nThe Marriage of Heaven and Hell by William Blake. The Marriage of Heaven and Hell is a book by the English poet and printmaker William Blake. It is a series of texts written in imitation of biblical prophecy but expressing Blakes own intensely personal Romantic and revolutionary beliefs. Unlike that of Milton or Dante, Blakes conception of Hell begins not as a place of punishment, but as a source of unrepressed, somewhat Dionysian energy, opposed to the authoritarian and regulated perception of Heaven. Blakes purpose is to create what he called a memorable fancy in order to reveal the repressive nature of conventional morality and institutional religion, which he describes thus: The ancient Poets animated all sensible objects with Gods or Geniuses, calling them by the names and adorning them with the properties of woods, rivers, mountains, lakes, cities, nations, and whatever their enlarged & numerous senses could perceive.
