For Milton, these are equally artistic questions, and to address them this study considers the precedents in Christian art that provide models for portraying the divine within a reformed context. Milton's revision of the passion tradition in his short poems of 1645 and his later epic poems substitutes a living, obedient and subservient Son in place of late medieval representations of the crucifixion. His alternative passion unfolds through a poetic vocabulary of fragmentation, omission, and restoration, drawing on iconoclasm as an artistic strategy. This study addresses the long-standing question about Milton's avoidance of the crucifixion and contributes to the broader study of his reformed poetics. 410 0$aStudies in the history of Christian traditions ;$vv. 145. 606 $aChristian poetry, English$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aDevotional literature, English$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aChristian poetry, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aDevotional literature, English$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a821/.4 700 $aHenriksen$b Erin$01521754 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785698703321 996 $aMilton and the Reformation aesthetics of the passion$93761126 997 $aUNINA
