William Blake, Catherine Boucher Blake, Gerald Massey, Henry Wallace Phillips, George C. Thomas, Harry Elkins Widener
A notable lyrical work, *Songs of Innocence and Experience*, investigates the "Two Contrary States of the Human Soul." Blake juxtaposes the world of youth, innocence, and nature with the darker features of industrialization, social injustice, and adult dissatisfaction. This work is a visionary critique of 18th-century England's ecclesiastical and political systems.
