This podcast is aimed at a non-specialist audience interested in acquiring what Northrop Frye called, in the title of one of his books, an educated imagination. Its materials are drawn from the many courses in literature and mythology that I taught, combined with material from my book The Productions of Time, for which I hope the podcast may provide an accessible introduction, with concrete examples.

Episode 228: Blake’s Psychological and Epistemological Interpretation of the Fall. The Cosmic Man Albion Falls into the Illusion of the Subject/Object Split, the “Cloven Fiction.” Why Did Albion Fall?
Blake interprets the Fall into our suffering world psychologically and epistemologically rather than morally. The Fall was into the illusion of the subject-object split, or “cloven fiction.” The cosmic being Albion, who united all being and beings, fell, and therefore we are living in an illusion that we take for real. The imagination tries to awaken us, and thereby awaken Albion.
