  • The New Milton Criticism

    Open AccessRoni Strier, John Rogers et al.BOOKNew Milton Criticism2012

    The New Milton Criticism seeks to emphasize ambivalence and discontinuity in Milton's work and interrogate the assumptions and certainties in previous Milton scholarship.

Milton would be no stranger to such an observation inasmuch as, in An Apology against a Pamphlet, he insists that the poet "ought him seife to bee a true Poem" (YP, 1:890); in Areopagitica, urges that "a good Booke is the pretious life-blood of a master spirit" (Y…
