Songs of Innocence and of Experience compiles two contrasting but directly related books of poetry by William Blake. Songs of Innocence honors and praises the natural world, the natural innocence of children and their close relationship to God. Songs of Experience contains much darker, disillusioned poems, which deal with serious, often political themes. It is believed that the disastrous end to the French Revolution produced this disillusionment in Blake. He does, however, maintain that true innocence is achieved only through experience.

"The Song of Innocence and Experience" is a collection of illustrated poems by William Blake. It appeared in two stages: In 1789, Blake himself printed and printed some of the first copies; five years later, he combined these poems with a new set of poems, whose volumes were titled "Song of Innocence" and "Showing The experience of two opposite states of the human soul. Blake was also a painter before creating "Song of Innocence and Experience", having painted Oberon, Titania and Puck dancing with fairies."Innocence" and "experience" are the definitions of consciousness, which rethink Milton's "heaven" and "autumn" mythological states of existence. Usually, the interpretation of this collection revolves around the dualism of mythology, where "innocence" stands for "fallen world" and "experience" stands for "fallen world".
