“Half Friendship is the bitterest Enmity”
William Blake
Jerusalem: The Emanation of The Giant Albion (Primary source)
Jerusalem: The Emanation of The Giant Albion (1804-1820) is William Blake’s epic, illuminated poem and one of his most ambitious and complex works. It explores the fall and potential redemption of Albion, a mythic personification of England and humanity itself. Albion’s fragmentation—symbolizing the spiritual and moral decay of society—is mirrored in the suffering of his “Emanation,” Jerusalem, who represents divine love, creativity, and the collective soul of humanity.
