Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Paradise Regain´d, Vol. 1: A Poem in Four Books; To Which Is Added Samson Agonistes and Poems Upon Several Occasions It hath been recommended to me by some great persons, as well as by several friends, to complete the edition of Milton´s poetical works: for tho´ the Paradise Lost be the flower of epic poety, and the noblest effort of genius; yet here are other poems which are no less excellent in their kind, and if they have not that sublimity and majesty, are at least equally beautiful and pleasing to the imagination. And the fame method that was taken in the publication of the Paradise Lost, is pursued in this edition of the Paradise Regain´d and other poems, first to exhibit the true and genuin text according to Milton´s own editions, and then to illustrate it with notes critical and explanatory of various authors. Of the Paradise Regain´d and Samson Agonistes there was only one edition in Milton´s life-time, in the year 1671; and this we have made our standard, correcting only what the author himself would have corrected. Dr. Bentley pronounces it to be without faults, but there is a large table of Errata at the end, which instead of being emended have rather been augmented in the following editions, and were never corrected in any edition that I have seen before the present. Of the other poems there were two editions in Milton´s lifetime, the first in 1645 before he was blind, and the other with some additions in 1673.
