About this audiobook

"Paradise Lost" is an epic poem written by the 17th-century English poet John Milton. First published in 1667, the poem tells the biblical tale of the fall of man, detailing the rebellion of Satan and his followers, their expulsion from Heaven, and the consequences of Adam and Eve's sin in the Garden of Eden. Written in blank verse, the poem grapples with intricate theological issues, including fate, free will, and the nature of evil, while also exploring the human condition and the complexities of temptation and redemption. "Paradise Lost" is considered one of the most important works in the English literary canon.

John Milton

John Milton (1608-1657) was an English poet and intellectual. Milton worked as a civil servant for the Commonwealth of England and wrote during a time of religious change and political upheaval. Having written works of great importance and having made strong political decisions, Milton was of influence both during his life and after his death. He was an innovator of language, as he would often introduce Latin words to the English canon, and used his linguistic knowledge to produce propaganda and censorship for the English Republic’s foreign correspondence. Milton is now regarded as one of the best writers of the English language, exuding unparalleled intellect and talent.
