The issue of the Jews deeply engaged Milton throughout his career,
and not necessarily in ways that make for comfortable or reassuring
reading today. While Shakespeare and Marlowe, for example,
critiqued rather than endorsed racial and religious prejudice in
their writings about Jews, the same cannot be said for Milton. The
scholars in this collection confront a writer who participated in
the sad history of anti-Semitism, even as he appropriated Jewish
models throughout his writings. Well grounded in solid historical
and theological research, the essays both collectively and
individually offer an important contribution to the debate on
Milton and Judaism, and will inspire new directions in Milton
studies. This book will be of interest not only to scholars of
Milton and of seventeenth-century literature, but also to
historians of the religion and culture of the period.
