Description:
Milton takes the traditional epic and transforms it with the clarity of his moral vision and with the power of his language, turning it into triumphant blank verse--seldom used in his day except in drama--that is moving, exciting, and full of the grandeur of Milton`s poetic vision. In the early parts of "Paradise Lost", he manages to convey sympathy with Satan`s heroic energy. As the epic narrative progresses, however, our allegiance shifts subtly to Christ`s message of love and a vision of Paradise free of Satan`s destructive strivings.
