Description
Milton's influence on English poetry and criticism has been incalculable. One of the most frequently studied early modern writers, Milton's twelve book Paradise Lost became a classic almost immediately after his death in 1674, continuing to inspire controversy and debate, and exerting inestimable influence throughout the ages. Now, Jonathan Goldberg and Stephen Orgel have culled some of his finest works, including Lycidus, Comus, Samson Agonistes, and selected extracts from Paradise Lost to make up this volume of Milton's Selected Poetry.
