1,182 wordsSo oft they fell / Into the same illusion, not as man / Whom they triumphed once lapsed. / Thus were they plagued (Milton, Book X, 570 - 72). Leaving the underworld, once again, defeated by the heavens. Although John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost, is considered to be a tragedy, it displays some reminders of a comic end.

Satan As A Sympathetic Hero In Paradise Lost
844 wordsIf one were not imbued with the preconceived separation of Satan and God into evil and virtue, then the reader of John Milton's Paradise Lost would undoubtedly judge Satan the poems hero and God as the ruler of an oppressive hierarchy in heaven. By his use of characterization and tone, Milton's Satan becomes the sympathetic martyr of Paradise Lost. Christianity paints Satan only in terms of evil: a jealous, sinuous snake, that tempts man to disobey God. However, the Bible fails to further analyz...

One such example of this, and one of the most major in the epic, are the...

Adam And Eve Son Of God
2,170 wordsParadise Lost (1667) The poem is divided up into 12 books. The verse is English heroic without rhyme, as that of Homer in Greek, and of Virgil in Latin. (Knopf, 1996)? This neglect then of rhyme so little is to be taken for a defect, though it may seem so perhaps to vulgar readers, that it rather is to be esteemed an example set, the first in English, of ancient liberty recovered to heroic poem from the troublesome and modern bondage of writing. ?

Dante Alighieri Divine Comedy
1,056 wordsAlthough there seem to be similarities between Dantes vision of Satan and his vision of God, Satan is actually an inversion of the Trinity and God.
