By A customer (Redwood City, CA)
Contrary to what other reviews and summaries might claim, this edition contains neither the complete work nor passages from "Paradise Regained" (aka "Paradise Found").
By Diana (SC, USA)
This is an authoritative edition for anyone interested in John Milton. It includes poetry, prose, and commentary.
By
Milton deserves better than this. Orgel and Goldberg boast that they have produced a radical Milton, but all they really offer is rehashed Alastair Fowler, without Fowler's erudition or eloquence. Many of the notes are just plain ignorant. There are better editions out there.
By
This is an excellent edition of John Milton's works; it includes all the major works (Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained, and Samson Agonistes) and several of his sonnets, other poems, and prose tracts. The notes are thourough, although they are arranged at the back rather than footnoted. This cleans up the body of the text, but also requires constant flipping of pages. And the pages do not hold together well. After a few weeks of use, mine were beginning to fall out! It is a good, affordable volume; but if you are planning a serious study, expect it to fall apart sooner or later.
