Dr Johnson sums up the case against Milton "the want of human interest is always felt" It is the apparent distance of Paradise Lost from ordinary humanity that has thrilled or repelled critics throughout the ages While many readers are carried away by Milton's sublimity others are daunted by his grandeur scope & learning Milton himself declared that he would not begin to write until he had "completed the full circle of my private studies" The Greek word for a circle of learning is the root of "encyclopaedia"; & Milton's erudition is encyclopaedic Paradise Lost draws on both ancient learning & the scholarship of his day displaying not only his deep knowledge of the Bible & Biblical scholarship & his passionate assimilation of the classics but also his absorption in astronomy cosmology geography numerology & science Yet many critics of Paradise Lost argue that all this circling lacks a human centre Who after all is the hero? Adam & Eve in their unfallen state are too remote from us; Christ is not yet incarnate; God cannot be a character Which leaves us with the magnificently problematic figure of Satan In this fascinating study of Milton's great poem Caroline Moore suggests that contrary to what these critics argue the core of Paradise Lost is extraordinarily human Milton himself believed that poetry excelled at describing "the wily subtleties & refluxes of man's thought from within" This is precisely what Paradise Lost does If to a generation raised on the novel Milton's methods of psychological exploration seem strange this only intensifies the effect Paradise Lost is a poem that explores the dark byways & infinite strangeness of the human heart ...

- a shell-shocked survivor of the Great War who finds peacetime too terrible to continue living in Mrs Dalloway is a novel which provokes thought about the fraught nature of genius literary modernism the ambiguous place of women in English society & literature the infinite complexities of sexual relationships & even the worthwhileness of life itself This book seeks to explore all this & to show that reading Mrs Dalloway can be one of the most rewarding experiences English fiction has to offer
