This masterly edition contains all of Milton's English poems, with the exception of Paradise Lost, together with translations and texts of all his Latin, Italian and Greek poems. First published in 1968 - and substantially updated in 1996 - John Carey's edition has, with Alastair Fowler's Paradise Lost, established itself as the pre-eminent edition of Milton's poetry, both for the student and the general reader. Hailed as 'a very Bible of a Milton', the extensive notes and headnotes serve to illuminate the wealth of Milton's allusions and to synthesize the judgements and disagreements of a bewildering array of modern critics. Each headnote sets out details of composition and context which will deepen any reader's appreciation of the poetry, while also providing a concise overview of the critical and scholarly debates that continue to flame around the work of one of the greatest poets in the English language. Steeped in learning though it undoubtedly is, it is also an unfailing light to those who wish to plot their own path through the dazzling riches of Milton's imagination.

John Milton is, next to William Shakespeare, the most influential English poet, a writer whose work spans an incredible breadth of forms and subject matter. The Complete Poetry and Essential Prose of John Milton celebrates this author’s genius in a thoughtfully assembled book that provides new modern-spelling versions of Milton’s texts, expert commentary, and a wealth of other features that will please even the most dedicated students of Milton’s canon. Edited by a trio of esteemed scholars, this volume is the definitive Milton for our time. In these pages you will find all of Milton’s verse, from masterpieces such as Paradise Lost–widely viewed as the finest epic poem in the English language–to shorter works such as the Nativity Ode, Lycidas,, A Masque and Samson Agonistes. Milton’s non-English language sonnets, verses, and elegies are accompanied by fresh translations by Gordon Braden. Among the newly edited and authoritatively annotated prose selections are letters, pamphlets, political tracts, essays such as Of Education and Areopagitica, and a generous portion of his heretical Christian Doctrine. These works reveal Milton’s passionate advocacy of controversial positions during the English Civil War and the Commonwealth and Restoration periods. With his deep learning and the sensual immediacy of his language, Milton creates for us a unique bridge to the cultures of classical antiquity and medieval and Renaissance Christianity. With this in mind, the editors give careful attention to preserving the vibrant energy of Milton’s verse and prose, while making the relatively unfamiliar aspects of his writing accessible to modern readers. Notes identify the old meanings and roots of English words, illuminate historical contexts–including classical and biblical allusions–and offer concise accounts of the author’s philosophical and political assumptions. This edition is a consummate work of modern literary scholarship.

Excerpt from Milton's Shorter Poems The aim of this edition of Milton's Shorter Poems is, primarily, to supply the pupil, by means of notes and questions, the necessary information and stimulus for the understanding of the poems studied. No attempt has been made to produce a learned book. There is already an abundance of such editions of Milton; and the present editor does not believe that the apparatus of the scholar is necessary or even desir able for the high school pupil. Consequently there are few references to other authors, and the necessary explanations are made as brief as possible. That the pupil may be helped as much as possible, the notes are put at the bottom of the page where they will be immediately available; and many questions are inserted to stimulate thought and enable the student to work, out the meaning for himself. The teacher has also been kept in mind. The questions at the bottom of the page, primarily for the pupil, will suggest many other questions to bring out the meaning of the text; the questions at the back of the book will suggest ways of bringing out the larger aspects of the poems as to form and subject matter; while the outlines will serve both teacher and pupil as a convenient framework for study of the relations of the different parts of each poem. The editor assumes that the teacher will be familiar with other editions of these poems. Huntington's (ginn Neilson's (scott, Foresman and Trent's (long man, Green Co.) editions are especially useful and have been referred to freely in preparing this edition. One sug gestion has been taken from Parrott and Long's English Poems from Chaucer to Kipling. Of the complete editions of Milton's English poems, Masson's, the so-called standard, is too conjectural in its notes to be trusted, Browne's (clarendon Press Series) is perhaps as satisfactory as any other.
