Paper Summary:
This paper describes Milton's "Paradise Lost" in which he tells a story of Satan in the Garden of Eden. The paper points out that Satan was clever enough to present evil as attractive for one reason to Eve, and for another reason to Adam. The author feels that Milton is demonstrating that evil does not just happen to us, we are active participants when we are seduced by evil.From the Paper:
"Milton use Creation's story of the Garden of Eden as a backdrop for a more complete version. In the Bible, God tells Adam and Eve they can eat anything except from the "fruit of the Tree of Good and Evil." In Milton's version of the story, Satan intends to use God's greatest creation to punish Him for kicking Satan out of Hell. Moreover, Satan wants God to know that He has not completely trapped Satan and that Satan can leave Hell and corrupt His human beings."More papers on Milton's "Paradise Lost":
