What issues does the Blake archive suggest?
Welcome to the William Blake Archive http://www.iath.virginia.edu/blake/
"A free site on the World Wide Web since 1996, the William Blake Archive was conceived as an international public resource that would provide unified access to major works of visual and literary art that are highly disparate, widely dispersed, and increasingly difficult to gain access to as a result of their value, rarity, and extreme fragility. Currently eight American and British institutions and one major private collector have given the Archive permission to include thousands of Blake's images and texts without fees. Negotiations with additional institutions are underway. As of this writing, the Archive contains fully searchable and scalable electronic editions of 39 copies of 18 of Blake's 19 illuminated books in the context of full bibliographic information about each work, painstaking diplomatic transcriptions of all texts, detailed descriptions of all images, and extensive bibliographies. When the longest illuminated book, Jerusalem (100 plates), appears, the Archive will contain at least one copy of every illuminated book printed by Blake and multiple copies of most. It will also feature a searchable new electronic version of David V. Erdman's Complete Poetry and Prose of William Blake, the standard printed edition for reference, and detailed hand-lists documenting the complete Blake holdings of the collections from which the contents are drawn. At this point we will then turn our attention to Blake's prodigious work outside the illuminated canon, notably watercolor and tempera paintings, drawings, individual engravings, and commercial book illustrations, as well as manuscripts, letters, and typographic materials. We anticipate that the full Archive will contain approximately 3,000 images."
