作 者：弥尔顿
《失乐园》是17世纪英国桂冠诗人弥尔顿(1608—1674)的代表作。弥尔顿在世时首先是一位伟大的精神斗土，早年投身干英国资产阶级革命。到了晚年，备受政治上的失利和双目失明双重打击的弥尔顿却仍然保持了坚定的斗志。作为学问渊博的人文主义者，身体力行的清教徒革命者，他将满腔激情投入到下自己的文学作品中，通过口述的方式写作出了三部文学史上不朽的长篇诗作；《失乐园》，《复乐园》，《力士参孙》。
《失乐园》是描写人类堕落的长篇史诗，讲述了人祖亚当和夏蛙在伊甸园中原奉纯真无邪，因魔魁撒旦的诱惑而反抗上帝的旨意，以致干堕落致罪的过程。诗中的主角是撒旦(也以恶魔之名出现)是第一个背叛上帝，发动天国叛乱的堕落天使，他的同伴也是破逐出天国的天使。为了唆使亚当与夏蛙反抗上帝，撒旦经历了各种危险和考验。在这部复杂的作品中，人类失去乐园的故事表达了作者的清教主义，对撒旦的描写则倾注着他的革命思想，正是那些歌颂叛逆者的响亮诗行构成了诗中最动人的篇章。
这本书首先包含了18世纪英国天才的诗人，画家威廉·布莱克为《失乐园》绘制的部分插图。与弥尔顿相似，布莱克一生都将其激进……
Written at a time of personal and political crisis in Milton\'s ca-reer (1658-65), Paradise Lost is the greatest epic poem in English literature. It had an immense influence on the English Roman-tics and, through them, on modern poetry This Norton Critical Edition is based on the 1674 edition of the poem, the last to ap-pear in Milton\'s lifetime, with a few emendations and adoptions from the first edition and from the scribal manuscript, as noted.Gordon Teskey provides readers with a freshly edited text in-tended for those approaching Milton for the first time. Spelling and punctuation have been modernized, the latter within the limits imposed by Milton\'s syntax. The text is accompanied by an introduction, an account of Milton\'s life, ample annotations, a glossary,and suggestions for further reading.
"Sources and Backgrounds" includes selections from the Bible and from Milton\'s prose writings, including his greatest prose work, Areopagitica, in its entirety.
An unusually rich "Criticism" section collects forty-eight di-verse commentaries and interpretations, culled from the enor-mous body of scholarly writing on the poem. Classic assess-ments are provided by John Dryden, Voltaire, Samuel Johnson,William Blake, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Percy Bysshe Shelle Victor Hugo, and T. S. Eliot, among others. Modern contribu-tors include C. S. Lewis, William Empson, Douglas Bush,Northrop Frye, Barbara Lewalski, Balachandra Rajan, Stanley Fish, Mary Ann Radzinowicz, Christopher Ricks, Regina Schwartz, Julia Walker, and Helen Vcndler.
