À propos de cet audio

The Book of Urizen stands as one of the key prophetic works of the renowned English poet William Blake, featuring his own intricate illustrations. Initially published in 1794 as The First Book of Urizen, later editions dropped the term first. This profound work derives its title from Urizen, a character in Blakes unique mythology who embodies the concept of alienated reason, often seen as a source of oppression. Within the narrative, Urizen is depicted as the primeval priest, illustrating his separation from the other Eternals to forge an oppressive realm defined by religious dogma. In a daring act of creation, Los and Enitharmon carve out a space within Urizens fallen universe to bring forth their son, Orc—the embodiment of revolution and freedom. The first four sons of Urizen—Thiriel, Utha, Grodna, and Fuzon—represent elemental forces of Air, Water, Earth, and Fire, respectively, as noted in Chapter VIII. Of particular note, Fuzon plays a pivotal role in Blakes subsequent work, The Book of Ahania, published the following year. (Summary from Wikipedia)Copyright International Ambient Sounds
