Dustwrapper protected in a removable clear plastic sleeve. The first complete facsimile of Vala, or The Four Zoas, a prophetic work begun by Blake in 1797, in the wake of his immense series of illustrations for Edward Young's poem Night Thoughts; indeed, Vala was written on proof pages for Night Thoughts. 'Like Young's poem, Blake's is divided into "Nights" and treats some of the same vast subjectsâ"life, death, immortality' (ODNB). This scope was echoed in the physical and temporal scale of the work: Blake used larger plates than ever before, at 41x32 cm, and continued work on the epic for ten years, before finally leaving it unfinished in 1807, with the poem in a manuscript draft. Bentley's life-size b/w facsimile includes a transcription, an extensive critical study of the poemâs 'growth and significance', and tables of contents and physical details (lines reused elsewhere, watermarks, etc.); it remains the only facsimile publication. Northrop Frye wrote that '(t)here is nothing like the colossal explosion of creative power in the Ninth Night of The Four Zoas anywhere else in English poetry'; the work as a whole, he says, 'a cyclic vision of life from the Fall to the Last Judgment' is 'in a single form the totality of what Blake came into the world to say' (Fearful Symmetry, pp. 305, 269).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. xviii, 220, 145 [manuscript plates] pp. Light grey-brown hardback with a cursive gilt title to front and gilt lettering to spine. Illustrated brown paper dust jacket protected by Melinex. In a custom-made brown slip-shoe. Not price clipped. Some light speckled loss of colour to top of front board and spine. Light bumping to spine ends. Jacket has been repaired for tears and losses and lined with a heavyweight Japanese paper. Both boards and jacket are generally clean. There is minimal creasing to the jacket joints. Internally clean and bright. This is the first complete facsimile of Vala, what Northrop Frye has called 'the greatest abortive masterpiece in English literature'. Provides a thorough transcript and study of the poem with its ninety illustrations. Through this vigorous examination, Bentley concludes that the poem's poor critical appraisal has been misguided due to a lack of understanding of the complexities of the original manuscript. A fine volume, giving space to Blake's extraordinary talent as both illustrator and poet. This is a heavy item and may require additional postage if being shipped outside of Europe.
