Servant of God, well done! Well hast thou fought
The better fight, who single hast maintained
Against revolted multitudes the cause
Of truth, in word mightier than they in arms,
And for the testimony of truth hast borne
Universal reproach, far worse to bear
Than violence; for this was all thy care -
To stand approved in sight of God, though worlds
Judged thee perverse.'
- Paradise Lost VI. 29-37.
O mighty-mouthed inventor of harmonies,
O skilled to sing of Time or Eternity,
God-gifted organ-voice of England,
Milton, a name to resound for ages;
Whose Titan angels, Gabriel, Abdiel,
Starred from Jehovah's gorgeous armories,
Tower as the deep-domed empyrean
Rings to the roar of an angel onset -
Me rather all that bowery loneliness,
The brooks of Eden mazily murmuring,
And bloom profuse and cedar arches
Charm, as a wanderer out in ocean,
Where some refulgent sunset of India
Streams o'er a rich ambrosial ocean isle,
And crimson-hued the stately palmwoods
Whisper in odorous heights of even.'
- Tennyson.

An Introduction Prose and Poetical Works of John Milton (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a profound collection of autobiographical writings from one of the most influential figures in English literature: John Milton. A poet and polemicist extraordinaire, Milton's writings on liberty - religious, personal, and civil - exhibited in this collection, are as radical and controversial today as they were when they were first written. His ideas have formed the bases of much of our democratic and humanist principles still adhered to today, and his literary works have inspired and influenced generations of poets and writers. Milton stood on the front lines of not only the political and social battles of his day but also on the front lines of humanist thought. He articulated the right and responsibility of every individual to live a life of dignity free from oppression. This text is a necessary read for students of English literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the development of democratic thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781331311690_0
