Se exploran las posibilidades intertextuales existentes entre la Utopía de Tomás Moro (1478-1535) y algunos textos en prosa y verso del poeta y polemista John Milton (1608- 1674). La discusión se da a partir de la novela Milton in America, del británico Peter Ackroyd (1949), en la que se sugieren ciertas relaciones (y controversias) confesionales, literarias e ideológicas entre los pensadores. A partir de ahí, se hace una revisión de pasajes en los que la presencia de Moro en la obra de Milton, tema casi inexplorado académicamente, resulta más evidente.

Abstract:
A fama internacional de John Milton (1608-74) se deve a seu épico Paradise Lost (1667; 2.ed.1674), cujo explícito objetivo é “justificar aos homens os procedimentos de Deus” (01.26), ou seja: promover uma justificativa da queda, responsabilizando a humanidade por sua ruína, isentando a divina providência e lhe confirmando a misericórdia. O artigo propõe que se pense Paradise Lost como um experimento mental centrado no conceito de livre-arbítrio: a estratégia de Milton consistiria em manipular ou inserir episódios nas possíveis lacunas do básico enredo bíblico que lhe serve de base, que preench

An overview of the prose writings of John Wesley, and the hymn writing of his brother Charles, shows that John Milton was an important influence on both men. A search of the literature indicates that critics have rarely noticed this, and although some work has been done on John's abridgement of Paradise Lost, there are no qualitative studies of its effect on the hymnody of Charles. Although the singing of hymns is a potential way of influencing language and doctrine of all singers, it is particularly important for people who have little other education.

As epic was considered a culturally comprehensive genre, so Spenser's Faerie Queene and Milton's Paradise Lost provide an effective locus for inquiry into literary representations of body marks in the Renaissance, and hence of the body itself. While grounded on central principles of Renaissance poetics such as delightful teaching, utpictura poesis, and catharsis, Spenser's and Milton's graphic accounts of wounds and diverse other types of body marks show corporeality can have positive import for the soul and heroic identity, just as they are shaped in part by bodily experienees.

Abstract:
Since the rise of individualism in the seventeenth century there has been increasing pressure on individuals to define themselves in the public eye. This has led to the recent phenomena of identity politics and self-branding. Yet how is one's true identity - if such a thing exists - ever expressed externally? How do individuals deal with the inner and outer aspects of identity? These are some of the issues which impinge upon the ethics of authenticity. This thesis investigates the development of the concept of the authentic self from its inception in the modern period to the postmodern. Throug

No substantial studies, at least to my knowledge, have yet been dedicated either to Milton's or to Shelley's extensive poetic use of the grotesque. This omission surprises me, especially given the voluminous critical attention both authors receive. Neither Milton nor Shelley's grotesquerie can be viewed as the basis of artistic method or artistic achievement as we might with, say, Rabelais, or Poe, or even Kafka. And neither Milton nor Shelley is self-consciously an artist of "the grotesque." In fact, Milton, from his seventeenth century perspective, would scarcely have regarded the term as be

Abstract:
Abstract John Milton (1608-74), the last great poet of the English Renaissance, was educated at St Paul’ s School (c.1620-4, under Alexander Gill), and at Christ’ s College Cambridge (1625-32). After six years spent at his father’ s house in the country, where he gave himself up ‘ with the most complete leisure to reading through the Greek and Latin writers’ -a period in which he published Comus. A masque (1637), and Lycidas (1638)-he spent most of 1638---g in Italy, being accepted into the Svogliati academy in Florence, and meeting many Italian writers and musicians (including Dati, Frescobaldi, and the imprisoned Galileo). In 1640 he began tutoring private pupils in London, and became involved in controversies on behalf of the Puritans against the Church of England, publishing a series of tracts, including Areopagitica (1644). In 1649 the Council of State appointed him Secretary for the Foreign Tongues, with the duty of writing official defences of Cromwell’ s policies. Imprisoned in 1659, after the defeat of the Parliamentarians, he was allowed to resume private life, publishing Paradise Lost in 1667, Paradise Regained and Samson Agonistes in 1671.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter ties the matter of biopolitics to that of socio-sexual identity, arguing for their dual centrality in mid-seventeenth-century debates over that which might initially seem most different from it, companionate marriage. The chapter contends that rogue sexuality offers a template for marriage organized around desire rather than socioeconomic advantage, bringing the often-overlooked category of lower social status into the histories of early modern marriage and sexuality. I then turn to John Milton’s divorce tracts (1643–5) and Paradise Lost (1667, 1674), arguing that Milton’s radical theory of divorce appropriates rogue marriage in arguing for the legitimacy of temporary marriage based on affinity, but does so in order to render marital sexuality the property of the socially elite. Moreover, I argue that Milton uses rogue sexuality to manipulate readerly desire during his celebration of marital sexuality in Paradise Lost. The chapter thus shows how the different elements of rogue sexuality—identity and appropriation; reproduction and biopolitics; fantasy and metarepresentation—collide to help shape companionate marriage, one of the early modern period’s most enduring legacies, and a central node of modern biopolitical governance.

Abstract:
Before he became a revolutionary general and the nation’s first president, George Washington was a destroyer of wetlands. In 1763, he surveyed the edges of a million-acre expanse of wet forest that lay along the Virginia–North Carolina state line. He described the Great Dismal Swamp as a “glorious paradise” full of wildfowl and game. Still, he seemed to have no qualms about dismantling Eden. In 1764 he applied with five partners for a charter to create a business called “Adventurers for draining the great Dismal Swamp.” Their goal was to chop down and sell the timber from majestic cypress and cedar trees, then to plow the land for crops. The brutal work of digging drainage ditches and canals was done by slaves. By the time of the Revolutionary War, the Adventurers Company was producing 8 million shingles a year for sale—valuable slivers of wood cut from the swamp’s enormous bald cypress trees. There was profit in undoing wetlands. Draining a wetland also seemed to make a place healthier. People who colonized swampy land were plagued by a dreadful illness, one that often killed, and left survivors with recurring bouts of a bonerattling fever. Malaria—the name itself means “bad air”—was believed to be triggered by poisonous vapors rising from still waters. The drainage and destruction of wetlands was an unwritten founding principle of the US. The pattern began with some of the earliest European settlers. Well before the colonies won their independence, the loss of wetlands had led to pollution that changed the ecology of rivers and bays. Over the centuries, wetlands loss and water pollution have accelerated in tandem, driven by the need for farmland, the urge for profit, and the fear of disease. The history of these interwoven changes on land and underwater begins in the Chesapeake Bay, the site of the first permanent British colony in America. In the summer of 1608, Captain John Smith and the colonists of Jamestown were starving.
