Book The Satanic Epic

Download or read book The Satanic Epic written by Neil Forsyth and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Satan of Paradise Lost has fascinated generations of readers. This book attempts to explain how and why Milton's Satan is so seductive. It reasserts the importance of Satan against those who would minimize the poem's sympathy for the devil and thereby make Milton orthodox. Neil Forsyth argues that William Blake got it right when he called Milton a true poet because he was "of the Devils party" even though he set out "to justify the ways of God to men." In seeking to learn why Satan is so alluring, Forsyth ranges over diverse topics--from the origins of evil and the relevance of witchcraft to the status of the poetic narrator, the epic tradition, the nature of love between the sexes, and seventeenth-century astronomy. He considers each of these as Milton introduces them: as Satanic subjects. Satan emerges as the main challenge to Christian belief. It is Satan who questions and wonders and denounces. He is the great doubter who gives voice to many of the arguments that Christianity has provoked from within and without. And by rooting his Satanic reading of Paradise Lost in Biblical and other sources, Forsyth retrieves not only an attractive and heroic Satan but a Milton whose heretical energies are embodied in a Satanic character with a life of his own.

This book was released on 2017-04-15 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton's Considerations Touching the Likeliest Means to Remove Hirelings Out of the Church: With a Preface on the Prose Writings of Milton John milton, undoubtedly One of the very greatest literary or nameute of his country, has owed his celebrity among us hitherto chiefly to his poetry. As a poet, he has merited more than his fame, high as it is. His Comus is the most perfectly beau tiful of dramatic poems; and his Paradise Lost, to say nothing of the extent to which it has contributed to human improvement, by the religious and moral sentiments which it contains, is con fessedly the prince of epics. But the prose works of Milton have as yet been very inadecpliately appreciated they have been won derfully little known. Ow many are there even among what ma be called the reading part of the community, who never heard, tih very recently at least, of Milton as a prose author at all? There are passages in the prose writings of John Milton which want only the form Of verse in order to their equalling, if not surpassing, as poetry, the most admired efi'usions of his genius in the Para dise Lost. But this is their smallest praise: they have merit of a. Difi'erent and, we will venture to add, of a higher order. They are instinct with the noblest spirit, and the most uncompromising principles of civil and religious liberty. Milton may be said to be the p ilosopher of freedom, as Bacon is of physical and mental science. He goes to the core of the subject. He consults only with reason and, especially with' reference to religious liberty, the Word of God. His writings (sure token of truth and greatness) are, after the lapse of nearly two hundred years, useful, applicable, and full of light to the existing generation of mankind. The world is yet onlyi'endeavouring to near his standard with slow, and timorous, and feeble steps. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
