John Milton (1608-1674) spent his early years in scholarly pursuit. In 1649 he took up the cause for the new Commonwealth, defending the English revolution both in English and Latin - and sacrificing his eyesight in the process. He risked his lifeby publishing The Ready and Easy Way to Establish a Free Commonwealth on the eve of the Restoration (1660). His great poems were published after this political defeat.
John Leonard is a Professor of English at the University of Western Ontario.
John Milton's celebrated epic poem exploring the cosmological, moral and spiritual origins of man's existence, Paradise Lost has been fully revised with an introduction by John Leonard in Penguin Classics.
In Paradise Lost Milton produced poem of epic scale, conjuring up a vast, awe-inspiring cosmos and ranging across huge tracts of space and time, populated by a memorable gallery of grotesques. And yet, in putting a charismatic Satan and naked, innocent Adam and Eve at the centre of this story, he also created an intensely human tragedy on the Fall of Man.
Written when Milton was in his fifties - blind, bitterly disappointed by the Restoration and in danger of execution - Paradise Lost's apparent ambivalence towards authority has led to intense debate about whether it manages to 'justify the ways of God to men', or exposes the cruelty of Christianity.
John Leonard's revised edition of Paradise Lost contains full notes, which elucidates Milton's biblical, classical and historical allusions and discuss his vivid, highly original use of language and blank verse.
弥尔顿的长篇史诗《失乐园》,以《圣经•旧约•创世记》第二、三章关于人类始祖亚当、夏娃在撒旦引诱下偷食禁果犯下原罪,被上帝逐出伊甸园的故事为蓝本,成功地将诗人——作为一个清教徒,所相信的人类重返上帝的乐园的回归之路极为完整、生动地展现在读者面前。这条路发...
评分版式设计,装帧,纸型,手感都上佳。 阅读时携带轻便,不像某些书死沉死沉能当板儿砖使。 近年来广西师大出版社的确下了番功夫,在纸质图书上从其他媒介收复了不少阵地。 原本弥尔顿的无韵诗翻译得倒也顺畅,选词也确实独到。 只是把大天使米迦勒翻译成了迈克尔。。。。 ma, ...
评分故事從撒旦墜落開始,共有12卷,以亞當和夏娃的離去為結束。 虛偽、謊言、奉承、狡詐、背叛。每一樣都是上帝心目中的罪惡,但這并不是黑暗的源頭。【意志也好,理性也罷,若被剝奪自由,二者都變為空虛,沒用的了,二者都成了被動,只服從不得已,而不服從我,這樣的服從,又有...
评分 评分哎呀之前居然没标过弥老师,失敬失敬……其实应该五星的,不过弥老师屌癌还是要扣一分。
评分没中文翻译看不懂。Milton自创了不知道多少词......写此书目的就是against monarchy and regain the liberty for England。 其实觉得Eva和Satan是一伙的...jian。。。。。‘with accent sweet renewed’..Adam就是一直再被洗脑的状态..
评分A blurred pre- and postlapsarian reading of Christian stories (Eden), as well as embedded political critiques (thru Satan and Eve etc). Personally not my favorite only b/c too well-versed to read.
评分Glory of glory
评分I miss Chaucer...That's how much I dislike Milton.
