In what form did William Blake express his ideas?

  1. Art

  2. Music

  3. Poetry

  4. Theater

The correct answer is: Poetry

William Blake is known for expressing his ideas primarily through his poetry. While he was also an artist and musician, his poetry was the main medium through which he conveyed his thoughts and beliefs. This does not mean that his art and music were not important to his overall expression, but they were not the primary form he used for this purpose. Similarly, while he did create some works for the theater, it was not the main platform for his ideas, making option D an incorrect choice as well. Option A could be seen as partially correct, as Blake's poetry often incorporated his own illustrations, but overall poetry is the most accurate answer. Option B, music, is not mentioned at all in relation to Blake's expression of ideas, making it the least likely choice.
