[Milton-L] Blake and SA

[Erick Ramalho]

Well, it seems to me the relation suggested lies only on the inscription attached to Blake's working on the theme of Albion. I´d suggest a look at:

  The character in Blake who most reminds me of Milton's Samson is
Tiriel, but even here correspondences aren't exact. Blake executed a
few illustrations of Tiriel although this was not an illuminated work.
The only works of Milton's Blake illustrated (that I know of offhand)
are Paradise Lost, Il Penseroso, and L'Allegro. Bentley has a large
catalog of Blake's works, however, that you could refer to for more
information -- Blake books: annotated catalogues of William Blake's
writings in illuminated printing, in conventional typography and in
manuscript, and reprints thereof, reproductions of his designs, books
with his engravings, catalogues, books he owned, and scholarly and
critical works about him (ISBN: 0198181515).

I wasn't aware of a connection between Glad Day and Milton's SA
either. I'm very interested in hearing an argument for that
connection.
