Summary:

Discusses the life and artistic achievement of William Blake, the great English artist, poet, and mystic who sought to rid the world of hypocrisy and to release men, women, and children from the "mind-forged manacles" that chain them to walls of ignorance, disease, and poverty. Features college professor, poet and author Jack Ramey, who examines Blake's role in English literature. Through his oral interpretations of the poems, captures not only the power of the spiritual world that shines through Blake's poetry, but also the indignation that Blake felt about the social injustices of his day -- injustices that still plague our world today.
