    Milton vs Pope

    • 628 Words
    • 3 Pages

    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. “What dire offence from amorous causes springs‚ / What mighty contests rise from trivial things‚” (Pope‚ ll. 1-2).

Four of the popes within the church became perpetrators‚ Pope Boniface VII‚ Pope Alexander VI‚ Pope Gregory XI‚ and Pope John XXIII.

    Though Pope Urban II promised a heaven for the Franks and expanded Christianity‚ I believe that his message was frightening rather than inspiring. I have come to this conclusion because in an ideal mind‚ a pope‚ a man of the church is thought to be pure and pious.

In his appeal to the Franks‚ Pope Urban II begins his speech in an ominous and foreboding tone. This

He terrorized the Danes for 12 years‚ robbing them of Heorot which represented home‚ royal might‚ and safety. Finally‚ he attacked Beowulf and his men with the intent to murder them. Since he murdered dozens of men with no provocation‚ and showed every indication that he meant to continue doing so‚ I believe his death was justified. 2. Would you consider
