Jerusalem: William Blake's Illuminated Book

Blakes illustrated books are fantastic, but seeing them is not always easy. This app gives us access to high res reproductions of the writing and illustration - if you are curious about what these books really look like, this app gets close. You can zoom in very close on details to get a really good look! The inclusion of typeset versions of all the poems is great too - I can’t recommend this highly enough, for artists, writers, diarists, anyone with an interest in books and illumination. I hope we’ll start to see more of these kind of apps.

Title says it all. Thank you for this wonderful vehicle for exploring Blake’s amazing Jerusalem, but please add a search feature so that we can easily locate favorite passages when we cannot recall where they are, but can recall some key words in the passages, or a phrase or line we can recall, and want/need to see again the full original context, to review it. Thank you.

A fantastic adaption of this mystic book. Recommended download.

I'm glad to have it

Very well done. The images are high enough quality to allow reading of the text of the work itself from the images as well as allowing enjoyment of the details of Blake's artwork. In cases where the original text is difficult to read, the app allows a nice quick toggle to typed text. Very easy to toggle back and forth...so seamless. Please do more of Blake's works like this.
