Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1829 edition. Excerpt: ... MILTON CONTRASTED WITH MILTON, AND WITH (r) )e Scriptures, ----The reported discovery of a posthumous work of Milton, --a work de Doctrina Christiana by the author of Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained, --was calculated to excite a high degree of interest in the public mind. His profound knowledge of, and reverence for, the Scriptures, his extensive acquaintance with the best ecclesiastical writers of antiquity, his great erudition and sagacity, and the acknowledged orthodoxy of See his latest Biographers, Dr. Johnson, Mr. Todd, and Dr. S'mmons, quoted below, pp. 165,166. his principles in all his printed works, gave just reason to anticipate the acquisition of a new bulwark to the Christian faith, which might add strength even to the labours of Pearson and Bull. The greatest admirers of Milton were accordingly the most impatient for its publication. The Latin work, lately published (with a splendour of form and of learning, such as Milton himself deserved), if amplitude of materials were a just test of its value, would be not unworthy of the great name to which it is ascribed; but it must have disappointed the expectations of a large portion of its readers by the contrariety of its doctrines to the faith professed by Milton in works published by himself at all periods of his life, in his prose writings as well as his poems. The writer, after acknowledging that the reformed Religion was sufficiently defended against the corruptions of Popery, pronounces it to be inadequately fortified in many other points, and that many of its doctrines required to be more strictly examined, and more accurately reformed. He offers his work to the world as the result of many years' unremitted diligence, and unwearied search after truth. In the course o

Book Milton and the Grounds of Contention

Download or read book Milton and the Grounds of Contention written by Mark R. Kelley and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both in his life and in his writings, Milton became the very embodiment of contention. He was an embattled figure whose ideas provoked endless controversy from his own time to the present. The ten new essays in this volume examine major issues that have become the grounds of contention in the study and interpretation of Milton and his works. These issues include the significance of women writers and readers, the nature of Milton's influence and the reception of his works, the gendered bias that informs the portrayal of Eve, the vexed subject of choice and election that underlies the character of Samson, and the taint of heresy that Milton's theological beliefs are said to betray. In their engagement with these issues, the scholars represented here concern themselves with such figures as Edmund Burke, Lucy Huitchinson and Elizabeth Singer Rowe. Their essays explre the concept of 'femme covert', the authorship of 'De Doctrina Christiana', the significance of Milton's failure to pursue the Passion and Crucifiction of Jesus, and the place of the Socinian controversy in Milton and his heirs.

Book John Milton

    Book Details:
  • Author : John T. Shawcross
  • Publisher : University Press of Kentucky
  • Release : 2021-09-15
  • ISBN : 0813181623
  • Pages : 521 pages

Download or read book John Milton written by John T. Shawcross and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The facts of John Milton's life are well documented, but what of the person Milton—the man whose poetic and prose works have been deeply influential and are still the subject of opposing readings? John Shawcross's "different" biography depicts the man against a psychological backdrop that brings into relief who he was—in his works and from his works. While the theories of Freud, Lacan, Kohut, and others underlie this pursuit of Milton's "self," Jung and some of his followers provide the basic understanding by which Shawcross places Milton in the panorama of history. His explorations of the psychological underpinnings of Milton's decision to become a poet, of the homoerotic dimensions of his personality, and of his relationships with father and mother demonstrate the extent to which psychobiography proves itself invaluable as a means to appreciate this complex writer and his complex writings. This biography combines the traditional chronological narrative with a technique akin to that of fiction, "a mixture of times and a triggering of remembrances from various time frames without time differentiations." Such an approach offers a view of Milton "not only in being but in process of being." Shawcross's examination of two current concerns, gender attitudes and political ideologies, ranges Milton's work against the self he exhibits. Specialists and nonspecialists alike will find in this magisterial biography a wealth of new insight into one of the greatest of English poets.
