Paradise Regained, With a Review of Studies of Verse Form (A Variorum Commentary on the Poems of John Milton, Volume 4)

In Paradise Regained, having successfully tempted Adam and Eve, forcing their departure from the Garden of Eden, Satan sets out to tempt again ? this time Jesus himself as he comes to the end of his 40 days in the desert. The magisterial poetry of Milton enriches the encounter and, while not matching the greatness achieved in Paradise Lost, provides drama and depth. Paradise Regained is a companion to both abridged and unabridged productions of Paradise Lost.
