Sommario/riassunto

In this subtle and intelligently conceived study of Milton's major poems, Professor Lawry analyzes and explicates the poems and interprets them in the context of the entire body of Milton's work. His interpretations help the reader to participate with the poet in the "enactment" of the poems, whether with Adam in the Garden of Eden or with Satan in Hell.
