At every stage, Blake's writing confronts the central problem of all politically minded literature: how texts can become action. Yet he presents us with no single or, indeed, conclusive answer to this question and in this sense it can be said that he fails. Blake, however, never stopped searching for a way that prophecy might be made to live up to its promise in the present. The twentieth-century hermeneuticist Paul Ricoeur shared with Blake a preoccupation with the relationship between time, text and action. Ricoeur's hermeneutics thus provide a fresh theoretical framework through which to analyse Blake's attempts to fulfil his prophetic purpose. 001437182 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLInk, viewed June 9, 2021). 001437182 60010 $$aBlake, William,$$d1757-1827. 001437182 650_0 $$aProphecy in literature. 001437182 650_6 $$aProphétie dans la littérature. 001437182 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001437182 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aCogan, Lucy.$$tBlake and the Failure of Prophecy.$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG, ©2021$$z9783030676872 001437182 852__ $$bebk 001437182 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-67688-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001437182 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1437182$$pGLOBAL_SET 001437182 980__ $$aBIB 001437182 980__ $$aEBOOK 001437182 982__ $$aEbook 001437182 983__ $$aOnline 001437182 994__ $$a92$$bISE
