Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, an epic poem, tells the story of the fall of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden as Milton saw it. It follows them from their creation to their expulsion from paradise. The author included many apt circumstances about their state of innocence in order to diversify his infernal council with proper characters, and inspire them with a variety of sentiments. This book is also a philosophical poem, which explores the nature of good and evil, and the human condition. The author meticulously followed the rules laid down by Aristotle for an Epic poem with artful execution, rhyme, and sensible plot. In this telling, he suggests that the most important and meaningful act for any individual is to serve God whole-heartedly.
