Synopsis:

The collection begins with a fresh analysis of the visionary mode of narrative in the early modern period as seen in both biblical and imaginative literature and sets the groundwork for an examination of Milton's poetry, prose, and biography. The themes of prophecy and violence develop throughout these essays as an overall context in Milton's life, as an important principle in such works as Paradise Regained, and as a mode for an extended analysis of Restoration politics as they figure in Milton's poetry.
