Bücher von John Milton

This edition of Milton's later writings includes the text of six books of "Paradise Lost", extracts from the "History of Britain" and the full text of "Samson Agonistes", with commentary and full annotations. An introduction sets these works in historical and political context.

This volume presents a complete text of all Milton's verse. Coleridge linked Milton and Shakespeare as the greatest of English poets, and even in our time Milton continues to exert a powerful influence, both on the writing of poetry and on critical debate.
