| John Milton wrote his master work, one of the great treasures of world literature, that he might ". . . assert eternal providence, and justify the ways of God to men.”
Second only to Shakespeare’s work, Paradise Lost reinforced the impetus of the Reformation and has inspired and influenced poets and writers from 1667 onward. This edition contains the Gustave Doré illustrations to give dramatic visual emphasis to the unequaled poetry and imagery of Milton’s master work.
Paradise Lost is a central study in the ninth grade Noah Plan® literature curriculum and a life-long delight to those who love literature and the Bible. |
