Summary |
Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. Milton's influence has been felt by many writers since, none more so in recent times than the novelist Philip Pullman, author of His Dark Materials. His introduction to the poem is a tribute that is both personal and full of insight; he encourages readers above all to. experience the poem for themselves, and surrender to its enchantment. - ;Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English lang |
