Economics is a diverse science that incorporates all aspects of life. Economics has the ability to explain social, cultural, political and religious behaviours and attitudes of people in an economic context that aims at maximising their welfare. Therefore, economics is inseparable from all other sciences and arts specially those that explain human behaviour. Economic forces cannot explicitly explain how the world operates, instead culture, tradition and social settings are very strong forces that have to be incorporated for a comprehensive realistic analysis of the issue at hand.
William Blake and International Economics
Unappreciated in his life, William Blake is an artist who is perceived afterwards as Britain’s greatest revolutionary artist where his contributions have extended to influence and inspire others in vast areas of specialisation other than his local sphere of art and literature.
Blake's Prophetic Books combine poetry, vision, prophecy, and original thought. They include The Book of Thel (1789), The Marriage of Heaven and Hell (c.1790), The French Revolution (1791), America (1793), Europe (1794), The Book of Urizon (1794), The Book of Los (1795), Milton (1804-8), and Jerusalem (1804-20). These truly comprise a vision of the whole of human life, in which energy and imagination struggle with the forces of both physical and mental constraints. Blake uses love, anger, religion and philosophy to justify the political and economic inequities that he whereupon warns about the Industrial Revolution.

Another aspect that is pointed out by Pigou (The Foreign Exchange, 1992) is the choice of price indexes and how it varies greatly in the results. He added that Some indexes out a heavy weight on internationally traded commodities whereas other indexes weigh domestic and international commodities at their respective weight inside the country.
In spite of the drawbacks and criticisms directed to this theory, it still remains to be the first theory that attempts to approximate the equilibrium rate of exchange rate between countries.
William Blake’s writing style was a product of the Romantic Era in which people were more concerned with emotions than reason. This era embodied society’s desire to
The real exchange rate tells us the rate at which we can trade the goods of one country for goods from other countries. The real exchange rate some- times referred to as the terms of trade. To view the exchange rate relationship in real terms using the nominal exchange rate, can be taken samples h a goods produced in some countries, such as cars. Suppose the price of the car with 25,000 dollars, while the price of Japanese cars is 4,000,000 yen . To compare the prices of both cars , we have to transform them into a common currency. If one dollar worth of 80 yen , the price of cars Americans to 80 x 25,000, or 2,000,000 yen. By comparing the price of an American car (2,000,000 yen) and the price of Japanese cars (4,000,000 yen), it can be concluded that the price of the American car is half the price of Japanese cars . In other words, pad a price effect we can swap two American cars to get a Japanese car . Peng count can be written as
The theme of the suffering innocent person, dying and being diseased, throws a dark light onto the London seen through the eyes of William Blake. He shows us his experiences, fears and hopes with passionate images and metaphors creating a sensibility against oppression hypocrisy. His words come alive and ask for changes in society, government and church. But they remind us also that the continued renewal of society begins with new ideas, imagination and new works in every area of human experience.
William Blake, was born in 1757 and died in 1827, created the poems “The Lamb,” “The Tyger,” and Proverbs of Hell. Blake grew up in a poor environment. He studied to become an Engraver and a professional artist. His engraving took part in the Romanticism era. The Romanticism is a movement that developed during the 18th and early 19th century as a reaction against the Restoration and Enlightenment periods focuses on logic and reason. Blake’s poetry would focus on imagination. When Blake created his work, it gained very little attention. Blake’s artistic and poetic vision consists in his creations. Blake was against the Church of England because he thought the doctrines were being misused as a form of social control, it meant the people were taught to be passively obedient and accept oppression, poverty, and inequality. In Blake’s poems “The Lamb,” “The Tyger,” and Proverbs of Hell, he shows that good requires evil in order to exist through imagery animals and man.
The stability of currency values plays a significant role for economic and financial stability. It is not difficult to see the exchange rate fluctuations are widely regarded as damaging. As the movements of the exchange rate have significant and large effects on the trade balance, resource allocation, domestic prices, interest rate, national income and other key economic variables. Then can exchange rate movements be predicted by these fundamental economic variables?

On November 28, 1757 in the large bustling town of London, England; James and Catherine Blake welcomed their son William Blake into the world (Paananen xix-xxi). A happy and powerfully imaginative child, William was one of five (Bedard 8-14). Contrary to what his linguistic talents may dictate he received no formal education, due to his parents’ intense religious beliefs and hesitations to branch beyond their sect, in regards to education (Bedard 8-14). William was however taught basic reading and writing skills by his mother (Bedard 8-14). At the age of ten he was enrolled in the Paris Drawing School where he learned the basics of drawing (Bedard 8-14). Many years later on August 18, 1782 he married Catherine Boucher, an uneducated maid (Bedard 8-14). Though a seemingly unlikely couple, they remained faithful to each other until William’s death on August 12, 1827 (Paananen xix-xxi).

William Blake was an English romantic poet who lived from 1757 to 1827 through both the American and the French revolutions. Although he lived during the Romantic Age, and was clearly part of the movement, Blake was a modern thinker who had a rebellious political spirit. He was the first to turn poetry and art into sociopolitical weapons to be raised rebelliously against the establishment. His poetry exemplified many of the same topics being discussed today. Although he was known as both a madman and a mystic, (Elliott) his poetry is both relevant and radical. He employed a brilliant approach as he took in the uncomfortable political and moral topics of his day and from them he created unique artistic representations. His poetry recounts in symbolic allegory the negative effects of the French and American revolutions and his visual art portrays the violence and sadistic nature of slavery. Blake was arguably one of the most stubbornly anti-oppression and anti-establishment writers in the English canon.
Blake was considered a social critic of his own time and often thought of himself as a prophet. His criticism was a reflection of his own country and of an era in time that...

When examining these exchange rates it is important to note that their two distinct types of rates used for global trade: nominal and real.
