[rephaim23]

Words cannot sufficiently describe this. Fantastic!

[TruthUnadulterated]

I gotta say, "Well done!"

On November 23 1644 - AEROPAGITICA, a pamphlet decryuing censorship, written by JOHN MILTON (1608-1674), is published. English Classic author, essayist and poet wrote the greatest English epic poem "Paradise Lost".

[MadTab125]

The romantic piano is terribly anachronistic and I can't understand why the text has to be in block capitals. It's a bit like photoshopping a Van Gogh to remove all the wavy bits! Having spent 5 years of my life writing a guidebook to Milton's amazing epic, it pains me to see it poorly served.

Miltons Paradise Lost is truly epic, and i can't wait for the movie

[chaderdley]

NICE!

I am reading this in my literature class. This video makes it come alive. It sends chills through me. You did a great job. This made it a joy to read the epic poem. . Thanks.

Excellent melange of music, imagery, and text!

The forbidden fruit wasn't an apple

[tylerofdenmark]

@Imstllhere I think the use of the apple conveys to more people the general idea of fruit. Many people wouldn't recognize a date, etc., which is what the forbidden fruit would have been akin to. I think it's use is only figurative, not literal.

This is very good work. It evokes each aspect of the mythology Milton was tapping into with great use of images and music.

[CABEZA872006]

This work is divine.

Words can be so powerful...

5:43 I have to feel sooo sorry for Adam and Eve as they step out into the world to wander the strange world until they find a place to settle down and survive.

[cattebout]

Which beautiful music is this please?

[Guinizelli777]

A true masterpiece!

[dylansuppiah]

a masterpiece of work! both parts I & II!

[blackbear84]

Apart from the excellent imagery, this music is the singularly most amazing aspect of the video that helps drive the story home.

Would you be able to provide where you found the songs?

[marHAVIK]

@blackbear84 Why does everybody ask about the music, stop being lazy and look at the dang description box.

[Keatsodes]

This, coupled with Part I, constitutes a powerful and moving piece of work. Who'd have thought one could do justice to Milton's masterpiece in just 12 minutes!

[asianpeterson24]

Beautiful!
