The complete poems / John Milton

Public ISBD Titre : The complete poems Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John Milton, Auteur ; John Leonard, Auteur Editeur : London [England] : Penguin Books Année de publication : 1998 Collection : Penguin classics Importance : xxix, 982 p. Présentation : couv. ill. en coul. Format : 20 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-14-043363-0 Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:821 English poetry Index. décimale : 821/.4 Résumé : In the course of his forty-year career John Milton evolved from a prodigy to a blind prophet, from a philosophical aesthete to a Puritan rebel, and from a Latinist poet who proclaimed the triumph of reason to an epic poet obsessed with the intractability of sin. A master of almost every verse style -- from the pastoral, devotional, and tenderly lyrical to the supreme grandeur of his great epic, Paradise Lost, and his biblical "Greek tragedy, " Samson Agonistes -- Milton left a body of work unrivaled in literary history. Although he wrote Comus and "Lycidas" shortly after leaving Cambridge University, Milton devoted much of his adult life -- and even sacrificed his eyesight -- to defending the cause of Oliver Cromwell's Commonwealth. Milton's later poetry, produced after Charles II's restoration led to the defeat of the Commonwealth, contains not only personally achieved theological insights but also a deep firsthand understanding of politics and power.This edition presents Milton's complete English, Latin, and Greek poems, modernizing spelling, capitalization, and any punctuation likely to cause confusion. Fully annotated with glosses on the poems' biblical, classical, and historical allusions, this is the best place to start for readers wanting to come to grips with this giant in English literature.
