一粒沙中看世界,一朵野花见天堂。
将无垠,握在手中,见永恒,于一瞬间。
─威廉·布莱克

The World in a Poet's Words
Like the grain of sand, one can see worlds in a few short lines written by William Blake (1757-1827). The English poet is known for his concise, controlled lines and expansive metaphors. The lines in Blake's poetry do not just lead to other words in the poem, but to concepts and ideas far beyond the page.
The imagery Blake evokes is not simply poetic. An accomplished engraver, Blake illustrated, by hand, many volumes of his writing. The pictures are an integral part of Blake's artistic vision, adding further color and scope to his highly developed sense of metaphor.
正如这首诗的标题"一粒沙中看世界",透过威廉·布莱克简短的诗句,我们得以一观浩瀚天地。这位英国诗人以简洁严谨的文字和丰富的隐喻著称。他的作品不仅前后呼应,字里行间更屡屡可见弦外之音。布莱克唤起的意象不只是简单的诗句。作为一名娴熟的雕刻师,布莱克亲自为他的大部分作品绘上插图。这些图画是布莱克艺术想像中不可缺少的一环,为他美妙绝伦的隐喻手法增添瑰丽色彩,带给读者无限的想像空间。
