early reactions to recent criticism
*Reprints the most frequently studied passages of the poem, along
with extensive commentary and annotation of unfamiliar or
significant terms used in Milton's work
*Provides cross-references between the textual, contextual and
critical sections of the sourcebook, to show how all the materials
can be called upon in an individual reader's encounter with the
text

somewhat daunting work, this sourcebook will be a welcome resource
