Sing, Heavenly Muse...Not a lot people know that 'Paradise Lost' has as a much lesser known companion piece 'Paradise Regained'; of course, it was true during Milton's time as it is today that the more harrowing and juicy the story, the better it will likely be remembered and received.This is not to cast any aspersion on this great poem, however.The line above, the first lines of the first book of the poem, is typical of the style throughout the epic, in vocabulary and syntax, in allusiveness.These characters interact with the more traditional Christian characters of Adam, Eve, Satan, various angels, and God.Hell owe much to Dante's Inferno).Paradise Lost attained an almost instant acclaim.Milton held a diplomatic post under the Commonwealth, and wrote defenses of the governments action, including the right of people to depose and dispose of a bad king.Moved our grand Parents, in that happy state,
Favoured of Heaven so highly, to fall off
From their Creator and transgress his will,
For one restraint, lords of the world besides?Here we may reign secure, and in my choice
To reign is worth ambition though in hell:
Better to reign in hell, that serve in heav'n.Paradise Lost, rather than a Star Trek episode!The imagery of warfare and ambition in the angels, God's wisdom and power and wrath, the very human characterisations of Adam and Eve, and the development beyond Eden make a very compelling story, done with such grace of language that makes this a true classic for the ages.The magnificence of creation, the darkness and empty despair of hell, the manipulativeness of evil and the corruptible innocence of humanity all come through as classic themes."Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided to other Amazon.Your vote will be counted and will appear on the product page within 24 hours."John Milton's "Paradise Lost" is a timeless classic.Christian reader would do well to read "Paradise Lost" to become a literate student of Christian imagery.The Christian, willing to work through the descriptive poetry, will gain new insight into Creation, Fall, and Redemption.It's interesting how much "folk theology" owes itself to Milton's "Paradise Lost."Modern views of the Devil, in particular, are often unknowingly based upon the poetic images from Milton.This would surpass common revenge, and interrupt his joy in our confusion and our joy upraise in his disturbance; when his darling Sons hurled headlong to partake with us, shall curse their frail Original, and faded bliss, faded so soon (Milton, Paradise Lost, p.By Satan, and in part proposed: for whence, but from the Author of all ill could spring so deep a malice, to confound the race of mankind in one root, and Earth with Hell to mingle and involve, done all to spite the great Creator?Milton, Paradise Lost, p.Milton, imagining God's words to Christ, declares:
For man will hearken to his glozing lies, and easily transgress the sole Command, sole pledge of his obedience.So will fall he and his faithless Progeny.Ingrate, he had of me all he could have; I made him just and right, sufficient to have stood, though free to fall (Milton, Paradise Lost, p.Made just and right and able to choose.Adam and Eve had all they could have from the generous hand of God, yet they transgressed the sole command, the sole pledge of loving, trustful obedience.Having lost the battle for heaven, his hostility and hate triggers a new plan.Why a second siege on heaven's gates, when earth's shores suggest easier prey?So was his will pronounced among the Gods, and by an oath, that shook Heaven's whole circumference, confirmed (Milton, Paradise Lost, pp.Readers also could benefit from his less known work, "Paradise Regained."Many have mentioned how difficult it is to write a riveting book about Heaven since the drama of evil is defeated and thus the tension is deflated.There's enough already said about why and how Milton wrote this book, so I don't have anything to say about that.In the end, Milton deserves to be called the greatest writer in English because of the pure strength and beauty of each individual sentence.This is undoubtedly a difficult book to read.English class, and I tell them, "This will be the most complex text you will encounter this year."We have to practice unpacking sentences one at a time and stating them in our own words in order to get their meaning.Reading Milton might or might not change your view of God and man, but absorbing him will change your love of language.The words are vivid and powerful and beg to be read aloud.If you like your poetry Great in the sense of sounding larger than life and tackling humanity's major questions, Milton is it.And, in my opinion, he even takes out other wonderful poets that I also love, including Dante, Virgil, Homer, and Shakespeare).Was this review helpful to you?See all 20 customer reviews...There is nothing that in Paradise Lost that can be described as simple.Milton class I took in school.Published 24 months ago by R.Penguin paperback version of this book with the foreward by John Leonard.Published on November 13, 2005 by David M.Yes, Milton is arrogant and sexist.Yes, it's difficult to read.Who Knew Satan Was So Darn Cool?At least in Paradise Lost.See all 20 customer reviews...Irish
