence of children and their close relationship to God. Songs of Experience contains much darker, disillusioned poems, which deal with serious, often political themes. It is believed that the disastrous end to the French Revolution produced this disillusionment in Blake. He does, however, maintain that true innocence is achieved only through experience.

William Blake published his second collection of poetry, Songs of Innocence, in 1789. He published it with the accompanying illustrative plates, a feat accomplished through an engraving and illustrating process of his own design. The publication of Songs of Innocence began his series of "Illuminated Books," in which Blake combined text and visual artwork to achieve his poetic effect. Blake always intended the poems of Songs of Innocence to be accompanied by their respective illustrations, making analysis of the texts alone problematic at times. While ostensibly about the naivety and simplicity of innocent youth, Songs of Innocence is not merely a collection of verses for children. Several of the poems include an ironic tone, and some, such as "The Chimney Sweeper," imply sharp criticism of the society of Blake's time. Although clearly intended as a celebration of children and of their unadulterated enjoyment of the world around them, Songs of Innocence is also a warning to adult readers. Innocence has been lost not simply through aging, but because the forces of culture have allowed a hope-crushing society to flourish, sometimes at the direct expense of children's souls.
