Next to William Shakespeare, John Milton survives in the literary-critical tradition as perhaps the most influential writer in British history, in part because his writing allows readers a way in to the complex social and political movements of mid-seventeenth-century Britain. But the uniqueness of the historical moment in which Milton lived has led to a number of critical questions, both about his writing and about the literary-critical practice of periodization: was Milton the last great poet of the Renaissance or the first literary writer of the Restoration? What were Milton's politics, exactly, how did his politics align with his religious beliefs, and how did his poetry and prose relate to his beliefs? Is it possible to divorce Milton's writing from his political and religious beliefs? This course will not only look closely at Milton's writing, but will seek to clarify the vexing place that Milton assumes in British literary history.
