O conceito de alma na poesia romântica inglesa

In our materialistic world, where everyone avoids suffering, we seem to need the help of romantic poets, such as William Blake and John Keats, who make us see beauty everywhere. Our choice is also justified because they both share an interest for the concept of soul and for the more subjective and irrational aspects of human nature, such as emotion, imagination and introspection. Blake stands out because he is a fundamental figure in the history of poetry and visual arts and, from his work, we will mainly focus Songs of Innocence and Experience to which the poet-artist attributed the subtitle Showing the Two Contrary Statesof Human Soul, thus warning his readers that he would analyze the concept of soul in which he thought there were "necessary oppositions".
