Description 1 online resource (243 pages)
Contents From script to print to fame : the minor poems, 1630-1785 -- Minor masterpieces -- Milton, Dryden, and Paradise lost -- Milton "a flat Arian"? -- Two modern critics
Summary This book distinguishes Milton's academic importance from his real status, and addresses readers with broad literary interests, who may be ready to think again about a poet whom Dryden saw as superior to both Homer and Virgil. The work is therefore a contribution to the ongoing histories of Milton's reputation in particular, and literary taste in general
