A poet of the seventeenth century, Milton with his future gaze may
prove to be (singularly among the triumvirate of Chaucer,
Shakespeare, and Milton) the poet "for" the new millennium--the
poet "for" the twenty-first century. Milton will be so to the
extent that through him we see the upheavals in the humanities as
deriving not from a revision of the canon but rather, as Bill
Readings insists in "The University in Ruins, " from "a crisis in
the "function" of the canon" and, then, to the extent that Milton
shocks us into the recognition that poets sometimes deliver
messages at odds with those with which they are credited.
