William Blake was critical of the form of thinking that Newton embodied – the linear, analytic, systematic, methodical work solver, who reasons from a “posture of certainty” that nature is understandable (see Terri Irwin's work). It is similar dissecting a steal sentinel inwards social club to answer the enquiry How does fourth dimension work?; this thinking reduces the magic of the globe to a greater extent than or less us to a serial of gears develop inwards displace for no item reason. In this work, Blake reacted against “disciplined reasoning” together with “asserted his belief inwards the supremacy of the creative imagination” [link].
