CONTRIBUTORS
SHELLEY M. BENNETT, Associate Curator of British Art, Henry E. Huntington Library and Art Gallery, San Marino, California, publishes on various aspects of British art, particularly eighteenth century book illustration.
JAMES BOGAN is an Associate Professor of Art & Film at the University of Missouri-Rolla. With Les Blank he has recently co-edited Burden of Dreams (North Atlantic Books), a casebook on the film which features Werner Herzog and the Amazon River.
D.W. DÖRRBECKER, who teaches art history at the University of Trier in West Germany, is presently conducting a course on the etchings of Rembrandt. He feels that—by way of contrast—even this can be helpful for one’s attempt to understand the peculiarities of Blake’s graphic style.
MICHAEL FISCHER is an Associate Professor of English at the University of New Mexico. He is the author of Does Deconstruction Make Any Difference? (Indiana University Press) and co-editor (with Morris Eaves) of Romanticism and Contemporary Criticism (forthcoming, Cornell University Press).
CHRISTOPHER FOX teaches English at Wilkes College, edited Psychology and Literature in the 18th Century (AMS Press, forthcoming), and authored “Locke and the Scriblerians: The Discussion of Identity in Early Eighteenth-Century England,” which placed third and received an honorable mention for the James L. Clifford Prize (1982-83).
JOHN E. GRANT, Professor of English at the University of Iowa, is co-editor of the Norton Critical Edition Blake’s Poetry and Designs and author of numerous articles on Blake’s work.
W.J.T. MITCHELL is the author of Blake’s Composite Art and has edited several volumes of essays, including The Language of Images and The Politics of Interpretation. He is the editor of Critical Inquiry and Professor of English and Art and Design at the University of Chicago. His new book, Iconology: Image, Text, Ideology, will be published later this year.
MORTON D. PALEY’s latest book is The Continuing City: William Blake’s Jerusalem, published by Oxford University Press. He is now completing a study of the Apocalyptic Sublime in British art.
