Miton and Early Modern Devotional Culture analyses the
representation of public and private prayer in John Milton's poetry
and prose, paying particular attention to the ways
seventeenth-century prayer is imagined as embodied in sounds,
gestures, postures, and emotional responses. Naya Tsentourou
demonstrates Milton's profound engagement with prayer, and how this
is driven by a consistent and ardent effort to experience one's
address to God as inclusive of body and spirit and as loaded with
affective potential. The book aims to become the first
interdisciplinary study to show how Milton participates in and
challenges early modern debates about authentic and insincere
worship in public, set and spontaneous prayers in private, and
gesture and voice in devotion.
