Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This volume offers an accessible and stimulating introduction to one of the most influential texts of western literature.

The book considers the heretical dimensions of Paradise Lost and its theology, while situating Milton's great poem in its literary, religious, and political contexts. A concluding chapter addresses the influence of Milton's sublime poem as a source of creative inspiration for later writers, from the Restoration to the Romantics. Finally, the volume offers an extremely useful and updated guide to further reading, which students will find invaluable. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
