| | 1 | Author: | Himes, John A. | Add | | | Title: | The Plan of Paradise Lost  | | | | Published: | 1997 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | | Description: | IN all the attempts to trace the origin of Paradise Lost to
the Caedmon, to Andreini, to Grotius, to Du Bartas, and to a score of
others, no claim, so far as I am aware, has been advanced to having
found in any, or in all, of them the entire plan upon which Milton
worked and which he filled out. Caedmon is said to have helped here,
Andreini there, and Du Bartas in a third place, but no one of them and
not all of them together give in any just sense an explanation of the
existence of the great English epic. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
