Bundock, Romantic Prophecy and the Resistance to Historicism	2019		.htm	application/xhtml+xml	1832	93	53	He cites Alexander Gilchrist, who complains in his 1863 Life of William Blake that America a Prophecy “has no distinctly seizable pretensions to a prophetic character, being, like the rest of Blake’s ‘Books of Prophecy,’ rather a retrospect, in its mystic way, of events already transpired” (quoted in Bundock 169). Because Bundock reconfigures the manner in which scholars have traditionally thought about prophecy, as both a literary mode and a form of mystic insight, his Blake chapters offer a trenchant reconsideration of Blake’s prophetic writings.	cache/blake-228.htm	txt/blake-228.txt
