  • he even made it sound like he was trying to rescue his followers.

  • Actually those are all good points in the analysis of the poem. And one of the chief criticisms of the poem AND Milton by scholars over the past centuries is that he made Satan into a very sympathetic character. But the poem is still considered by most scholars as the greatest production of the English language.

  • Satan is not fictional character . ... and never be a satan follower..... until you lived you can be saved. but when you die... you will burn in hell.

    again its not too late.

  • @holtaprid it appears so because it wasn't invented by man

  • @holtaprid invented by Milton . He's not even really in the Bible, is he?

  • i BELIEVE Satan was actually real not in that interpretation but, i believe it was strictly an Alien Extraterritorial that was bad

  • where can i download john miltons paradise lost movie plss help....?

  • miltonsdemons.comli.com

  • I find Milton boring. Mrs. Milton found him boring too. He's a little bit long-winded, he doesn't translate very well into our generation, and his jokes are terrible....But that doesn't relieve you of your responsibility for this material! Listen, I'm not joking. This is my job!

  • Its easy to relate to Satan because we all share the same characteristics. Pride,jealously, hate, lust, vanity. Im not proud of it but it's true.

  • Of that passage, I like more the idea that the mind can make a hell of heaven or a heaven of hell. What if you get to heaven and you don't like it? They never talk about that in church.
