Re-issue
Few writers have achieved the synthesis of art and idea
that was attained by John Milton in Paradise Lost. In that
work the poet addressed one of the most important
questions in philosophy and religion: How could God, if
he is omnipotent and wholly good, have made a world
in which there is so much evil? Milton tackled this
theological problem of evil not in a philosophical
treatise, but in a piece of literature
-
the great epic that
sets out to justify the ways of God to men.
In this book, Professor
Danielson
examines Paradise
Lost, focusing on Milton s treatment of creation, chaos,
predestination, free will, God s foreknowledge, the Fall
of Man, and the nature of human existence before the
Fall (including worship, work, sex, hospitality, and the
life of the mind). The author thereby not only lays a
systematic foundation for understanding Milton s
defense of the creator s justice and goodness but also
explores how the literary character of that defense gives
it a unique human vitality, dramatic consistency, and
logical coherence.
Milton s Good God is an interdisciplinary study, which
will lead the student of literature to a deeper apprecia¬
tion of Paradise Lost while drawing the student of
ideas to a fuller awareness of the importance of Milton s
work for the fields of philosophy, theology, and intellec¬
tual history.
