Description & Specifications

This Norton Critical Edition of Milton's Selected Poetry and Prose includes "Lycidas"—widely considered the finest short poem in the English language, the great tragedy Samson Agonistes, the masque Comus, the brief epic Paradise Regained, and eighteen sonnets as well as other poems. It also contains the complete texts of five of Milton's major prose works, among them Areopagitica and Of Education and Divorce. Each major work is accompanied by a unique introduction and all works have abundant explanatory notes. The key biblical sources that inspire Milton's writing have been reprinted, along with fourteen scholarly interpretations of the principal texts. From the richness of commentary on Milton's poetry and prose, the editor has selected those works that can be studied and appreciated by the widest number of readers, including essays that can easily be integrated for classroom discussion. Authors include Anthony Hecht, William Kerrigan, Mary Nyquist, Stanley Fish, Barbara K. Lewalski, John Carey, and Sharon Achinstein, among others. Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
