Course Description: | Students will engage Paradise Lost, arguably the greatest epic poem in English, as it explores the nature of heroism, the difference between obedience and servitude, the appropriate use of the environment, the limits of knowledge, and the tension between individual moral agency and traditional ideas of marriage—not to mention space travel, battles between good and evil, and other features of science fiction. Attention to Milton’s other works, including his impassioned defense of freedom of the press, and to other reworkings of the Genesis story. |
