A Preface to MiltonLongman, 1986 - 182 էջ "This invaluable account provides an excellent introduction to the life and works of Milton. Clearly and concisely it outlines his life and cultural background and their effect on his work, setting him firmly in th context of the tumultuous times in which he lived. It also examines his major works, including Paradise Lost [and] looks at important people in Milton's life and their effect on him. In this fascinating introduction to Milton, Lois Potter leaves us in no doubt about the importance of this great blind poet in the history of English Literature." -- Back cover |
