Hutchings, Kevin
- Abstract
The article discusses the complex problem about political resistance in the poem of poet William Blake, entitled "Visions of the Daughters of Albion." It mentions that literary critics Donald Worster and Michel Foucault had aimed to expose and deconstruct the ideology of devaluing the nature of a human being within the poem. It states that the protagonist of the poem, Oothoon, had attempted to refute the dualisms that had supported pastoral technology.
