With the introduction of facsimile editions and more particularly, the William Blake Archive, the largest digital repository of Blake materials online, scholars have been able to access Blake’s work in as close its original medium, leading to important insights into Blake’s creative process and mythopoetic system. Recent advancements in digital editing and reproduction has further increased interest in Blake’s manuscripts. This volume brings together both established Blake scholars, including G.E. Bentley Jnr’s final essay on Blake, and upcoming scholars whose research is at the intersection of digital humanities, critical theory, textual scholarship, queer theory, transgender studies, reception history, and bibliographical studies. The chapters seek to cover the breadth of Blake’s manuscripts: poetry, letters, notebook entries, and annotations. Together, these chapters offer an overview of the current state of research in Blake studies on manuscripts at a point when his manuscripts have become increasingly available in digital environments, and gesture to a possible future of Blake scholarship in general. 0aLiterature, Modernx18th century.975060 0aLiterature, Modernx19th century. 0aPoetry.966137 0aBooksxHistory.96635314aEighteenth-Century Literature.97506124aNineteenth-Century Literature.24aPoetry and Poetics.96614124aHistory of the Book.9663571 aCrosby, Mark.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9750621 aMcQuail, Josephine A.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9750632 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303147435408iPrinted edition:z978303147437808iPrinted edition:z978303147438540uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-47436-1  aZDB-2-LCM  aZDB-2-SXL  c59087d59087
