How should we perceive children? Are children born with sin as the Calvinists believed? Do infants retain a memory of God as some Romantics believed? Are children, as Rousseau taught, naturally good with an innate ability to learn?
In these two poems we will explore how William Blake, a Romantic poet, gave voice to the voiceless infants.
We will also discuss why these poems are useless by themselves but profound within the context of The Songs of Innocence and Experience.
