In Milton and the Ends of Time, a team of leading international
scholars addresses Milton's treatment of millennial and apocalyptic
ideas, topics of major importance in the religious and
philosophical thought of his day. The subject has wide-ranging
ramifications for the interpretation of Milton's poetry and prose,
as his speculations on the ends of time played a vital part in
shaping the Miltonic quest and vision. This collection thinks
critically about Milton's eschatology by arguing that Milton
expressed radical millenarian views after the Restoration and by
demonstrating the pervasiveness of apocalyptic ideas in Milton's
thought. It also provides a broad range of disciplinary and
theoretical perspectives; approaches include Milton and the visual
arts, Milton's politics and theology, Milton and science and
comparative poetics. This volume will be of interest to literary,
religious and political historians of the seventeenth century, as
well as Milton specialists.
