Description

In this course we shall explore Milton´s great epic. Special emphasis will be placed on the problem of evil and poetic theodicy: how does the epic define the character of Satan in order to "assert eternal providence and justify the ways of God to men"? How does Milton solve the problem of theodicy? And what would be the significance of a rational justification? Does Paradise Lost turn Christian faith into poetry, or does it subsume poetry under religion?
Literature will be announced at the beginning of term
