For Blake, humanity can restore her ideal Self and becomeOne with God if she activates the Logos residing in her heart. Focusing on Jerusalem: The Emanation of the Giant Albion,this article discusses Blake’s view on the essence of God that makes humanity’stheosis (deification) possible. Also, the definition and function of Blake’sUrizen/Reason in the process of human perfection are examined, withillustrations from Blake’s Marginalia and “The Marriage of Heaven andHell.” KW - blake KW - reason KW - Imagination KW - Love KW - Panentheism N2 - Blake, insani aşkı ve yaratıcılığıinsanın mükemmel hali (Cennetvari Hal) ve cisimlenmiş Logos (Tarının Kelamı)ile ilişkilendirir.
