Abstract:

The thesis has two parts. Part One surveys the debate on how to define Christian obedience and Milton�s prose contributions to that discourse. In the century leading up to Milton�s prose writings there was much debate in England over how to define spiritual obedience. Civil authorities argued that matters of religion fell within state jurisdiction and that an individual�s spiritual obedience should be subject to outward scrutiny and external control; but these definitions were contested by Protestant reformers. Chapter One traces the issue up to Milton�s contributions. Chapter Two traces Mil

Abstract:

The setting of Milton’s great sequel is puzzling, being called a desert and a “waste wild” (IV. 523) repeatedly and at the same time including descriptions of protective oaks and woody mazes. These conflicting descriptions conjure up several questions: In which environment does the epic take place? Because Milton is so detailed in his adaptations of biblical narrative the inclusion of trees is quite perplexing. While he does tend to expand biblical narrative quite frequently – e.g. Paradise Lost – he rarely initiates a change without just cause. The crux of this particular change centers on wh

Abstract:

This thesis handles a number of passages in the poems of Dryden and Pope which show that both poets had been deeply impressed by <i>Paradise Lost</i>. These passages are so various and <i>numerous</i> (this is one of the principal claims to novelty of this thesis) that it is no longer possible to maintain that Milton was in different ways an isolated figure. Secondly, the effect on both poets of these passages they admired in <i>Paradise Lost</i> is such as to justify the claim that in important respects Milton <i>made</i> Dryden and Pope. The principal point of this thesis is to provide evide

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the poetry of four Caribbean poets: Edward Brathwaite, Claire Harris, Olive Senior, and David Dabydeen. A presentation of the background issues which shape their voices of protest and prophecy, stemming from the colonization of the Caribbean region, governs the discussion. While the African ancestry of the poets Brathwaite, Harris, and Senior provides the cohesion of this critical analysis, Dabydeen, of East Indian ancestry, fits within the matrix of this analysis due to the thematic centering of his poetry on the issues of dislocation and dispossession surrounding t

Full text

Abstract:

How does one discuss action in John Milton's poetry? In Milton's Sonnet XIX, the concluding line reads, "They also serve who only stand and waite." Critics have examined Milton's writing and its relation to the theopolitical context of early modern England and have debated over the poet's political stance. Does "stand and wait" suggest a quietist approach? The poet's curious line indeed suggests a specific type of activity in the face of the theological and political turmoil of seventeenth century England. However, it advocates patient activity. The problem then revolves around wh

Abstract:

Discipline was an enduring concept in the works of John Milton (1608-1674), yet its meaning shifted over the course of his career: initially he held that it denoted ecclesiastical order, but gradually he turned to representing it as self-willed pious action. My thesis examines this transformation by analysing Milton’s complex engagement in two distinct periods: the 1640s and the 1660s-70s. In Of Reformation (1641), Milton echoed popular contemporary demands for a reformation of church discipline, but also asserted through radical literary experimentation that poetry could discipline the nation

Abstract:

This thesis examines the political dimension and underlying continuities of John Milton's use of biblical and reformation history in Eikonklastes, Paradise Lost, and Paradise Regain 'd. In Chapter I, the rhetorical tactics of Eikonoklastes-particularly the prefatory material-represent an attempt to outline a different notion of civic and spiritual security, independent of monarchical oversight, and are presented as crucial contexts for the political ambitions of Milton's later epic poetry. The discussion of Paradise Lost as a text deeply interested in the contemporaneous rhetoric of security i

Abstract:

Ecosystem services, the benefits humans derive from nature, represents a radical departure in our perception of linked environmental and social problems and the actions we need to undertake to address those urgent challenges. Due to its increasingly widespread policy prominence, understanding and appraising its conceptual and practical benefits whilst at the same time acknowledging its potential pitfalls represents an important endeavour. Comprising seven parts and sixteen chapters, the first five parts of the thesis outline the main environmental and social challenges we face, presenting the

In the first chapter, I will define and establish the notions of hope and despair in the Christian context by examining the configurations of these two ideas in the Bible, fathers of the church, and representative reformation theologians. A broader contextual study will include renaissance poets and prose writers an

Abstract:

John Milton begins his Second Defence of the English People by stressing the universal importance of gratitude: "In the whole life and estate of man the first duty is to be grateful to God." Peter Medine has shown the prominence of gratitude in Paradise Lost, but scholars have not fully appreciated the role of this virtue elsewhere in Milton's writing. This thesis is an attempt to redress that oversight with reference to A Mask and Paradise Regained, while also answering a question that Medine raises but does not satisfactorily resolve: Why gratitude? Both texts have been read as responses to

Abstract:

This dissertation argues that Milton develops a coherent and consistent literary ecclesiology throughout his prose works and "Paradise Regained". The authority, ministry, discipline, and jurisdiction of the church are all transformed by Milton’s literary humanism. Chapter one shows that because the textual and christological domains are analogous and sometimes identical in Milton’s prose, reading scripture and writing in response to it are sacramental and liturgical events performed for the universal church. Chapter two outlines the assumptions about reading and writing which make the Word
