  • 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".

  • 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

  • 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.

  • @Imstllhere lol

  • @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.

  • Excellent melange of music, imagery, and text!

  • The forbidden fruit wasn't an apple
