The Tyger (Annotated) book cover

The Tyger (Annotated)

William Blake

A timeless poem by legendary poet and artist William Blake, The Tyger (Annotated) explores the Christian religious paradigms of late 18th and early 19th century England. Originally published in 1794, the work has been subject to literary criticism and has inspired various adaptions, including musical versions. Blake's commentary on God's creation, motivation and intention for the tiger and the lamb is captivating and introspective. Blake's work is widely considered to be significant in the history of poetry and the visual arts.
