John Milton
John Milton 9 December 1608-8 November 1674 was an English poet, polemicist, and man of letters, and a civil servant for the Commonwealth of England under
Oliver Cromwell. He wrote at a time of religious flux and political upheaval, and is best known for his epic poem Paradise Lost1667, written in blank verse.
Miltons poetry and prose reflect deep personal convictions, a passion for freedom and self-determination, and the urgent issues and political turbulence of his day. Writing in English, Latin, Greek, and Italian, he achieved international renown within his lifetime. Samuel Johnson praised Paradise Lostas a poem which...with respect to design may claim the first place, and with respect to performance, the second, among the productions of the human mind.

最经典英语文库第六辑之《失乐园》导读
马爽
这世界上绝大多数人即便不是基督徒，相信也都听说过亚当、夏娃和伊甸园的故事。其实，真正将《圣经旧约》中只有500字的简单叙事内容赋予气势宏伟的语言和曲折离奇的情节，并使之成为一部史诗巨作的，是17世纪英国著名诗人约翰密尔顿，这部鸿篇巨著名曰《失乐园》。
约翰密尔顿（16081674）是英国文学史上最伟大的六大诗人之一，他的无韵体史诗《失乐园》与荷马的《荷马史诗》、但丁的《神曲》（最经典英语文库已经分三册出版面世）并称为西方三大诗歌。
《失乐园》这部史诗描写了这样的故事情节：魔鬼撒旦逃离了地牢，来到上帝为人类始祖亚当和夏娃建立的伊甸园，诱惑他们偷吃了区分善恶树的禁果。他们无知并堕落，引发上帝震怒。一气之下，上帝将亚当和夏娃逐出了伊甸园。他们两人的行为，成为人类原罪的起源，并因此导致死亡、痛苦、饥荒、瘟疫在地球上泛滥。然而，上帝并没有赶尽杀绝，而是赐予了人类救赎的机会，差遣耶稣基督做救赎价，使人类可以通过坚韧的信念和诚心的悔改重新回归乐园。
