This second edition of "Approaches to Teaching Milton's"
Paradise Lost addresses Milton in the light of the digital age, new
critical approaches to his poem, and his continued presence in
contemporary culture. It aims to help instructors enliven the
teaching of "Paradise Lost" and address the challenges presented to
students by the poem--the early modern syntax and vocabulary, the
political and theological contexts, and the abounding classical
references.
The first part of the volume, "Materials," evaluates the many
available editions of the poem, points to relevant reference works,
recommends additional reading, and outlines useful audiovisual and
online aids for teaching Milton's epic poem. The essays in the
second part, "Approaches," are grouped by several themes: literary
and historical contexts, characters, poetics, critical approaches,
classrooms, and performance. The essays cover epic conventions and
literary and biblical allusions, new approaches such as
ecocriticism and masculinity studies, and reading Milton on the
Web, among other topics.
