Ranking among the greatest of all English poets, John Milton (1608
74) was an influential thinker during a particularly volatile
period in his nation's history. His supreme masterpiece Paradise
Lost forms one of the pillars of English literature. The literary
scholar and historian Sir Walter Alexander Raleigh (1861 1922) was
educated at University College London and King's College,
Cambridge. Following posts at Liverpool and Glasgow, he was
appointed Professor of English Literature at Oxford University,
where he also served as an adviser to the Clarendon Press. This
work, first published in 1900, is based upon lectures he gave the
previous year as Clark Lecturer in English Literature at Trinity
College, Cambridge. Admired by the critic William Empson, it is a
penetrating study of the great poet and contains a biographical
sketch as well as lucid analyses of Milton's use of language and
its significant influence.
