Milton's Literary Milieu

The purpose of this work is to foster a more just appreciation of Milton's relation to the literature of a complex and vital age. The first part examines the relation of Milton's poetry to certain contemporary works and older works that were then available, while the second part analyzes the relation of some of Milton's pamphlets to controversial writing during his age.
