During William Blake's lifetime (1757-1827), significant events included the American Revolution (1775-1783), which inspired ideas of liberty and individual rights, and the French Revolution (1789-1799), which influenced his views on social justice and equality. The Industrial Revolution also began in this period, transforming society and labor conditions, which Blake critiqued in his works. Additionally, the Romantic movement emerged, emphasizing emotion and nature, aligning with Blake's artistic and philosophical ideals.
