John Milton (1608-1674) is often regarded as one of England's
greatest poets, second only to Shakespeare. Best known for his
magnum opus "Paradise Lost," Milton was also one of history's most
politically active writers. A radical Protestant and staunch
republican, he served as Latin secretary to Oliver Cromwell during
the Commonwealth and throughout his life wrote eloquent treatises
on topics including divorce, freedom of the press, kingship, and
education. This extensive look at Milton's life and ethos addresses
the psychological complexities and political tenets of the man who
dared to put words in God's mouth, and whose life was spared
following the restoration of the monarchy due only to his
reputation as a poet.
