Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Milton the Elder and His Music In the embarrassing splendor of this company the elder Mil ton held a position that was far from humble. His work was rated, and printed, with the best. He was a genius in his Own right long before he had any children. That, at least, is the thesis of the present essay, a thesis which has emerged from a fresh examination of contemporary documents and from the pleasant labor of scoring and hearing all his music which is known to have survived, in print or in manuscript. More than half of it has hitherto been completely ignored. The story of his career, frag mentary and obscure as much of it is, brings us into contact with the characteristic intellectual color and humor of the age of Gloriana and James. An analysis of the music itself, ranging from the simple to the architecturally complicated and grandiose, from deep pathos and lamentation to the most winning frivolity, should dissipate the notion that a dabbling tinkerer or a dour puritan was here at work.

Book excerpt: John Milton — poet, polemicist, public servant, and author of one of the greatest masterpieces in English literature, Paradise Lost — is revered today as a great writer and a proponent of free speech. In his time, however, his ideas far exceeded the orthodoxy of English life; spurred by his conscience and an iron grip on logic, Milton was uncompromising in his beliefs at a time of great religious and political flux in England. In John Milton, David Hawkes expertly interweaves details from Milton's public and private life, providing new insight into the man and his prophetic stance on politics and the social order. By including a broad range of Milton's iconoclastic views on issues as diverse as politics, economics, and sex, Hawkes suggests that Milton's approach to market capitalism, political violence, and religious terrorism continues to be applicable even in the 21st century. This insightful biography closely examines Milton's participation in the English civil war and his startlingly modern ideas about capitalism, love, and marriage, reminding us that human liberty and autonomy should never be taken for granted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A preeminent figure of English literature, the seventeenth century poet John Milton wrote at a time of religious flux and political upheaval, while serving as a civil servant for the Commonwealth of England and later under Oliver Cromwell. His most famous work, the epic poem ‘Paradise Lost’ (1667) is widely considered to be one of the greatest works of literature ever written. A diverse, intellectual and bilingual author, Milton achieved international renown within his lifetime. His celebrated prose work ‘Areopagitica’ (1644), written in condemnation of pre-publication censorship, still stands as one of the most influential defences of freedom of speech and the press. Milton introduced many new words to the English language and was the first modern writer to employ unrhymed verse outside of the theatre or translations. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting. This volume presents Milton’s complete English works in poetry and prose, with related illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material.
