Yale Center for British Art Jerusalem Plate 2 |
Blake's epic poem Jerusalem delights the senses, stimulates the mind, and enriches the spirit. A group of scholars and students challenged themselves to read straight though the poem taking the parts of various characters. The reading was reported on by Suzanne Skyler in Blake/ An Illustrated Quaterly.
The event was not performed for an audience or recorded for posterity. However there have been recordings made of readings of Jerusalem which are available on youTube. This version is presented by LibriVox .
