Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Milton's "Samson Agonistes" Both as a Drama and an Illustration of the Poet's Life: An Inaugural Dissertation for Obtaining the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Goettingen Whether the strict attention he paid to the Greeks and principally to Euripides, was advantageous to his drama, is doubtful. Bishop Newton an enthusiastical admirer of Milton's poetry overvalues no doubt the poem, saying that it equals, if not exceeds, any of the most perfect tragedies which were ever exhibited on the Athenian stage, when Greece was in its glory. Hurd is of Opinion the Samson Agonistes is, in every point of view, the most artificial and highly finished of all Milton's poetical works.

Download or read book Milton and the Politics of Public Speech written by Helen Lynch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using Hannah Arendt’s account of the Greek polis to explain Milton’s fascination with the idea of public speech, this study reveals what is distinctive about his conception of a godly, republican oratory and poetics. The book shows how Milton uses rhetorical theory - its ideas, techniques and image patterns - to dramatise the struggle between ’good’ and ’bad’ oratory, and to fashion his own model of divinely inspired public utterance. Connecting his polemical and imaginative writing in new ways, the book discusses the subliminal rhetoric at work in Milton’s political prose and the systematic scrutiny of the power of oratory in his major poetry. By setting Milton in the context of other Civil War polemicists, of classical political theory and its early modern reinterpretations, and of Renaissance writing on rhetoric and poetic language, the book sheds new light on his work across several genres, culminating in an extended Arendtian reading of his ’Greek’ drama Samson Agonistes.

Download or read book The Hero s Life Choice Studies on Heracles at the Crossroads the Judgement of Paris and Their Reception written by Malcolm Davies and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two allegorical ancient Greek stories about a young hero’s career- defining choice are shown in this book to have later been appropriated to radically differing effects. E.g. a male’s choice between female personifications can morph into a female’s choice between the same, or between various male personifications. Never before have so many instances of this process from art, literature, music, even landscape gardening, been culled. Illustrations, mainly colour, many brought into this context for the first time, are conveniently incorporated into the text, thus mimetically mirroring a central theme of the book, the process of ‘visualising the verbal, verbalising the visual.’
