Paradise Lost is John Milton’s epic poem about the fall of humanity, the rebellion of Satan, and the loss of Eden. Beginning with Satan and the fallen angels in Hell, the poem follows their attempt to corrupt God’s creation by tempting Adam and Eve. Through grand poetic language, Milton explores free will, obedience, pride, temptation, justice, and redemption. The work presents complex portrayals of good and evil while examining humanity’s relationship with divine authority. Widely regarded as one of the greatest works of English literature, Paradise Lost remains a profound meditation on sin, responsibility, suffering, and hope.
