Greatest Works of John Milton

Greatest Works of John Milton brings together the complete texts of Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained, two of the defining epic poems of English literature. Paradise Lost recounts the rebellion of Satan and the fallen angels, the creation of the world, Adam and Eve in Eden, temptation, the Fall, and humanity's exile from Paradise. Paradise Regained follows the temptation of Christ in the wilderness and his resistance to Satan's offers of power, glory, and worldly dominion. Written in blank verse and steeped in biblical and classical imagery, these works explore free will, obedience, ambition, temptation, justice, loss, and redemption. Presented together in one volume, they offer Milton's sweeping vision of the conflict between Heaven and Hell and the moral choices that shape human destiny. This Graphyco Modern Classics edition contains the complete texts of Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained.
