Description

Explore the intersection of theology and art in Milton and the Reformation Aesthetics of the Passion. While much scholarship on John Milton focuses on his theological beliefs, this study examines how those beliefs function as artistic questions. It looks at the precedents in Christian art that provided models for representing the divine within a reformed context. This work analyzes how Milton revised the passion tradition. By looking at his short poems from 1645 and his later epic works, the study shows how he replaced late medieval crucifixion representations with a living, obedient, and subservient Son. Readers will find a deep analysis of how Milton uses a poetic vocabulary of fragmentation and omission to develop his alternative passion. This book is an essential resource for those studying literary theory, the history of Christian traditions, and the evolution of poetic imagery in the Reformation era.
