(Left: Portrait of Newton, 1795, by William Blake)

William Blake was critical of the kind of thinking that Newton embodied – the linear, analytic, systematic, methodical problem solver, who reasons from a “posture of certainty” that nature is understandable (see Terri Irwin's work). It is like dissecting a pocket watch in order to answer the question How does time work?; this thinking reduces the magic of the world around us to a series of gears set in motion for no particular reason. In this work, Blake reacted against “disciplined reasoning” and “asserted his belief in the supremacy of the creative imagination” [link].
