Description

Caroline Moore's study of John Milton's Paradise Lost explores the poem's enduring human themes. Critics have long debated whether the epic's grandeur and erudition outweigh its lack of a central human character.

Milton himself believed that poetry excelled at describing the complexities of the human mind, and Paradise Lost is no exception. This fascinating analysis suggests that the core of the poem lies in its exploration of the dark byways and infinite strangeness of the human heart.
