{"product_id":"narrative-unbound-donald-ault-9780882680118","title":"Narrative Unbound: Re-Visioning William Blake's the Four Zoas","description":"Narrative Unbound is the first full-scale interpretation of the verbal text of Blake's most complex long poetic prophecy, The Four Zoas. Never engraved or published in the poet\/artist's lifetime, the poem remains in a single manuscript, apparently unfinished and heavily revised, and yet is widely celebrated as one of Blake's most powerful narrative works. Ault challenges the view that the poem is intrinsically incomplete and flawed, arguing instead that the famous difficulties of the text are aspects of Blake's transformative narrative strategies. By respecting the integrity of Blake's work, taking every written mark on the page as potentially functional, Ault shows how the intricate interweaving of narrative patterns and interruptions are instrumental to conscious reading. The poetic intent is nothing less than a complete renovation of the reading experience, the potential of which is the realization of what Blake has called Four-fold vision. Ault's approach serves as a guide both to reading The Four Zoas and to participating in a radical poetic method.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donald Ault\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0882680110\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780882680118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Station Hill Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.41h x 7.45w x 1.68d","brand":"Donald Ault","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49096782872831,"sku":"9780882680118","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/narrative-unbound-donald-ault-9780882680118","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
