Excerpt from Milton and Liberty Milton's political writing posses more than a biographical value - they have a message for own time. The more democracy spreads the more it is to be desired that the people should be so inspired and guided that they will make a noble use of their freedom. Such inspiration and guidance are found pre-eminently in Milton. The people who follow his doctrine of liberty will make more of duties than of rights, and value rights mainly as the means of performing duties. They will use their power, not to compete with one another for material well-being or any private advantage, but for mutual service and the common good. Without such an ideal, democracy will only, as Mazzini has said, "produce egotists who will carry the old passions and desires into the new order of things."

Excerpt from Milton's Areopagitica: A Speech for the Liberty of Unlicensed Printing The notes accompanying this Edition were compiled for the use of those of my own pupils who are candidates for the Oxford Local Examinations: they are published because I know that the want of a school-edition of this treatise has been very generally felt. They are mainly taken from sources obvious and easily accessible, and make no pretensions to original or extensive research. I have endeavoured to make them as brief, as exact, and as complete as possible, bearing in mind, first the disinclination of young pupils to consult books of reference for themselves, however accessible; and, secondly the increasing number of students of English Literature to whom the Classical Dictionary is not a familiar book in daily use. Much, help has been received from the notes to Holt White's very elaborate Edition (London, 1819). About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Milton's Paradise Lost This sonnet is one of the most' splendid acts of homage ever paid by one great poet to another. It was written during the great war of a hundred years ago, the struggle against the devouring am bitiou of Napoleon. It is dated 1802, a time of facile jubilation, no doubt, to those who did not or could not look ahead, but a time of utter gloom to one who, like Wordsworth, exalted the war as a holy war for great principles of Liberty and Good Faith.

Excerpt from John Milton: His Life and Times, Religious and Political Opinions The former biographers of Milton have exhibited him principally in his character as a poet, but have obscured his features as a patriot, a protestant, and non-conformist. The writer has attempted to give an accurate and full-length portrait, in all those respects, of this most eminent of our countrymen. For the purpose of accomplishing this design, he has made considerable extracts from the prose writings of Milton, by which, in a good degree, he appears as his own biographer.

Excerpt from Milton Yet in the England that produced and shaped him, he was a misfit. His peculiar and characteristic brand of classicism, romanticism, puritanism, modernism, individualism, Hebraism, Hellenism, Republicanism, egoism, indignation, sensuous aesthe'ticism, and pas sion for a liberty of speech and thought that had not so far been conceived but by the few, made him an arrogant, self-dedicated solitary, a superb and mon strous alien.

Excerpt from Milton's Considerations Touching the Likeliest Means to Remove Hirelings Out of the Church: With a Preface on the Prose Writings of Milton John milton, undoubtedly One of the very greatest literary or nameute of his country, has owed his celebrity among us hitherto chiefly to his poetry. As a poet, he has merited more than his fame, high as it is. His Comus is the most perfectly beau tiful of dramatic poems; and his Paradise Lost, to say nothing of the extent to which it has contributed to human improvement, by the religious and moral sentiments which it contains, is con fessedly the prince of epics. But the prose works of Milton have as yet been very inadecpliately appreciated they have been won derfully little known. Ow many are there even among what ma be called the reading part of the community, who never heard, tih very recently at least, of Milton as a prose author at all? There are passages in the prose writings of John Milton which want only the form Of verse in order to their equalling, if not surpassing, as poetry, the most admired efi'usions of his genius in the Para dise Lost. But this is their smallest praise: they have merit of a. Difi'erent and, we will venture to add, of a higher order. They are instinct with the noblest spirit, and the most uncompromising principles of civil and religious liberty. Milton may be said to be the p ilosopher of freedom, as Bacon is of physical and mental science. He goes to the core of the subject. He consults only with reason and, especially with' reference to religious liberty, the Word of God. His writings (sure token of truth and greatness) are, after the lapse of nearly two hundred years, useful, applicable, and full of light to the existing generation of mankind. The world is yet onlyi'endeavouring to near his standard with slow, and timorous, and feeble steps. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Life and Times of John Milton It may be thought by some, that the following Memoir of the Life and Times of Milton is rendered unnecessary by the numerous biographies of the patriot and poet already extant. There is certainly no lack of these, in point of number; but there is not one amongst them, in which Milton's character as a political writer is so fully exhibited and so justly appreciated, as the writer of the following memoir has long felt to be desirable. A recent editor of Milton's Prose Works has justly observed, that Milton has been imprisoned in the temple of the Muses; we may add, that his biographers, generally, have been more disposed to do the office of jailors than to set him at liberty, and make the world acquainted with his political character and patriotic claims.

Excerpt from The Complete Poetical Works of John Milton WE are aided in the study of Milton's life by the sharpness of line which separates the three main epochs of his history: his life of student ease, during which he was preparing himself with consecration for his poetic vocation; his life of public service, when he put behind him his poetic ambitions and threw himself with fanatical ardor into the struggle for liberty; and his old age, when, blind and discredited, he sat down amid the wreck of everything for which he had given his best twenty years, to write the poem which from early youth he had felt it his mis sion to leave to the nation. Milton's youth was singularly sweet and Sheltered. He was born in London on the 9th of December, 1608, the son of John Milton, a scrivener or solicitor do ing business at the Sign of the Spread Eagle in Bread Street. It is worth noting that for two generations at least the Miltons had exhibited intense partisanship in the religious disputes which agitated the nation. Richard Milton, the poet's grand father, had been a stubborn Catholic recusant under Elizabeth, and John Milton, the poet's father, had broken with his family in order to join the Puritans. The Puri tanism of the home in Bread Street was not, however, of an ascetic or unlovely type. The father was an accomplished musician, of some note as a composer, and could even on occasion try his hand at poetry. This mellow atmosphere of taste and cultivation, spiritualized by a sincere piety, united with larger circumstances to enrich life for the young poet. We must remember that in Milton's childhood Shakespeare was still alive, that at the Mermaid Tavern, probably in the very street where the scrivener's house stood, Ben Jonson held his merry meetings, and that most of the stalwart figures which had made the reign of the Virgin Queen illustrious were still to be seen about the streets of London. There was as yet hardly a hint of the passing away of those spacious times, of the spirit of romance and adventure, which had filled Elizabethan England. His nature, there fore, was in no danger of being starved at the outset, as it must have been if his birth had fallen a few decades farther on in the struggle between the old and the new, when Puritanism had narrowed and hardened itself in order to project itself more forcibly against its enemies.
