Flexible design : revisionary poetics in Blake's Vala or The four Zoas
Pierce, John Benjamin, Blake, William
Vala or "The Four Zoas" is one of Blake's few surviving manuscripts and affords an opportunity to examine a significant evolution in his poetic practice. While the poem itself exhibits a consistent thematic interest, the modes and methods of representing these interests underwent a radical change in the ten or more years in which Blake wrote and reworked the poem. This text offers an extended and detailed treatment of the gradual shift that took place in Blake's poetics during the composition, transcription and revision of "Vala" or "The Four Zoas"
