Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the connections between John Milton and a previous poet, Joshua Sylvester. The author analyzes Milton's early poetry, particularly his masque "Comus," to demonstrate Milton's deep engagement with Sylvester's translation of the French poet Du Bartas's epic poem, "The Divine Weeks and Works." Through close readings of both poets, the author argues that Sylvester's work provided Milton with a rich source of poetic language, imagery, and themes, which Milton adapted and transformed in his own groundbreaking poetry. This book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of Milton's poetic development and the broader literary and intellectual currents of the early 17th century, enriching our appreciation of Milton's enduring influence on English literature.
