Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paradise Regained Milton's "Paradise Regained" and "Samson Agonistes" were published together as a single volume in the year 1671, when his age was sixty-three, and he was within three or four years of his death. He died on the 8th of November, 1674. "Paradise Lost" had, as we have seen, its issue in a Paradise to be regained, happier far than the outward Eden. The regained Paradise would be within the man who should attain the sum of wisdom in obedience and love to God; in faith, in virtue, patience, temperance, and "love By name to come called charity, the soul Of all the rest."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paradise Regained: A Poem in Four Books To rescue in some degree from neglect and oblivion, (by more ample illustration than it has hitherto received, ) a poem, of which the great Author himself thought so highly, is the object of the present attempt; which, it is hoped, may not be unacceptable, at least to the admirers of Milton. At all events the pains of the Editor have not been without their recompence, in the very great pleasure which he has found from a closer examination of a poem replete with that specie-s of intrinsic beauty, which, though it may not allure and fascinate at the first glance, is certain, when attentively con sidered, to engage and rivet the-admiration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton's Paradise Regained "We shall prefer to read the fashionable novelist of each season as it passes, but we shall choose to be represented at the international congress of world poets by Shakespeare and Milton, Shakespeare first, and next Milton." So schreibt Pattison in seinem Buche uber Milton und stellt damit den blinden Sauger in die vorderste Reibe der englischen Dichter. Zugleich deutet er seine Stellung zu der Frage an, wer der grossere von beiden sei. Diese Frage ist einst lange und ziemlich heftig von Englandern erortert worden, und es hat viele gegeben, die dem puritanischen Dichter die Palme gereicht haben. Mit Recht ist auf das Massige dieses Streites hingewiesen, und das Wort Goethes, sie sollten sich freuen, zwei solche Kerle zu haben, ist von der deutschen auf die englische Litteratnr ubertragen worden. Wenn man Milton diese hohe Stelle im Kreise der englischen Dichter einraumt, denkt man vor allen Dingen an das Paradise Lost," jenes erhabene religiose Epos, das einen so grossen Einfluss auf die deutsche Litteratnr des 18. Jahrhunderts ausgeubt hat und das in seiner Bedeutung hochstens mit der gewaltigen Schopfung Dantes verglichen werden kann. Abgesehen von diesem Werke und den kleineren Gedichten schenkte Milton in seinem Alter der Welt noch ein zweites religioses Gedieht, das Paradise Regained." Mit diesem sollen sieh die folgenden Seiten in Kurze befassen. Wir werden zunachst den Inhalt des Gedichts anfuhren, dann uber den Titel, die Vollstandigkeit, Entstehung und Zeit, die Vorbilder und Nachahmung, Composition handeln und daran einige allgemeine Bemerkungen uber Vers, Sprache etc. anschliessen.

There may be nothing in the poem that can quite touch the first two books of Paradise Lost for magnificence; but there are several things that may fairly be set beside almost anything in the last ten.

Download or read book Milton Paradise Lost written by John Milton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-14 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton Paradise Lost: Books I and II Any excuse which may be needed for the existence of this new edition of the first two books of Paradise Lost will be found, not in the Notes so much as in the Introduction and Conclusion. The present volume aims to present, in form at once compact and continuous, and mainly in Milton's own words, the story of Paradise Lost, and especially the story of Satan. It is expected that the quoted passages will not only set forth the narrative with some clearness, but will afford something more than a glimpse of the poet at his best. The editor recommends that the Introduction, the first two Books, and the Conclusion, be first read from beginning to end, with a view to getting the perspective of the story; after which the student may take up more prof itably a detailed study of Books I. And II. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

Download or read book Paradise Reclaimed written by Halldor Laxness and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Nobel Prize winner comes a captivating novel about an idealistic Icelandic farmer who journeys to Mormon Utah and back in search of paradise. • "Full of an earthy poetry...a style wonderfully wise and entirely Scandinavian in its combination of magic and reality." —The New York Times Book Review • With an introduction by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of A Thousand Acres. The quixotic hero of this long-lost classic is Steinar of Hlidar, a generous but very poor man who lives peacefully on a tiny farm in nineteenth-century Iceland with his wife and two adoring young children. But when he impulsively offers his children's beloved pure-white pony to the visiting King of Denmark, he sets in motion a chain of disastrous events that leaves his family in ruins and himself at the other end of the earth, optimistically building a home for them among the devout polygamists in the Promised Land of Utah. By the time the broken family is reunited, Laxness has spun his trademark blend of compassion and comically brutal satire into a moving and spellbinding enchantment, composed equally of elements of fable and folkore and of the most humble truths.

Download or read book Paradise Lost written by John Milton and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2012-02-23 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Milton’s epic story of cosmic rebellion and the beginning of human history has long been considered one of the greatest and most gripping narratives ever written in English. Yet its intensely poetic language, now-antiquated syntax and vocabulary, and dense allusions to mythical and Biblical figures make it inaccessible to many modern readers. This is, as the critic Harold Bloom wrote in 2000, “a great sorrow, and a true cultural loss.” Dennis Danielson aims to open up Milton’s epic for a twenty-first-century readership by providing a fluid, accessible rendition in contemporary prose alongside the original. The edition allows readers to experience the power of the original poem without barriers to understanding.
