William Blake, the 18th-century English poet and artist, is mentioned in the Epstein documents primarily in contextual or literary references rather than direct involvement. His appearances are largely incidental, often cited in discussions about philosophy, poetry, or human nature.
Blake is referenced in government records and investigation files, often in discussions about human suffering, wisdom, or artistic influence. For example, his quote about excess leading to wisdom is cited in one document, and his name appears in a list of poets in another. However, these mentions are tangential and do not suggest any direct connection to Epstein or his activities.
