    William Blake's The Everlasting Gospel
    Mar 27 2025

    While less well known than some of Blake's other longer lyrics such as Auguries of Innocence, The Everlasting Gospel does contain some of his most famous, or even infamous, lines. One of the most radical poems by one of the most radical of artists, this work throws traditional Christianity upside down and considers Christ's doctrine as the escape from moral law and the fulfilment of a new testimony of human divinity. Narrated by Jason Whittaker.

    William Blake's epic poem America a Prophecy introduces two of his most enduring characters, Orc and Urizen, who fight each other as the spirits of revolution and oppression in the American War of Independence. One of Blake's best known works, it is also one of the best examples of his prophetic style combined with a narrative retelling of one of the most famous events in history.
