    Good vs. Evil Milton's Paradise Lost John Milton divided the characters in his epic poem Paradise Lost into two sides, one side under God representing good, and the other side under Satan representing evil and sin.

  • Satan As The Hero Of Paradise Lost
    1,689 words
    Satan: The True Hero of Paradise Lost The identity of the true protagonist in Paradise Lost is a mystery. One would gather that Milton, a Puritan, would have no problem casting God as the hero, and Satan as the antagonist.

God and his Son have no conflict, and Adam's story does not really begin until the Fall of Man. Therefore, Milton was forced to select Satan as ...

  • Angel Addresses Daniel
    1,894 words
    The final three chapters of Daniel consist of one long narrative. They record the final vision given to this prophet of God. Chapter 10 introduces the vision, giving an amazing 'behind the scenes' look at the spiritual conflict of which Daniel was a part. The Bible plainly reveals that life in our universe exists on two planes: the material and the spiritual. The unseen world is just as real as that which we see. Moreover, many of the struggles that take place in this world are influenced by con...

    The Origin of Satan Elaine begins she assumed that Jewish and Christian perceptions of invisible beings had to do mainly with the moralization of society (Pagals XVI), which brings us to the ability to interpret events such as illness or natural disasters as an act of God's will.

Some Christians attributed events such as natural disasters not as God's will but as Satan's doing. Although Satan,...

    Satan as Human Fools as Godly Milton Paradise Lost is one of the most unique works from the Renaissance period. Bringing a fresh perspective to the Satan / God conflict that until the time of its authorship, had not been represented, that is, the perspective of Satan himself. Satan is presented as a bit of a fool, reacting more as a human being, which provides a comic element of identity in the rebellion against "Heaven". However, it suggests the operation of the weak or suggestive side of human...

  • Satan And The Fall Of Man
    926 words
    The words I chose to concentrate the most on in Milton's Paradise Lost is omnipotence and omniscient. We come across these words several times in the course of the story and it is always referring to God which is understanding since he is all-powerful, all-knowing. We first hear it from the narrator of the story in book one, ? Who durst defy the omnipotent to arms (line 49).? when he is referring to the fall of Satan. We hear the word again from Beelzebub, ? Leader of those armies bright, which ...
