    The War in Heaven: Milton’s Non-Pacifism and Purpose While John Milton’s Paradise Lost deals with many interesting theological concepts and issues‚ I find the War in Heaven to be one of the most controversial subjects of the epic poem. Miltonists such as Ronald Bedford and Arnold Stein argue that the War in Heaven is largely a myth‚ an epic mockery of conflict. Others‚ like Stella P. Revard and Robert Thomas Fallon‚ take the opposite stance and vehemently claim that the war is far from a myth and

    • 3 Pages

    A Crime of Fate In Paradise Lost‚ Adam and Eve commit the first sin‚ and from this point on‚ all other sins are mere copies of this. Alexander Pope uses this to his benefit when he depicts the crime in The Rape of the Lock. By alluding to Milton’s work‚ Pope is able to comically refer to the cutting of a lock of hair as a tragic and epic event. In doing this‚ he paradoxically assumes that the crime is not one of personal fault‚ but one fated to happen by God‚ just as in Paradise Lost
