John Milton was an English poet, whose rich verse was a powerful
influence on succeeding English poets. His prose was devoted to the
defense of civil and religious liberty.
Milton is often considered the greatest English poet after Shakespeare.
His poetry was dramatic, romantic, and deeply moving. He had a gift
for satire, swift narration, and vivid description.
Paradise Lost, published in 1667 is considered the greatest epic poem of
early modern English literature.
