1912. A tragedy by John Milton, it is considered the greatest
English drama based on the Greek model and is known as one more
suited for reading than performance. The work deals with the final
phase of Samson's life and recounts the story as told in the Old
Testament Book of Judges. Himself blind when he wrote Samson
Agonistes, Milton depicts Samson, the once mighty warrior, as
blinded and a prisoner of the Philistines. Samson conquers
self-pity and despair, however, and is granted a return of his old
strength. He pulls down the pillars that support the temple of the
Philistine god Dagon, crushing himself along with his captors.
