Book Review of Paradise Lost By John Milton
Paradise Lost is written by an English poet
John Milton. It is all about the biblical story of The Fall of The Man. It
means the temptation of Adam & Eve by the angel who was fallen from the
heaven i.e. Satan and the ejection of Adam & Eve from the Garden of Eden.
The main aim of Milton was to justify the ways of God to human being through
this book.
The book begins with Milton’s speaker
stating that the theme will be Adam & Eve’s indiscipline and fall from
grace. It ends by saying that Adam & Eve through Eden took their lonely or
unaccompanied way. Both of them were exiled from the Eden garden forever.
So I feel that Paradise Lost is a great
book. Milton has done a great job by putting forth all his views about a man’s
disobedience through this book. This book some or the other way is an
identification of our beginning. It portrays us the first family in this world
and the ancient relationship God and man or human beings. It has some gigantic
epic designs. I feel that it shows us a revolt between Satan and God. So, in
simple terms, what I understood was if we disobey God we will be punished and
will be given under the control of Satan just like Adam & Eve. We may also
lose our blessings or rewards gifted by God as Adam & Eve were thrown out
of the Eden Garden.
