摘要

1986年，威廉·w·希斯宣布为阿默斯特学院的米德艺术博物馆获得了一件最令人兴奋的藏品，这是k·弗兰克·奥斯汀博士和夫人(1950届毕业生)的礼物:布莱克的《约伯记插图》(1826年)的副本，这本书早在20世纪就为人所知，但多年来一直下落不明。它的铭文很容易辨认:“这件作品既天才又奢侈，是阿米莉亚·奥佩送给她的朋友大卫的礼物，他自己的天才将使他珍视前者，而他出色的品味使他无法模仿后者-巴黎- 4me Mo 22me 1831”。

“Remarkable both for Genius, & Extravagance”: Amelia Opie and Blake’s Illustrations of the Book of Job

In 1986 William W. Heath announced a most exciting acquisition for the Mead Art Museum at Amherst College, the gift of Dr. and Mrs. K. Frank Austen (class of 1950): a copy of Blake’s Illustrations of the Book of Job (1826) that had been known earlier in the twentieth century but whose location had proved elusive for a number of years. It is readily identifiable by its inscription: “This work remarkable both for Genius, & Extravagance, is the gift of Amelia Opie to her friend David, whose own genius will make him prize the former, while his excellent Taste makes it impossible for him to imitate the latter—Paris—4me Mo 22me 1831”.

期刊介绍： Blake/An Illustrated Quarterly was born as the Blake Newsletter on a mimeograph machine at the University of California, Berkeley in 1967. Edited by Morton D. Paley, the first issue ran to nine pages, was available for a yearly subscription rate of two dollars for four issues, and included the fateful words, "As far as editorial policy is concerned, I think the Newsletter should be just that—not an incipient journal." The production office of the Newsletter relocated to the University of New Mexico when Morris Eaves became co-editor in 1970, and then moved with him in 1986 to its present home at the University of Rochester.
