Paradise Lost. Works such as ‘L’Allegro’ and ‘Il Penseroso’ consider divisions of loyalties, while ‘A Masque’ (‘Comus’) explores Milton’s great theme of temptation, and the pastoral elegy ‘Lycidas’ contemplates mortality and the meaning of human life. This volume includes considerable selections from Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained – Milton’s late epics on the Fall of Man and Christ’s temptation in the wilderness – and the complete Samson Agonistes, in which the great hero undergoes a profound crisis of faith in his final hours.]]>
