Fearful Symmetry: A Study of William Blake is a 1947 book by Canadian literary critic Northrop Frye whose subject is the work of English poet and visual artist William Blake.
 The book has been hailed as one of the most important contributions to the study of William Blake and one of the very first that embarked on the interpretation of many of Blake's most obscure works.
 As Frye himself acknowledges, Blake's work is not to be deciphered but interpreted and seen within its specific historical and social contexts.

Just Another Pandora's Box, also known as Once Upon a Chinese Classic, is a 2010 Hong Kong parody film directed by Jeffrey Lau, starring Ronald Cheng, Gigi Leung, Betty Sun, Eric Tsang, Huang Bo, Guo Degang, Gillian Chung, and Patrick Tam.
 It is a spiritual successor to Lau's two-part 1995 film "A Chinese Odyssey".
 Athena Chu, who starred in "A Chinese Odyssey", makes a guest appearance in "Just Another Pandora's Box".
The Ancient of Days is a design by William Blake, originally published as the frontispiece to a 1794 work, "Europe a Prophecy".
 It draws its name from one of God's titles in the Book of Daniel and shows Urizen crouching in a circular design with a cloud-like background.
 His outstretched hand holds a compass over the darker void below.
 Related imagery appears in Blake's "Newton", completed the next year.
 As noted in Gilchrist's "Life of William Blake", the design of "The Ancient of Days" was "a singular favourite with Blake and as one it was always a happiness to him to copy."
 As such there are many versions of the work extant, including one completed for Frederick Tatham only weeks before Blake's death.
Auguries of Innocence is a poetry collection by Patti Smith, published in 2005.
 This collection of poetry includes exactly twenty-six recent poems penned by the active, contemporary poet.
 Drawing on some of her many influences such as William Blake and Arthur Rimbaud, Smith's collection here demonstrates over and over again her knack for detail.
 Obviously William Blake is a dominant influence on the poet herself, since it shares its title, Auguries of Innocence, with one of William Blake's poems.
 Upon reviewing both collections it is clearly obvious that both collections share more commonalities than just similar titles.
 One commonality between this collection and that by Blake's, in regard to the content, is that the poems collected here exhibit subtle nods to Blake.
 For example, in one of her poems, "The Long Road", by the end of the very first verse the reader has already been exposed to such suggestive visuals as the speaker of the poem sleeping in chimneys and chewing on bulbs, as well as the speaker "sweeping time".
 Such visuals of Smith's conjure up recollections in the seasoned and experienced reader's mind of Blake's "The Chimney Sweeper" and "The Blossom".
 While the majority of the twenty-six collected poems have some type of stanza-like arrangement the poet also incorporates several free-verse style poems into the collection, such as Mummer Love, Eve of All Saints, Our Jargon Muffles The Drum, and Written By A Lake.
Tiriel is a narrative poem by William Blake, written "c."1789.
 Considered the first of his prophetic books, it is also the first poem in which Blake used free septenaries, which he would go on to use in much of his later verse.
 "Tiriel" was unpublished during Blake's lifetime and remained so until 1874, when it appeared in William Michael Rossetti's "Poetical Works of William Blake".
 Although Blake did not engrave the poem, he did make twelve sepia drawings to accompany the rough and unfinished manuscript, although three of them are considered lost as they have not been traced since 1863.
