Una isla en la luna es una obra satírica de William Blake que consiste en una serie de diálogos y canciones que parodian las conversaciones de la burguesía en los círculos literarios y musicales de Londres a finales del siglo XVIII. A través de estas interacciones, Blake aborda temas profundos como la educación infantil, la ciencia moderna, las relaciones de género, la moda y la religión. Esta edición de Antígona presenta una mirada fascinante a las críticas sociales del autor, utilizando el humor y la parodia para exponer las pretensiones de la sociedad de su época. Es una pieza clave para entender el desarrollo del pensamiento crítico y artístico de uno de los poetas más influyentes de la literatura inglesa.

William Blake was an English poet, painter and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his life, Blake has become a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual art of the Romantic Age. What he called his "prophetic works" were said by the 20th-century critic Northrop Frye to form "what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language". While he lived in London his entire life, except for three years spent in Felpham, he produced a diverse and symbolically rich collection of works, which embraced the imagination as "the body of God", or "human existence itself".
