The Contra-Diction of Design: Blake's Illustrations to Gray's "Ode on the Death of a Favourite Cat."
Peer reviewedLussier, Mark – Visible Language, 1989
Argues that William Blake's illustrations for Thomas Gray's "Ode on the Death of a Favourite Cat" testify to the contradictions in Gray's poetry. States that Blake's designs offer another language, a contra-diction, that deconstructs Gray's conscious discourse and liberates his unconscious discourse. (RS)
