Thoughtful collection of John Milton's finest poetry marks the quatercentenary of the poet's birth in 1608.

Excerpt from L'allegro: Edited, With NotesThis poem and the Penseroso must be studied side by side in order to understand either. In mechanism, to begin with, they are parallel: they have a similar overture, development, climax, and close, which it is easy to follow. Each poem opens with an imprecation, in similar metre, against the patron goddess of the other, and goes on to invoke its own, Mirth for the joyous man, Melancholy for the sad. Th...

He published several revolutionary manifestos, two works defending regicide, and of course the famous Areopagitica, or defense of freedom of expression and the press against cen...

El Areopago, la colina de Ares (o Marte) en Atenas, era el lugar de las grandes asambleas y el tribunal judicial mas alto de la polis. Milton habla al Parlamento ingles como si lo hiciera ante el Areopago de la Antiguedad.

His writing reflected his radical views and his profound understanding of politics and power. This collection includes such early works as the devotional "On the Morning of Christ's Nativity, " "Comus,...

This volume is a facsimile reprint of the Chiswick Press Edition, London 1898.

Poema che si propone la «giustificazione all'uomo delle azioni del Signore», Paradiso perduto usa la forma drammatica per dimostrare che Adamo ed Eva furono puniti perché peccarono, scegliendo deliberatamente il Male. Uniti nella colpa e nell'implacabile sentenza divina, furono cacciati dall'Eden sulla terra: un luogo ignoto nel quale sono destinati a vivere nell'infelicità. Pur nella drammaticità del tema, le pagine del Paradiso perduto vivon...
