Blake

The Tyger” is a poem by the English poet William Blake, published in 1794 as part of his Songs of Experience collection and rising to prominence in the romantic period. The poem is one of the most anthologised in the English literary canon,[1] and has been the subject of both literary criticism and many adaptations, including various musical versions.[2] The poem explores and questions Christian religious paradigms prevalent in late 18th century and early 19th century England, discussing God’s intention and motivation for creating both the tiger and the Lamb.[3]
